Advantages of Bee-Escapes. 



No sweat steals down the heated cheeks and ach- 

 ing back of the bee-keeper as the result of standing- 

 in the hot sun puffing, blowing, smoking, and l)rush- 

 ingbees; no time is wasted in these disagreeable 

 operations; and no stings received in resentment of 

 such treatment; tlie honey is secured free from 

 black or even tlie taint of smoke; the cappings are 

 not injured by the gnawings of bees; and robbers 

 stand no show whatever. If there are any broken 

 burr-combs they are cleiined up by the bees i)iskle 

 the hive, lictore tlie honey is removed. Leading 

 Bee=keepers use the Porter Escape, and say tliat 

 without a trial it is impossible to realize the amount 

 of vexatious, annoying, disagreeable work that it 

 saves. Tlie cost is only 2(i cts. each, or $3.2.5 perdoz. 

 As in the past, this escape is manufactured by the 

 Porters, but The A. I. Root Co. hiis secured control 

 of the sale for this country. Order of your dealer 

 or of
