Bees For Sale 



I didn't intend to sell any bees this spring. In- 

 stead, 1 expected to buy more. I probably shall 

 buy some any way— get them of farmers, and trans- 

 fer and Italianize. Every spring, for several 

 years, I have sold bees, hence, inquires come every 

 day or two asking if 1 will sell any this spiing. So 

 far, I have said "no." There is only one thing 

 that would induce me to sell, and that would be 

 the priie. The bees have wintered exceedingly 

 well, have plenty of stores, and have started a lot 

 of brood. The colonies are unusually strong; and, 

 as 1 stood looking at them the other day, flying so 

 merrily, and filling the air with their joyful hum, 

 the thought came to me, if a man should come 

 along and say, "Hutchinson, I'll give you $400 for 

 the lot." (40 colonies) 1 would be tempted to take 

 it; and yet I feel sure that they would bring me in 

 that much honey, and 1 w.uld have the bees left. 

 Honestly, I would not care to sell a colony for less 

 than$10.00. If any one cares to pay that much, 

 I'll let a colony go. 



The bees are pure Italian, of the Moore strain; 

 the hives new, ten-frame Langstroth; the combs 

 built on wired foundation. There are plenty of 

 bees, brood and stores. ! can think of nothing that 

 would make colonies more desirable Safe ar- 

 rival in perfect condition guaranteed.

 In the laiter the grate is under, that it may have a 

 full head of smoke ready on the job at a touch of 

 bellows.

 bound bellows up and down the fire-grate gives a 

 combined hot and cold blast. 



The side grate forms a double wall for fire, and 

 riveting the braced bracKets, fastened to bellows by 

 bolts with lock nuts.

Advanced Bee- Veil 



Postpaid, All Cotton, oOc; Silk Face. 60c: All Silk, 90c. 



Made of Imported French Tulle Veiling; cord 

 arrangement which permits -wearer to handle 

 bees in shirt-sleeves with no chance of bees 

 crawling up and under veil. With a hat of 

 fair size brim to carry veil away from face you 

 are as secure from stings, movements as free 

 and unrestricted, and as cool and comfortable 

 as you would be at a summer resort. 



Please send me two mote bee-veils. I have tried 

 all kinds, and yours are best of all. —N. E. France, 

 Platteviile, Wisconsin. 



Editorial Comment in Bee Keepers' Review: The 

 Advanced Bee-veil is something that I have worn 

 with great comfort the past few weeks. The peculiar 

 feature of the veil is, the edges are held down firmly 

 on the shoulders away f:om the neck. This does 

 away wiih all chance of stings and the hot, suffocat- 

 ing, uncomfortable feeling found in other veils that 

 are tucked in close about the neck — W. Z.
