 airspace — the outside cover is made from full 74, inch white pine. It 

 cannot leak, it cannot warp, it retains the heat of the colony so neces- 

 sary in early spring, and it is impenetrable to heat in the hottest climate.

 Friend Putnam: — 



Yours saying that you would send the sections in a few days is here. 

 Thank you. 



Ever since nailing up those hives, I have felt like writing and thanking you for the 

 excellent material and workmanship. The lumber is practically clear lumber, and the 

 workmanship simply perfect — everything smooth Mud accurate. If every shipment that 

 you send out is like this, you will eventually have more business than you can look 

 after. Yours Truly,
