NEW INVENTION. 



Patented Oct. 17, 1882. 



Bees forced to leave their surplus honey 

 before removing it from the hive. Saves 

 valuable time and labor; prevents robbing-, 

 and the liability of being- stung'. The Bees 

 are first cut off from the brood hive, by 

 closing the opening-s in a slat honey board; 

 the conductor is then placed in position, 

 which connects bees in surplus honey with 

 brood hive. They soon find that they are im- 

 prisoned, and being- anxious to escape, pass 

 out throug:h the Conductor into the brood 

 hive. It also prevents their return. 

 Conductor and Lang-stroth hive com- 

 plete .?t; 00 



Conductor and Hon€*y Board, any size, 

 and Sections to fill, which shows all 



the improvements 1 50
