SCIENCE IN HIVE-MAKING ! 



The Lewis Hive goes together like a watch. It can't help it. 



All parts of Lewis Bee-hives fit accurately. 

 It is made that way. 



Lewis hives are right when you put them together, because they are right when they leave the factory. 

 This is because Lewis Hives are scientifically made. Lewis workmen have this all-important point in 

 view — accuracy. Many of them have spent most of their lives making Bee-hives. 



Don't make the mistake of thinking "a bee-hive is a bee-hive, and that is all there is to it." There is a 

 vast difference. You will find Lewis Hives are in a class by themselves. They are as near perfect as man 

 can make them. 



If you place your bees in poorly-made hives they will try to correct tlie mistakes made in the making of 

 tlie hive by filling up the cracks and crevices with comb, and the rough surfaces will bring about propo- 

 lizing. Men can make hives better than bees — don't leave it to the bees. Be sure to get Lewis Hives. 

 They are made right to begin with.
