HONET EXTRACTORS. 



rpHE $8 and SilO 



J. sizes are made to 

 suit those who desire 

 a cheap but practical 

 machine. The cans 

 are smaller, the sides 

 of the baskets are sta- 

 tionary. and they have 

 no covers, strainers, or 

 metal standards 



Being made entirely 

 of metal,they are very 

 light and durable, and 

 have lugs for firmly 

 fastening to the floor. 



Those who want the 

 BEST honey extractor 

 are referred to those 

 who are now using the 

 Excelsior.

 can; the latter 4 have metal standards 

 for the basket to revoIVe upon, leaving 

 room underneath the basket for 50 or 

 80 pounds of honey. 



EXCEI^SIOR 'Wa.x. Extractor. 



WE make two sizes, the smaller one 

 having a larger capacity than the 

 Swiss Wax Extractor. Prices, small 

 size, 104: ; large size, )#5.00. Some of 

 the advantages of this Extractor are : 



1. It is more easily operated, there 

 being no necessity for removing the 

 top to re-tlll with water. 



2. it melts the wax quicker, because 

 it Is brought into a more direct con- 

 tact with the steam. 



3. It is more economical, because 

 the steam has access to the center, 

 thereby extructlng all the wax from 

 the refuse matter. 



4. The filler fur water acts also as an 

 indicator, showing the amount of 

 water in the boiler ; when the steam 

 escapes through the filler, more water 

 is required. Keep a kettle of hot water 

 ready to re-flU when required.
