From Mr. Pettitt's catalogue—a very sensible one—I take the following models and prices of bell-glasses for supers.
Bell-shaped Glasses, for working on the top of any of the hives. Price, 10 in. 4s.; 7 in. 2s. 6d.; 6 in. 1s. 6d.; 4 in. 1s.
Neighbour's are still better.
I prefer Taylor's glasses to either.
A bell-glass nearly filled with honey.
But supposing you can afford to buy a straw hive with a hole already worked at the top—and it will not cost above a shilling more—you are to place the board with a corresponding hole on the top of this, and, till the middle of June, a small board over, or bung in the hole of the board. Then take it out as before, and place over it your bell-glass or small straw hive, and act thenceforth as already described.
