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 brush- 

 ing bees: no time is wasted in these disagreeable 

 operations: and no stings received in resentment of 

 such treatment; the 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 cleaned up by the bees inside 

 the liivo. before the honey is removed. Leading 

 Bee=keepers use the Porter Escape, and say that 

 withoiii a tri;il it is inipossibleto realize the amoutit 

 of vexatious, annoying, disagreeable woi'k that it 

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

 As in the past, this escape is manufactured by the 

 Porters, but The A. I. Root Co. h;is secured control 

 of the sale for tills country. Order of your dealer 

 or of 



THE A. I. ROOT CO., IVIedina, Ohio.

Don't Be Afraid to Buy 



those fine, tested Italian queens I am 

 offering for 65 cents, just because I 

 otter them so cheap. It is not on account 

 of any inferiority that I sell them so 

 cheap, but because I replace, every year, 

 all of my queens iti over one hundred 

 colonies, run for honey production, and 

 what I get for the old queens I consider 

 just like finding. A good many are sold 

 already, but there is a fine lot on hand 

 yet, equal to any in the country. A few 

 mismated ones at 30 cts. each.
