 without rims. $12.00 f. o. b Grand Rapids. Midi. 

 Delivered to any station In the U. S. A. east of 

 the Mississippi and north of the Ohio Rivers 

 with outside rims, $15.00. 



Mr. Jay Cowing, of Jenison, Mich., has 235 

 of these hives in use. and 40 in single- wall hives; 

 his igi6 increase. He has just purchased an 

 other lot of Protection Hives, and says the 

 approximate extra cost of $1 00 per hive over 

 single-wall hives is the best kind of an invest- 

 ment for him. He is a beekeeper of more than 

 15 years' experience, and his igi6 crop was 580 

 cases of 32 sections, each fancy comb honey. 

 His winter and spring losses of bees from one 

 cause and another has never exceeded 10 per- 

 cent, even in the most severe winters, like 1008- 

 00 and I'jii 12 Mr Cowinti bought some of the 

 lirst Protection Hives offered on the market, 

 and they have proven so satisfactory with him 

 that he is still buying them. 



They are double wall with air spacea or 

 packing as you may prefer. The outer wall 

 is made of .'s material and will last a life time.

SECTION FIXER 



A combined section press and founda- 

 tion fastener of pressed steel construction. 

 It folds the section and puts in top and 

 bottom starters all at one handling, thus 

 saving a great amount of labor. With the 

 lop and bottom starters the comb is firmly 

 attached to all four sides, a requirement 

 to grade fancy. Increase the value of 

 your crop by this method. 



H. W, Schultz, of Middleton, Mich., in 

 writing us says : "Your Section Fixer is 

 the best yet ; can put up 150 sections per 

 hour with top and bottom starters." 

 Price with lamp $2.75. Shipping weight 

 5 lbs. Postage extra. Send for special 

 circular, fully describing this machine.

TIN HONEY PACKAGES 



A local wholesale house secured a carload of tin plate in September that was prom- 

 ised for April. Conditions are now even worse. When it is necessary to order tin plate a 

 year or more in advance of the time it is wanted for use, advances in prices must be ex- 

 pected. The highest bidder will get the stock. 



Freight at this time is very slow and uncertain. Prices are liable to advance. It would 

 be a wise thing to secure your packages for the 1017 crop. Our three-year contract is giving 

 us some advantage over general market quotations. Send us a list of your requirements. 

 We can supply the following 



60-pound cans, one and two in a ease
