THE BEE-KEEPERS' REVIEW 



I manufacture both the one and the four-piece sections, 

 and can g^ive customers their choice at the same price. The 

 one-piece is made of nice, white basswood, and sand- 

 papered on both sides. The four-piece is made of hard, 

 white poplar. The sections are 4^ x 4^ xl%, 1%^ or 7-to- 

 the-foot, and 4x5 plain. 



My prices are as follows: 1,000, $3.00; 2,000 for $5.75; 

 5,000 for $14.00; 10,000 for $27.00. A special price will be 

 made to those who order 10,000 to 30,000 in the winter. 



I also furnish BEE, QUEENS, and BEE-KEEPERS' 

 SUPPLIES. Send for descriptive circular, and sample of 

 section, and save money.

the best in the world. If you are looking for the bees that gather the most 

 honey, and are the gentlest of all bees to handle, buy the Albino, I can

DESCRIPTION OF THE ALBINO BEES» 



As to their marking, the difference between them and the pure Italian is 

 very striking. About the eyes they approach nearer a purple than that of 

 the Italian Beginning at the waist, they first have three distinct yellow bands, then three distinct 

 white — the white is pure, not muddy and dirty; the wings are finer and of a bright silver color. 

 What makes them so be utiful is, that the colors are bright — the white is white, and the black is 

 black, etc. Theirshoulders and the under part are thickly coated with white hair. 



The queens are large and beautiful. They are a bright yellow and generally have the while 

 hair, as described in the workers. As to their breeding, we can say the queens are very prolific.
