Mr. Applegard's single box hive, in use at his apiary, Kynaston Lodge, Harrow; working large and small bell-glasses, intended chiefly for bee-houses. This hive, from the simplicity of its construction, is well adapted for young apiarians. The principal features are the facility with which swarms are hived into it or joined to stocks, and the perforated zinc floor which is always clean.
