by Alfred Neighbor

PHILADELPHIA EXHIBITION OF 1876.

Dated Dec. 12th.

Award of Prize Medal to G. Neighbour and Sons,

For a large and varied collection of economical beehives so arranged that the honey can be taken without the destruction of the bees. Special attention is directed to the Unicomb Hives with Venetian blinds to allow the bees to be exposed to light, whilst the sun's rays are excluded. Also to a Honey Extractor by centrifugal force, which removes the honey from the combs without injuring the latter, which can be returned to the hives.
