l. swindled out of much money and time by purchas-
ing Patent Bee Hives. The time has arrived when,
owing TO the labors and experiments OF Mr.. Lang
strot6, a complete revolution will Immediately take
place in the management OF our Aplarles. What be-
fore was an uncertainty, Is now certalnty-when

attending the Bee keeper are absolutely entirely and
forever removed. Any person desiring to witness the
operations of this Hive can be grated by calling at
my residence where have number in operation
few of the advantages this Hive enjoys OVER all
others will be mentioned.
The Apiarian has the entire control over all the
combs-any or all of the combs can be taken out at
pleasure without injury to the combs or engaging the
bees the least.
This advantage alone is of more importance than
all the combined avanages OF all the oher H1ces IN
existence. Every Aplarian knows when this is &C
complished all other difficulties at once vanish.
Il permits all necessary operations to be performed
without injuring or killing single Bee,
1t gives the power of inspecting all the operations
of the Bee and at all times ascertaning their precise
situation.
1t is adapted to swsrms of all sizes, being made
large or smallera at pleasure in moment. The combs
can be moved without any arring combs can be CIV
en- to the Bees to fill again. The whole or part of
comb can be removed ut any time.
1t furnishes the greatest possible security against
the ravages of Bee moth.
1t offers facilities for feeding Bees in either cold
warm weather.
1t admits the safe transportation of Bees any dis
lance.
1t allows the honey to be taken at any time, in the
most convenient beautiful and saleable forms.

1t enables the Apiarian to multiply his Stock at
pleasure.
Queenless Stocks can be supplied with Queens with
out any difficulty

die TOOLS being very simple in its construction

Importance with those enumerated, for full particu-
lars of which would recommend all persons interest
ed the culture of the Bee to read Langsroth on the

ducts will rejoice that the time has arrived when the
management of the Bee has become so entirely sim
plied that all the former difficulties and perplexties
are at once done away with.

constant experiment of the inventor and is believed
by the subscriber to be perfect for the purpo
poses intended as any invention ever made
