Leading bee-keepers use the PORTER escape, and say that without a trial it is impossible to realize the amount of vexatious, annoying, disagreeable work that it Saves.

At our Northern Michigan aciaries we have three honey extractors As we don't extract until the honey harvest is over, and at only one apiary at a time, we find it an easy matter to move an extractor from one yard to another, as we go with a double team, and we find that we can easily dispense with at least one of the machines— better have the money put into more bees—so, we offer one of them for sale. The machine is a four-frame, 'Langstroth) Root Automatic, reversible. No 25. with a slip-gear. A new machine now costs S25 00, but we will sell this for S22 00, and it has been used only two seasons and is practically anew machine. W. Z. HUTCHINSON, Flint, Mich.

Their good points are fairly set forth in the adver- tisement in this isssue. The price is postpaid, but I will send the Review one year, and one of these smokers, for only $ W. Z.
