THE LARGE HIVE 



has proven to us through fifty years' experience its superiority. In 

 fact we have yet to learn of a single beekeeper, once having used 

 our larger hive ever returning to the smaller one. Its use is con- 

 vincing of its superiority. 



BEST WINTERING, because if properly handled it gives strong 

 colonies in fall, with abundance of stores on few frames, imme- 

 diately above and behind the brood-nest. 



BEST HONEY PRODUCING, because it gives large, strong colo- 

 nies for the honey flow, and abundance of room for brood and 

 honey. Shallow supers do away with queen excluders. 



BEST NON-SWARMING, because there is ample laying room for 

 the most prolific queen, ample storing room for the workers and 

 ample ventilation for all. 



THE MODIFIED DADANT HIVE has embodied in it.all these ad- 

 vantages and lends itself readily to use with Langstroth equipment. 

 Frames are Langstroth length, Quinby-Dadant depth, regular 

 HofTman style spaced, l'/2 inches from center to center. Hives 

 regular dovetailed, metal cover and reversible bottom.
