GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE 



191 



Mich., to supply them with boxes for their health 

 foods, and have already shipped them several car- 

 loads. They require a car or more a month. This 

 contract required the purchase of a box-printing 

 press, which we have added to our equipment, and 

 will hereafter use on much of our bee-hive work. 

 We are prepared to print up shippins-cases with the 

 name and address of the user, if taken in sufficient 

 quantities. This would make a permanent adver- 

 tisement, of lasting benefit. Our shipping'-cases are 

 already so popular that we sent 3000 in one shipment 

 to New Ne.vico, and are sending over -000 in a oar to 

 California. 



DANZENBAKER HIVES AND SECTIONS. 



As there is considerable interest manifest in Dan- 

 zenbaker's 10-33 comb-honey hive, described in Jan. 

 loth Gl,e.\nings; and as Mr. Danzenbaker has ar- 

 ranged with us as exclusive manufacturers of his 

 hives and sections, and he being situated so far out 

 of the way, we have arranged to receive and execute 

 orders from all who wish to try this hive. We do not 

 advise anj- one to invest in large numbei'S this sea- 

 son till you have given a few a trial. After having 

 tried them, if ihe claims for it are sustained we will 

 no doubt catalog the hive next season. 



There are those who desire to try the open-corner 

 sections, 3'« x 6 x 7 to foot or 1 ;», and use them on 

 the regular hives. We are arranging to accommo- 

 date these, and will illustrate in next issue an 

 arrangement to use these sections in the regular 8- 

 frame Dove, .super. It is a section-holder with >^- 

 inch bottom, iVinch ends, to go crosswise tlie super, 

 and hold 3 sections; 10 of these, with follower and 

 wedge, fill a super; and to provide for the extra 

 ■depth of the section a ^^iiich rim may be placed on 

 top or bottom of super, if you preserve a laee-space 

 above the sections, or a 'i inch rim if you wish the 

 sections to come e\'en w iih the top of super. Where 

 parafflne paper is used to cover over sections, and 

 they are used unly one tier hifih, we think tlie V^-in. 

 rim preferable. Tin snips will have to he nailed 

 on the lower inside edge of side of super, instead of 

 end. as at present, to support the section-liolders. 

 The open-corner sections, both i}4x-l:\i and 3%x5, 

 are quoted in our March 1st catalog, which has been 

 mailed to all Gleanings readers. These rims, tins, 

 and section-holder.s we offer at following prices: 



20-inch hat tins, Ic each ; 60c per 100. 



Rims, X or % inch deep, 3c each; 2')C for 10. 



Section-holders, 15c for 10; $1.20 pei 100.

YELLOWZONES. 



Fellow Bee-keepers. — Just for a moment stop 

 thinking of bees, and give a thought to a matter of 

 good health. Yellowzones are not a new sort of 

 bees, but are yellow tablets, a remedy that will cure 

 the common and serious complaints of yourself and 

 family— the most generally useful and "satisfactory 

 medicine that it has been my fortune to use in a 

 practice of 11 years. I have often, even recently, 

 after using it several years, been astonished at its 

 marvelous power to heal. Families who have used 

 it call for it repeatedly, until 1 find that, instead of 

 prescribing for them as formerly, I am simply sell- 

 intr them Yellowzones. 



Having been formerly a bee-keeper myself, and a 

 subscriber to Gle.\nings since it was first issued by 

 "Novice "as a quarterly, 23 years ago, I have de- 

 termined to offer this remedy lo the Gleanings 

 family, feeling assured that you will be as pleased 

 with it as I have been, in all fecers, headaches, colds, 

 grip, rheumatism, and neuralgia; or, more compre- 

 hensively, for pain, fever, and nervousness in an}/ 

 disea.se— in very fact, a general-utility remedy for 

 the every-day ills of humanity, and the most satis- 

 facfory remedy you ever used; and of especial val- 

 ue just now while la grippe is prevalent. 



It is not a cheap remedy, but it cures, a-ud cures 

 rapidly. It is pleasant to take, and every dose 

 counts. Moreover, we guarantee to refund the 

 price to any one not entirely satisfied. 



We will mail them in bo.\es of 18 at 25 cts.; 6 boxes for $1.00 

 mot less than 6 at dollar rates), or if you scarcely have con- 

 flrlence in them, send 5 cts. for sampleof si.x. We recommend 

 the dollar purchase as most satisfactoiy. Let us show how 

 well we can please yo>i. 



I take real pleasure in referring to Ernest R. Root 

 as to my personal integrity.
