Lewis Co., VVatertown, Wis. Dear Sir:—In referring to comparative tests of bee feeders in my opinion there is no better feeder for stimulative feeding or for the queen breeder than Thale's Regulative Vacuum Bee Feeder. It is better than the Boardman in that the bees can always take the syrup, even coldest weather. They took in feed here with the temperature at 22 degrees at night. There is no comparison betAveen the Thale and Boai dman or division board feeder, owing to the ease with which one may control the flow. It is better than the Alexander for the same reason, and that it doesn't make a nuisance fastened to the hive. The Miller Feeder will always be the best fall feed- er for handling large lots of s\-- rup, I believe, but the Thale may be ted so as to empty in 12 hours, I ha^'e found, and that threatens to outgrow the Miller owing to the ease of operation and lack of bothersome equip- ment. The value of stimulative feed- ing Is already known and with- in 24 hours after feeding with the Thale I had eggs in eveiT cell that the bees could cover here with the temperature below freezing. This with pollen from the maples. Altogether I recom- mend the Thale feeder as being the for used best feeder I have ever stimulative feeding. KR
