fact, that
THE VERMONT
C&|SIAI EAIMGGs
Flanders Patent Beehive,
is winning golden opinions from practic bee
cultivators where il has beer introduced. 1t is
being used in different States and it has met
She universal appreciation of Apiarians and
hec mon generally. 1t possesses principles
which are entirely new, and by their applica.
ton in the management of bees IL is believed
that those difficulties that have rendered the
bee business precarious will be nearly OBJ
waited. Their use SO far warrants this be-
lief.
The advantages this hive possesses over al
other hives now in use arc;
tirSt A device to prevent ROLLING and ex
cessive strdrming when desired, which can
be easily attached to any box-hivc now in use.
Second This device prevents the escape
OF bees in winter without the owners conGn
ing them, as lie is obliged TO do in Other
hives.
Third; An improved plan to prevent the
ravages of the moth.
Fourth: An ingenious mode of vrniia
tion preventing excessive coM ~ hcot
And Fifth the apiarian can easily rid the
hive of the superabundance OF droncs. BY
so doing, he saves from fifteen to thirty lbs.
would be consumed by them in the season.
