In answer to frequent Inquiries 

 for Extractors carrying 3 and 4 

 Langstroth frames, we bave con- 

 cluded to adopt these two new 

 sizes. The 3 frame basket is in a 

 can of the same size and style as 

 the 2 frame. The 4 frame basket 

 is in the larger can, with the cone 

 or metal standard for the basket 

 to revolve upon, leavinK room un- 

 derneath the basket for 75 or 80 

 lbs. of honey. It wilt be complete, 

 with covers, and in every way 

 identical, except in size, with the 

 f le.'Hi Extractor, I3x20, which la 

 intended for any size of frame. 



Bxceptintr with the $8.00 Ex- 

 tractors, all the different styles 

 have strainers over the canal lead- 

 ing to the honey gate, and mova- 

 ble sides in the Comb Baskets. The 98.00 and 

 $10.00 Extractors have no covers.

The NEW Heddon Hive, i 



We have made arrangements with the 

 inventor by which we shall make and sell tha 

 Heddon Reversible Hive, both at wholesale 

 and retail : nailed and also in the flat. 



The engraving glvea a good idea of the hive. 

 The brood-chamber is in two sections; also the 

 surplus arrangement, which may be interchanged 

 or inverted at will. The cover, bottom-board, and 

 top and bottom of each sectional case has one-half 

 of a regular bee-space, bo that the surplus cases 

 with the sections, may be placed between the two 

 brood-chambers.or the latter may be transposed 

 or inverted— in fact, all parts of this hive are 

 perfectly interchangeable. The brood-frames will 

 ALL be bored for wires. 



A SAMPLE niVE Includes the bottom-hoard 

 and stand ; a slatted honey-board, and cover ; two 

 6-inch brood-chambers, each containing 8 frames ; 

 two surplus arrangements, each containing 28 one* 

 pound sections, one with wide frames and separa- 

 tors, and the other without separators. This latter 

 chamber can ha interchanged with the other 

 stories, but cannot be reversed. It is nailed ANn 

 PAINTED, and ready for immediate use. Price, 

 $4.00, complete. 



It Is absolutely essential to order one 

 nailed hive as a pattern rorputtlov those

 binations, so that our customers may make a

 cover, two 6-inch brood-chambers. 16 frames, and 

 tbe slatted honey-board. Price. 3B1. 55 each. 



'No. 8 is the same as No. i, with the addition of 

 one surplus story containing 28 sections without 

 separators— interchangeable, but not reversible.- 

 Price, S3.00 each. 



No. S is the same as No. 2, with two surplus sto- 

 ries as therein described. Price, 4^8. 50 each. 



"So. 4 is the same as No. 1, with the addition of 

 one surplus story containing 28 sections In wide 

 frames with separators, which can be reversed, 

 inverted, and interchanged, tbe same ss the brood- 

 cnambers. Price, 9If;3.30 each.

 arrangements as therein described. Price, S3.00,

 sample nailed hive. Price, 9S.75 each. 



Those desiring the hives ivithout the stand.honey- 

 board or sections, may make the following deduc- 

 tions from the above prices : Stand, 14 cents ; 

 honey-board, 8 cents ; and the 28 or 56 sections, as
