Read what J. 1. Parent, of 



('H.^Ki.TON. N. Y., says — "We 

 cut with one of your Combined 

 Machines last winter 50 chaflf 

 hives with 7-inch cap, 100 honey- 

 racks, 500 broad frames, 2,000 

 lioney-boxes, and a great deal of 

 other work. This winter we 

 have doubled the amount of bee- 

 hives, etc., to make, and we ex- 

 pect to do it all with this saw. 

 It will do all you say it will."
