extracting house. If there is an extracting room near at hand 
they are wheeled in, in a cart or wheelbarrow (Fig. 98), or if 
they must be taken some distance to the central plant, they are 
set In a wagon or automobile in which they are hauled home.

Fie. 98.—Wheelbarrow load of extracting supers. 
the honey is to be taken off, which is often inconvenient, espe- 
cially at outyards. 
Extracting at Once.—The honey can never be extracted as 
easily as when first taken from the hives in warm weather. It 
sometimes becomes necessary to leave a part of the work to be 
done after the close of the season. If the weather is cool, a warm 
room will be necessary and even then honey that has stood in the 
honey house for several weeks will be thrown out with more or 
less difficulty. With a power-driven extractor it is possible to get 
the combs much cleaner than with the hand machine.
