408 GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. Apr. 1 



Stop and Consider! 



How much time have you wasted in cleaning wooden 

 separators, and then not having the color-stains of the 

 propolis scraped off ? 



Wire-cloth separators do not need cleaning very often. 



Consider Again! 



Why you can not secure as nice comb honey from any old 

 super filled with color-stained wood separators as with an 

 entirely new super with new separators. Have you ever 

 noticed it ? Wire-cloth separators are not colored with 

 propolis, and consequently the stains are not transferred 

 to the nice white capping of the comb. If these separators 

 need cleaning, by boiling them in water they come out as 

 good as new. For prices, see catalog sent out from
