Honey Extractor 



since the introduction of these extractors some 

 14 years ago to the bee-keeping worki, we have 

 been experimenting with a view to eliminating 

 weak points, and perfecting the stronger ones. 



All Sizes* We niannfactnre all sizes of 

 extractors from the small 2-frame to the 4 and 6 

 and 8-frame machine-power (power machines 

 made to oriler only). The can part of these ex- 

 tractors is made of galvanized iron covered with 

 blue japanning, and neatly lettered. 



OalvaniZed. The comb-baskets are 

 galvanized wire, well braced; the hinges, hoops, 

 cross arms, and other metal parts, are galvanized 

 after finishing, something you will get iu no 

 other on the market. 



Band-braKe. ah four, six, and eight 

 frame machines are provided with band-brake, 

 which permits of the stopping of the machine 

 instantly, without danger of breakage. These 

 machines have larpe metal handles. Ball bear- 

 ings are used which make them very light run- 

 ning. The honey-gates are large, which does not 

 require the stopping of work to allow the honey 

 to run out.

Victor's Superior 

 Italians 



go by return mail ag^ain. Owing- to several 

 large queen contracts, a contract for a solid 

 carload of bees that went to Colorado, 85 

 three-frame nuclei to same State, numerous 

 smaller orders for bees, and a g^ond queen 

 trade, it has been necessary for me to cut 

 out my ad. for the past three months to keep 

 from being swainpcd with orders. I am 

 glad to notify my patrons that I ain at last 

 able to fill orders promptly with as fine 

 queens as ever headed a colon}', reg^ardless 

 of their source, at the following reasonable 

 prices : 



1 Untested queen, 75c; six, $4.00. 

 1 Select untested queen, 90c ; six, $5.00. 

 1 Tested queen, $1.00 : six, $6.00. 

 1 Select tested queen. Si. 50; six, $8.50. 

 Breeders, $3 00 to $7.00 — these are as 

 good as the best.

L. H. Robiy, Dear Sit : — Enclosed find one dollar and 

 twenty cents i$l 20) for which you will please send me 

 two (2) warranted queens. The queens you sent me 

 last year have proved to be excellent. I introduced one 

 into a three frame nucleus on Aug. 22, 1902, and on Aug. 

 25, 1903, I took 228 lbs. of comb honey, leaving 10 Hoff- 

 man frames in the brood-chamber for the coming 

 winter; that is very good for a nucleus. Be sure to 

 give my street number, .52o Dakota St , for the queens 

 you sent me las' year were carri^-d to another Wm. 

 Zimmerman, and I did not get them until the next 

 dav. Wm Zimmerman.
