16 GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. Mar. 1 



1. The Root Dovetailed Hive- 



Material and workmanship of the very best, yet reasonable in price. 



Gentlemen: — I have one of your new hives set up and painted, to put the nucleus in, and am very well pleased 

 with it. Your hives are 50 per cent better than others I have bought at the same price. 



Yours truly, A. J. Fischer. 



I have just received my goods, order No. 10739. I am more than pleased with the goods. I had intended 

 to make my hives, but when I received the sample hive and saw the No. 1 pine lumber it was made of, and 

 considering the workmanship, I am satisfied that I can buy cheaper than I can make them — enough cheaper to 

 save the price of the lumber. Now my order for the bees: will there be a super with the hive that you send ? 

 If not, I wish you to send me one. I would like the bottom-board and cover. 



I have a few neighbors who keep bees. They are bees by name only, some black and some mongrels. 

 I don't know of any good ones around here, so I expect with my choice Italians and up-to-date hives I will 

 take the sweepstakes and rob all the flowers. Yours, O. C. Mills. 



2. The Danz. Hive- 



The comb-honey hive. 



I will take the pleasure of informing you that, since 1 have used your Danzenbaker hive, out of 20 colonies 

 I have sold this last season $104.00 worth of honey at 15 cents per section. Yours truly, Milton Groman. 



3. The Root Chaff Hive- 



or all-the-year-around-out-door hive; costs more and is worth more. 



Gentlemen: — I am using your Jumbo metal-spaced frames in your double-wall chaff hive. They are dan- 

 dies. They are a perfect home for my little pets in all kinds of weather. They are strong in bees, and making 

 nice section honey. Resp., J. W. Lewis. 



4. All other Supplies 



used or needed in the apiary, and all ** Root Quality." 



Dear Sirs: — I wish to thank you for the way you handled my order of recent date, for the prompt shipping 

 and the quality of the goods. The sections I find equal and far superior to Al grade sold by other firms or deal- 

 ers. You stated in your catalog that the B2 grade of sections was just as good as Al, except in color of wood 

 and slight saw-marks, but I find them to be better than what you say in color, and I noticed only a few sections 

 with saw-marks on, and they were on the inside and could not be seen after filled with honey. 



Most respectfully, A. O. Beeghly. 



Batavia, Mich., Feb. 13, 1909.
