THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW. 323 



Superior Stock

^wJii 



For several years I have been selling a strain of bees that I have 

 called the Superior Stock. While I often receive testimonials in re- 

 gard to their superiority, it is very seldom that I publish one. Some- 

 times the temptation is too great to be resisted, and this seems to be 

 one of those occasions. Here it is: —

North King-sville, Ohio, Auo;. 24, 1W3. 

 Mr. W. Z. Hutchinson, 



Flint, Mich. 

 Dear Sir: 



The tested queen you sent me in I'XJO is still pro- 

 lific. Her colony and that of one of her daug-hters, in 

 1901 stored as much honey as teo colonies of hybrids. 

 It was not a very g-ood year for honey but there was 

 plenty of room on the red clover for The Superior Stock. 

 Hybrids gleaned a little dark honey from various sources 

 while the Superior Stock stored white honey. The 

 Superior Stock is rightly named. 

 Yours truly, 

 HERMANN E. CROWTHER.

Remember I guarantee safe arrival, safe introduction when di- 

 rections are followed, purity of mating, and entire satisfaction to the 

 extent that the queen mav be returned any time within two years, 

 and the money will be refunded, together with 50 cts. extra to pay 

 for the trouble. The price of a queen alone is I1.50, but I will send 

 the Review one year and book your order for one of these queens to 

 be sent next spring, for only |;2.oo. 



W. Z. HUTCHINSON, 



Flint, Michigan.
