GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTRUE. 



June 1. 



A Grand Success. 



New Cowan Reversible 



Honey-Extractor. 



May be Reversed without Stopping the Machine. 



Strong, well made in every respect, light, and of conven- 

 ient size. The can is but little larger than that of the 

 Novice. The gear is beveled, and covered by an iron shield, 

 and the crank outside the can. Frank McNay, of Mauston, 

 Wis., a bee-keeper who produces tons and tons of extracted 

 honey, says of it: 



After carefully examining- and trying- the Cowan extractor, I 

 have failed to find a weak part, and I do not hesitate to say that 

 it is the best extractor made, both in regard to convenience and 

 durability, and I shall replace all of my five machines with the 

 Cowan as soon as possible. 



It is indorsed also by J. F. Mclntyre, an extensive ex- 

 tracted-honey producer in California: by W. Z. Hutchinson, 

 Dr. C. C. Miller, Dr. A. B. Mason, and others. 



Price all Complete, Japanned and Lettered, for L. Frame, $10.
