"POUNDS OF BEES" 



To the practical Beekeepers of Canada. 

 Past experience proves to us that It does not 

 pay to sell bees in pound packages earlier 

 than May 1st, but after that date, which is 

 just after our Orange Blossom flow, finds 

 our hives full of young bees and sealed brood. 

 So we can offer bees after May 1st, 1 pound, 

 J1.60; 6 pound lots, J1.25; 10 pound lots, Jl.OO 

 per lb. In lots of 100 pounds in separate 

 pound packages. 90c. per pound F.O.B. 

 Rialto, Cal. Untested queens to go with 

 them. $1.00 each, J4.25 for six, J8.00 per 

 dozen; $60.00 per 100, or queens by mail at 

 above prices. Safe arrival and satisfaction 

 to all customers. Express charges to or 

 near Toronto, around 25c. per pound in lots 

 of 10 or more at one time.
