Covering over it, bees will cluster against calm in front apartment, lodge in that, pass
From comb to comb, etc. (11th) style of hive South of Ohio and Potomac rivers
The honey emptier and small frames in large one forgetting surplus honey
Enable me greatly to simplify hive for climates of moderate winter,
And perhaps if deep frames are used for all climates, and certainly if hives
In the very cold climates are wintered indoors. Let front and rear of
hive to be say 1 1/2 inches higher than sides. Now as in figure one in my book, nail
On strips to get the rabbets. Let these strips be beveled to get more width,
As in present second story hives. Let hardwood hive supporters be let in 1/8 inch and 1/2 inch deep 
Fixed up 1/2 inch. Ample room now for fingers, splendid feeder, the ledge 
May be nailed against the beveled strips making all very strong with bottom
Board nailed on, 2. Roof made Allie grey etc style. If box is on top wintered an
Addition used. Movable bottom board for cleaning out easily get as above,
Not needed except in cold climates. In rear are frames with small
Ones for surplus, or empty. If cover for frames used inside cover is 
 [illegible] Made in two parts, so that more easily merged. Impossible to
Improve on this for simplicity and [illegible]. Boxes may also be used below
Front and rear frames being kept centrally three tiers of boxes for in a tier
On front, three in rear. Dimension of hive, from front to rear, 28 inches 
Side to side, 12 inches, depth 15 inches.
