GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE.

FIG. 1. — MR. ASPINVVALL OPENING ONE OF HIS NON-SWARMISG SKY-SCRAPERS. 



When I visited Mr. Aspinwall I asked him to stand in front of one of the hives in order that our readers might see not only the- 

 hive but the inventor as well. He protested somewhat but finally consented, and here he is. He never uses a bee-veil, and says it 

 is not necessary with his hives, because he does not smash any bees, and, what is more, there is no need of it. He has just removed 

 the telescoping cover, and is now proceeding to pry up his honey-board. — Ed.
