DON'T BE CONFUSED 



H Id buying a larger hive than the ten-frame Langstroth hive. Quinby invented an 

 eight-frame hive with frames about 11% inches deep. It was long ago found inade- 

 quate in size and was made into a ten-frame hive, a size we have offered for some years.

 also found it a beekeeping necessity to change this hive further, and evolved the IV2- 

 inch spacing from center to center of the frames. This is the real principle to be 

 considered in the
