Hall's Patent

Categories: HIVES.
Bee Keeping: Mysteries Of Bee-keeping Explained

Mr. Hall has added a lower section to his hive, about four inches deep,

with two boards inside, like the roof of a house, to discharge the

worms, &c.; but as these boards would interfere with close inspection,

they are objectionable. Several other variations of inclined

bottom-boards and suspended hives have been contrived, to obtain a

patent, but the objections offered will apply to most of them. I shall

not weary the reader by noticing in detail _every_ hive that has been

patented; I think if I notice the _principles of each kind_, it will

test his patience sufficiently.
