NO^V IN rOSSESSION OF C. O. rKUUINf:. 



March 'I'Mh. — We have 1450 subscribers, and have lost 

 15 colonics of bees out of the 'M. Such is "Novice." 



Mr. ROOT:— Sir, the Comb Foundation came to hand, 

 and sravc me the irreatest satisfnction. They measured 

 nearly six square feet to one jKnuid, and I find it easy 

 work to set strips o\ by 12 inches into the frames for the 

 American hives. March 23d '70. Covrau Dippki,.
