HAMILTON, ILL, FEBRUARY, 1914 Vol. LIV.—No. 2. Foul Brood auci 3Ioths Combined On our front cover we give the pho- tograph of two brood-combs taken by Inspector Frank C. Pellett, on one of his tours this summer. Aside from the fact that the combs are examples of the worst possible type of American foul brood, they a re also being devoured by the moths.
