THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW 



BEE ESCAFI& 



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.

 In the latter the grate is under, that it may have a 

 full head of smoke ready on the job at a touch of 

 bellows. 



The air forced from the valveless metal- 

 bound bellows up and down the fire-grate gives a 

 combined hot and cold blast.

^opyiiHig 



Keeping a copy of every letter sent cut is a 

 necessity with any extensive business— it saves 

 endless disputes and many dollars. The most 

 common method is that of using a copying book, 

 dampening the leaves, laymg in the letters to be 

 copied, and applying pressure w th a screw-press. 



In a trade recently made, 1 have come into pos- 

 session of a letter copying press, size 9x11 inches. 

 As 1 already had such a press 1 don't need this one. 

 I inquired at our stationer's, and find that the price 

 of such a press is S8.40 This press of mine is 

 exactly as good as new, but I would be glad to sell 

 it for $5 00.
