Advertisement.— In Italy we have but one race of bees. So all my que ens are warrant 

 ed very pure. I have been keeping bees these last 10 years, and have never had a single 

 case of foul brood (which is scarcely to be found in this country). It is scarcely necessary 

 for me to say that 1 take every possible care to avoid it. So my customers must never have 

 any fear of contagion from my bees. All my queens are reared from extra-selected breed- 

 ing queens most carefully tested. 



Conditions.— Cash with orders. The queens that die on the journey will be replaced 

 provided they are sent back immediately in their boxes. Purchasers are eagerly requested 

 to write their addresses very clear.
