It is in the form of a flower-pot, open at the top, and provided with a flat cover in the same man- ner as the hive last described. As in this last, also, a certain number of bars are fastened to the upper- most roll of straw, each designed for the foundation of a comb ; and when prepared for use, the cover is laid above these bars, fixed at the edges by wooden pins, or sewed with pack-thread, and having the joining carefully plastered with clay. (See Plate X. , fig. 4. ) This hive affords cons...iderable faci- lities for forcing the bees to work in wax. It is only necessary to remove one or two of the combs, and the bees will immediately commence filling up the vacancies. In this way, a portion of their honied stores may be abstracted without difficulty, and with- out having recourse to the barbarous practice of suf- focation. It affords also the means of making arti- ficial swarms. It will be observed that in conse- quence of the diameter of the hive gradually dimin- ishing towards the bottom, rods inserted through the body of the hive are rendered unnecessary, the wedge-like form of the combs serving sufficiently to support them.
