'*You Push the Slide; Nature 

 Does the Rest." 



Tlie first perfect and jtractical non- 

 swarming plan tliiit has ever been brought to 

 completion is found iit last. Nothing like it ever 

 done. I worked the plan on lOO colonies last 

 year (1893), and T do not make any statements at 

 random in my circular, as each point has been fully 

 tested. Tells you all about it. No hunting or cag- 

 ing- qutens, cutting cells, moving hives, or even 

 opening the brood-chambers at all during the honey 

 season, etc., etc., and more honey with no 

 swarming. Get into line and "keep up with the 

 procession," or you'll get left. The device will be 

 puton the market within thereachof all; or, if your 

 dealer does not supply them yet, they may be or- 

 dered of me by express or freight at the following 

 prices, complete: 75 cts. each; $5.00 per 10; $40.00 per 

 100. By mail, 35 cts. extra. As one devnce works 

 two hives, at ten rates the cost is only 25 els. per 

 hive. Be sure to send for circular, as this plan is 

 almost too good to believe its being true.

 eight or nine 3 and 4 

 frame Stanley extract-

 make, we offer these 

 machines as long as they 

 last, at one-third off old 

 prices. We will sell the 

 two-frame machines as 

 they are for $8.00; the 4- 

 frame for $13.00. They 

 are crated ready for

The Coming Fence 



Is the title of another Hustler " poem." Here is one 



verse : 



"Other fences there will be, 



But no one can fail to see 

 That 'gainst this they stand no show to win the day. 



Tliey lack the essential thing, 

 The self-regulating spring 



Which defeats expansion and contraction in a 

 scientific way."

 and are all right in every respect. The express 

 charges were very reasonable, being only $1.45.

 ed safe and well last Saturday, a week ahead of 

 time. Only three of the workers succumbed cross-
