The following unsolicited testimonial is 

 only one of hundreds received commending 

 this Extractor : 



A. H. Newman, Esq.— Dear Sir : The 

 Excelsior Honey Extractor, with three-sided 

 comb basket, received to-day and tested. I 

 find it EXCELLENT. I can take from my 

 hives, extract, and return frames at the 

 rate of one hundbkd pounds pek houe. 

 Do not know how long I could keep up at 

 that rate. If this isn't work, it resembles 

 it very mucli. J. M. Shuck. 



Des Moines, Iowa, July 30, 1881. 



Several improvements have 4)een made over those of previous 

 years, and points of excellence will be continually added to them 

 as fast as discovered or suggested— keeping them fully up to the 

 present advancing era of bee-keeping, and making the Excelsior an 

 extractor only to be equaled by close imitation, and never to be 

 excelled. 



The Excelsior is made entirely of metal, and is consequently very 

 light, strong and durable, with lugs at the bottom for firmly attach- 

 ing to the floor if desired. 



The Comb Basket having vertical sides, insures the extracting 



Eower alike for top and bottom of frames. The sides of the basket 

 eing movable and interchangeable, greatly facilitate the operation 

 of dasting before and thoroughly cleaning after use, if desired. 



The basket can betafefln from or replaised in the can in amomentr 

 there being no rusty screws to talte out or niits to remove. 



At the bottom of the can, and below the basket, is a cone or metal 

 standard, in the top of which revolves the bottom pivot of the bas- 

 ket, thereby giving room for sixty or seventy pounds of honey with- 

 out touching the basket or pivot below.
