Excerpt from Gleanings in Bee Culture, 1884, Vol. 12 W. Z. Hutchinson: Will not pouring in honey at the entrances incite robbing? D. A. Jones: I do not pour it in at the entrance.

For the reason that it comes in smaller sheets, and the waste would be greater. C. F. Muth: Mr. Jones sent me some perforated zinc. [thought there was more than I should ever sell. It was all sold long ago, and l have since then sold large quantities, and my customers are well pleased with it. They tell me that the queens never pass through it.
