D A View of Mr. Chate's Apiary. 



Friend HiJton: -I started this spring with 16 colonies; 

 bought 30 three-frame nuclei of you; have Increased to 

 85 strong colonies with ample stores for winter with- 

 out feeding. Have taken 1090 lbs. fine extracted honey 

 and a little comb (and no drawn combs to begin with) 

 all from full sheets of foundation. My best colony 

 gave 329 lbs. ; a three-frame nucleus, received from you 

 May 28, gave me 210 lbs. extracted honey. But for the 

 drouth and flres I should have had much more.
