WINTER PROBLEM SOLVED 



BY 



Woodman's Improved Protection Hive 



"THE HIVE WITH AN INNER OVERCOAT" 



100% Perfect Protection by Tests, Winters of 1916-17-18 



The Inner Overcoats did it 



Without any special preparation, bees 

 wintered without loss in these hives. 

 There were no dead bees on the hive bottoms, and it was a joy to see the 

 condition they were in as compared with other styles of hives. The Corru- 

 gated Paper Bottomless Box, Inner Overcoat, is telescoped down in between 

 the outer and inner hive walls when preparing them for winter. It is re- 

 moved in the spring and stored away in the K. D. flat. Not more than two 

 minutes are required to insulate a hive for winter or to remove it in the 

 spring by this method. It is the simplest and most efficient method and 

 does away with a great amount of labor. You have no packing cases or 

 packing material, such as shavings, sawdust, chaff or leaves to house and 

 bother with. Try out a quantity of these hives the coming winter, as hun- 

 dreds of others are doing. Bees are valuable these war times and you can- 

 not afford to lose them. Send for a special circular showing ten large illus- 

 trations.
