The FoiindaJion Combs you sent me were rcc'd 

 all right. I .it onre experimented with them. E\- 

 tj-acteil honey Irom one iii three days after i)larins it 

 in the hives. They arc Just the tiling so long needed 

 and can be used lor almost every pnrpose and way 

 ab-QUt the hJve.

Tlie Combs are perfectly satisfactoiy. Tliis lot I 

 put into 19 Langstroth frames and put in upper and 

 lower stories both, between full combs in varxons 

 hives. Some combs were wet with sweetened water, 

 some were not, it made no diirerence. Some of them 



and partly

Those sperfmens of Comib Foundations were put 

 as I informed vqu they would be, into tlie hands of otli- 

 ers for cxi)eriment. as X have no beea. Mr. Cary who- 

 is aif ex];ert showed me combs verj beautffullj" lin- 

 ished from a Foundation. 



YouTs very truly, L. L. KvNGSTUorir.. 



Dear Sfit: »SY. Johnnulle, May ISOi, '15. 



In a hive that was about ready to need combs I 

 put a large frame containing half a dozen small ones, 

 small ones .'>x(i Sfjuare, in half of them I put i>leces of 

 Fonndations, in the other half i put a guide of wax 

 aci'oss the top one-fourth inch in width. Bcea have 

 oommonced on both alike; cells in Foundations half 

 an inch deep ; some honey biit no eggs yet. A great 

 many will w.int a small quantity at tirst. If I could 

 sec yon I think I could make some valuable sugges- 

 tions. Yonrs, M. QuiNBi. 



Bk.Iik Sik: Clirisdansburcr, Va,- 



I am much pleased with the get up of tliose Foun- 

 dations, and know from experiemce that they will an- 

 swer a good puritose. Kesp'y, J.K, Gakunkis. 



Deak Sik:— ^Ey experience with j-oi^r Foimdationw 

 this year is but a repetition of last years'. I can only 

 say with IMrs. Tupper, 'Y/fcy are as pxnrfeet am cim fee."" 

 I have noted the ob.jections of Mr. Quinby, and a» 

 proof i>ositivc of his ciTor send you a complete comb, 

 Islled and sealcil.

Mr. Langstroth sent me some days ago part of 

 !>ample of your J'oundatior/s which I placed in a colony 

 and fed them, (as the bees are getting no honey) I 

 would say tliat we were well pleased with the way the 

 bees lengthened ont the cells. Wm. \V. Cakt, Sr. 



Deak Sik: Monroe, N. Y., Sepf.Wth, ",?>, 



Enclosed yon will find P. O. order for S.")., in returu 

 please send me by express live pounds of your artiliciiiS 

 (.:omb Foundations. Tlie onlv objection I have seer-j 

 made to these Foundation.s is that the centers will be 

 "thick and tough ;" this to me is a recrommendation, 

 and I think will enable me to ship honey in the comb 

 with more safety, the combs l^ing less brittle. 



KespectfuUv, Thomas Siiaukon, 



Deak Sik: Borodino, N. Y.. Sept. IStJi, "b. 



Your card m at hand. Would say that owing to 

 the delay caused by the money not leaving this ofli'".e 

 I did not receive tlie Foundations until our Iioney liar- 

 vest was all over. I lilled six l>oxes with them and in 

 seven davs had them filled ;ind capped over.
