THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW

Advaimt^^es of 



BEE ESCAPES 



No sweat steals down the cheeks and aching 

 back of the tired bee-keeper, as the result of standing 

 in the hot sun, puffing, blowing, smoking and 

 brushing bees; no time is wasted in these disagree- 

 able operations, and no stings received in resent- 

 ment of such treatment; the honey is secured free 

 from black or even the taint of smoke; the cappings 

 are not injured by the gnawing of the bees; and rob- 

 bers stand no show whatever. If there are any 

 burr-combs, they are cleaned up by the bees inside 

 the hive, before the honey is removed. Leading 

 bee-keepers use the PORTER escape, and say that 

 without a trial it is impossible to realize the amount 

 of vexatious, annoying, disagreeable work that it 

 Saves. The cost is only 20 cts. each, or $2.25 per 

 dozen.

EXTRACTOR FOR SALE. 



At our Northern Michigan aciaries we have three 

 honey extractors As we don't extract until the 

 honey harvest is over, and at only one apiary at a 

 time, we find it an easy matter to move an extractor 

 from one yard to another, as we go with a double 

 team, and we find that we can easily dispense with 

 at least one of the machines— better have the money 

 put into more bees— so, we offer one of them for 

 sale. 



The machine is a four-frame, 'Langstroth) Root 

 Automatic, reversible. No 25. with a slip-gear. A 

 new machine now costs S25 00, but we will sell 

 this for S22 00, and it has been used only two 

 seasons and is practically anew machine.

We have been using the Dan-ze smokers in Our 

 Northern Michigan Apiaries, and like them very 

 well. My brother, Elmer, prefers them to any other. 

 Their good points are fairly set forth in the adver- 

 tisement in this isssue. The price is S 1 .25 postpaid, 

 but I will send the Review one year, and one of 

 these smokers, for only $1 .75.
