By the use of my 

 Improved Spacer, 

 an ordinary Hanging 

 Frame Hive is ci>n- 

 verted into a Rever- 

 sible, or Movable 

 Hive. A Hive is 

 10 quickly and correctly 

 spaced, and the 

 frames are held in 

 their proper position 

 and will not be lift- 

 ed when removing 

 the cover if they are 

 fastened to it by brace-combs. A contracted hive is 

 made movable or invertible. In adopting this, it re- 

 quires no change in a hanging-frame hive. Price of 

 Brood-t'hamber and 8 Frames. $i..'in. one Hive and 

 one doz. extra Spacers. $4.uu. In ordering, state what 

 frames you use and give the width of your hive, 

 inside. J. B. WILCOX, Manistee, Mich.
