HONEY EXTRACTORS 



In answer to frequent inquiries 

 for Extractors carrying 3 and 4 

 I angstroth frames, we have 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, leaving room un- 

 derneath the basket for 75 or 80 

 lb**, of honey. It will be complete, 

 with covers, and in every way 

 identical, except in size, with the 

 f 16.(H> Extractor, 13x20, which is 

 intended for any size of frame. 



Excepting 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 $8.00 and 

 110.0*.) Extractors have no covers.

The engraving gives a good idea of the hive. 

 The brood-ehamber is in two sections; also the 

 surplus arrangement, which may be interchanged 

 or inverted at will. Tbe 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 th'e 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.

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

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

 two surplus arrangements, each containing 2h one- 

 pound sections, one with wide frames and separa- 

 tors, and the other without separators. Tbis latter 

 chamber can ba interchanged with the other 

 stories, but cannot be reversed. It is nailed and 

 PAINTED, and ready foi immediate use. Price, 

 ^.ot.», complete. 



It Is absolutely eaaentlal to order one 

 nailed hive as a pattern for putting those 

 In the flat tosether correctly. 



HIVES READY TO NAIL— In fllUngorders for 

 these hives, in the flat, we make 6 different com- 

 binations, so that our customers may make a 

 selection from the sample nailed hive, without 

 waiting for us to quote prices, and the different 

 kinds will be known by the following numbers : 



Xo. 1 consists of the stand, bottom-board, 

 cover, two B-inch brood-chambers, 16 frames, and 

 the slatted honey-board. Price, JBl.SS each. 



Ko. 3 is the same as No. 1 , with the addition of 

 one surplus story containing 28 sections without 

 separators— interchangeable, but not reversible.—

 ries as therein described. Price. !H>3.50 each. 



Ko. 4 is the same as No. l, with the addition of 

 one surplus story containing 28 sections in wide 

 frames with separators, which can be reversed.

 cnambers. Price, I1$>2.30 each.

 tlons from the above prices : Stand, 14 cents ; 

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