BEES ! B££3 ! ! 



L. L. LANGSTROTH3'S:MOVABLE COMB HIVE. 

 (Patented October, 1855.) 



EACH Comb in this hive is made by the bees on a separate, mo- 

 vable frame, and in a few minutes by the use of a little smoke 

 Lhey may all be easily taken out without cutting them or at all en- 

 •aging the bees. Tlie practical bee-keeper will see that a perfect 

 t iontrol over all the combs must make an entire revolution in bee- 

 eepiog; as in this way weak stocks may be quickly strengthened 

 »y helping them to comb, honey, or hatching broods from alionger 

 »nes; ijueenless colonifs may be supplied with the me;ina of rais- 

 ng anotlier queen ; the exact condition of the hive may at aoy 

 ime be ascertained, and the ravages of the beemotn etfectuall^ 

 irevented. New colonies may be formed in less time than is uau 

 lUy required to hive a natural swaim; or the hive may be used ha 

 non-Bwaimer; or managed on the common swarming plan. The 

 ght to use this invention is sold for five dollars, and entitles the 

 lurchaser to use and make for his own use in one location as many 

 as he pleases. For ten dollars a right and a beautiful hive, 

 ;la£s on four sides, will be sent carefully boxed, to any address. 

 r seven dollars a right and a thoroughly made hive with glass 

 the back. This hive is made to stand in the open air without 

 Jie expense of a bee-house. Proper directions for its management, 

 ther with a minute account of the habits of the bee are con- 

 id in the patentee's work on '• The Hive and ttie Honey-Bee," 

 pages octavo,) which will be sent, postage paid, for one dollar 

 iad a quarter. For individual and territorial rights, address
