Winter Problem Solved 



Hive with an Inner Overcoat 



The 18 colonies of bees shown above on the roof of one of our § 



buildings here in Grand Rapids, wintered 100 per cent perfect, or | 



without loss, during the winter of 1918-19. They were brought in by | 



truck over forty miles, about November 1. An attempt was made to I 



feed them, as they were short of stores, but without success, as it f 



was too late and cold. They were transferred from single-wall | 



hives to the Protection Hives. They were left here all winter and g 



the winds swept them from all directions. No special preparation I 



was made as to young queens, young bees, feeding, etc. Every g 



swarm came out a prime swarm, with the exception of one that was § 



queenless and dwindled out in May. = 



It will pay you to try out a sample shipment of these hives this 1 



winter. Send for special circular and catalog. Q
