The styles are not in such great variety as in hives, but in the course of a few years there will be as much confu- sion in that line as there is in the countless styles of differ- ent hives. We shall take the space here to describe but two kinds of section holders. Tlie one here illustrated was devised by Frank A. Eaton of Bluffton, Ohio. The accompanying cut, fig. 5, represents the case ; it has the combined features of the single-tier broad-frames and the open case, having a slatted bottom to correspond with the bot- tom of the sections which protects the latter and keeps them clean from brace-combs and coming off the hive as clean as when first put on. It can be used in connection with a wood- and-zinc honey-board if desired, as other cases are, or it can be used to good advantage without, as the slatted bottom keeps the sections clean. It can be made with the bee-space.
