. American bee journal. Bee culture; Bees. PUBLISHED EVERY WEEK AT $ PER 35th Year. CHICAGO, ILL., JUNE 6, 1895. No. 23. Cot)inhuicd /Vrticles> On Important Apiarian Subjects. No. 6.—The Harvesting of Extracted Honey. BT CHA8. DADANT. In running an apiary for extracted honey, there is but little outlay of expense, and that is one reason why it may be produced much cheaper than comb honey. Yet, to succeed be inverted without raising them out, the work proceeds faster. We use a 4-frame extractor, the basket of which is 13 inches wide, so that two half-frames 6 inches deep can be placed side by side on each face of the basket. This gives us room for 8 half-depth frames. The capping-can is also, to us, an indispensable imple- ment. Nothing can well take its place, for the cappings, the pieces of broken combs, must be placed at once where the honey may readily drain out of them, and nothing answers the purpose but the capping-can. This is one of the very few original useful articles to which we lay claim as inventors— 710 patent, however. The capping-can is composed of two cans fitting into each other, the upper one having a wire-cloth.
