Doolittle Says, Under date of Dec. 27, 1881: After a thorough and carefully conducted experiment with six different kinds of foundation for surplus boxes, I find that manufactured by G. W. Stanley & Bro, to excel all others so far tried. A test with 20 filled sections of each, shows it to be EVEN THINNER THAN NATURAL COMB, which does away with the fishbone center in our honey, so long urged against other makes of foundation.
