Advantages of Bee-Escapes. 



No sweat steals down the heated cheeks and ach- 

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

 in the hot sun putHng. blowing, smokitig. 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 the taint of smoke; the cappings are 

 not in.jured by the gnawiugs of bees; and robbers 

 stand no show whatever. If there are any broken 

 burr-combs they are cleaned up by the bees inside 

 the hive, before the lioney is removed. Leading 

 Bee=keepers use the Porter Escape, and say that 

 without a trial it is impossibleto realize the amount 

 of vexatious, annoying, disagreeable work that it 

 •saves. The cost is only 2u cts. each, or $2.2.5 per doz. 

 As in the past, this escape is manufactured by the 

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

 of the sale for this country. Ordei* of your dealer
