 our packing-case. It pro- 

 tects goods while in the 

 hands of the railroad 

 company so that you will

 just as good "condition as 

 when thev left factory. 



Our Wisconsin Hive. 



We consider th s one of the 

 best hives in the market. It is 

 similar in construction to the 

 Improved Langstroth Simplic- 

 ily shown in the previous issue, 

 but includes some of the new- 

 style devices which are prefer- 

 red by some. It has the thick 

 reversible bottom, and the su- 

 pers are arranged so that the 

 bottom can be wedged up from 

 the end as well as the side. 

 The body contains Hoffman f 

 frames, metal rabbets, and di- 

 vivion-boards. See page 5 of our 

 new catalog. We manufacture 

 four other styles of hives. If 

 you have not received our ne^v 

 catalog, send for one. It's free.
