It Pays to Have Extra Hive-Bodies 
What is said about the Root Hive applies, of course, to 
Root Hive-Bodies. The standard dovetailed Hive is of Langs- 
troth dimensions, 10-frame size, and measures 16)4 x 20 inches 
and is 9^- inches deep. The Hive-Body may be used either as 
a brood-chamber, i. e., the lower story of the Hive, or as a full- 
depth upper story or super for extracted honey, thus forming 
a two-story Hive. Nails and tin rabbets included with bodies. 
No division-board.
