 Hive. 



All arguments lead to a 

 matter of protection, look 

 where you may. Numer- 

 ous editorials in Gleanings 

 have called attention to the 

 imporance of protection. 

 Dead air-space or packing, 

 as you prefer. 



Protection Hives are 

 equipped with Hoffman 

 Frames, and take standard 

 Dovetail Supers and Bodies 

 — 8 or 10 frame. The outer 

 wall is constructed of a 

 material which insures du- 

 rability. The best, yet the 

 lowest-price double-walled 

 hive on the market.
