Honey Extractors 



Our extractors are carefully made from selected materials, and with ordinary usage 

 will last for years. All power machines are fully equipped ready for running. We make 

 extractors in all sizes from two to eight frame, and the power machines in four, six, and 

 eight frame size, or larger, if ordered special. The prices range from $9.50 for a small 

 hand-run machine to $52 for an eight-frame power-equipped machine. A one-horse-power 

 air-cooled engine is $60, and a 1% horse-power water-cooled, $65. 



These machines are run by a one-horse-power gasoline-engine which may be put to so 

 many other good uses about the place you will wonder how you ever got along without it. 



A word about the power extractor I purchased 

 from you through H. L. Joues, of Goodna. I found 

 it to work very satisfactorily, and it will do all it is 

 claimed to do, and more. I use the gasoline-engine 

 for several purposes besides driving the eight-frame 

 extractor, such as driving the washing-machine for 

 the lady of the house, and corn cracking and grind- 

 ing. I consider it one of the best speculations I 

 made in connection with the apiary. 



Pittsworth, Queensland. F. C. Qoldeb. 



Yours of the 16th, also the brake-band for power- 

 extractor, came to hand. Thanks for sending it so 

 promptly. This is my second season with the power 

 extractor. I would not be without it now, even if I 

 had only fifty colonies. David Running.

Uncapping Knife 



Just 'a word about the new steam uncap- 

 ping knife which seems to go quite natural- 

 ly with the power extractors. No more per- 

 fect device has ever been put into the hands 

 of beekeepers, and one who has any con- 

 siderable amount of uncapping to do should 

 not be another season without this knife. 

 Steam may be generated for this in a half- 

 gallon can over a single-burner oil-stove. 

 We furnish the knife complete with the 

 hose for $5.00, and with boiler for $6.00. 



As regards the steam uncapping-knife, I think it 

 a grand investment, so far ahead of the cold knife 

 that it will pay any ordinary beekeeper to have the 

 outfit. I purchased an outfit one year ago for my 

 home yard, and thought so much of it that I got 

 another this year for my outyard.

Adelaide, Ont., September 28, 1911. 



I received the extractor I ordered of you some 

 time ago. It arrived in good shape. I set it up and 

 extracted 143 quarts of honey, and sold it at 35 

 cts. a quart. The extractor is just fine — does the 

 work completely. F. D. KlNQ. 



Athens, Ohio, Aug. 16, 1912. 



The engine I got of you this spring has done fine. 

 We ran it all fall, and never had any trouble at all.

 can over a single flat-wick oil-stove furnishes the 

 steam necessary.
