PRODUCING EXTRACTED HONEY 



result in a somewhat darker honey, owing to 

 the darker color of the brood combs; but in

One thing, however, is an absolute necessity, 

 and should not be overlooked, and that is to

 are properly wired in, full directions for doing 

 which come with the hives from the manu- 

 facturers, as this prevents the combs from 

 becoming broken as they are rapidly whirled 

 around in the extractors, a breakage that is 

 almost sure to occur in the case of new combs.
