Our Liberal Premium Offers 



We offer many premiums in this num- 

 ber for the work of getting new sub- 

 scribers for the .\merican Bee Journal. 

 We request every reader to help us in- 

 crease the list of regular subscribers. 

 It is not our aim to make more bee- 

 keepers, but to make better bee-keep- 

 ers of those who now are in the busi- 

 ness. Surely this is right. Why not 

 get your neighbor bee-keepers to take 

 the .American Bee Journal? It will 

 pay }X)U in more ways than one to do 

 such missionary work. We not only 

 pay you for it, but you will thus be 

 helping to inform the bee-keepers 

 around you how to conduct bee-keep- 

 ing in the proper way; how to keep 

 their bees free from disease; how not 

 to spoil the honey market for you and 

 themselves ; how — but there are so many 

 ways in which they would be helped 

 by reading the .American - Bee Journal 

 every month. .And the cost is so small^ 

 only 75 cents for a whole year — about 

 6 cents a month. We will be glad to 

 furnish free all the sample copies you 

 can use judiciously. Why not begin 

 now ?

For a number of yatts we have been sending out to bee-keep- 

 ers exceptionally tine Untested Italian Queens, purely mated, and 

 all right in every respect. Here is what a few of those who re- 

 ceived our Queens have to say about them ; 



What They Say of Our Qiueens 



George W. York & Co.:-Tho two queens received of you some time 

 ago are fine. They are ^ood breeders, and the workers are BbowiDg up fine. 

 1 introduced them among black bees, and the bees are nearly yellow now, 

 and are doinjr good work. A. W. SWAN.

George W. York & Co.:— After importing queens for 15 years you have 



sent me the best. She keeps hx baDgstroih frames fully occupied to date,' 

 and, although 1 kept ihe hive well contracted, to force them to swarm, they 

 never built a queen-cell, and will put up 100 pounds of honey If the

Washington Co., Va., July 2:2, 1905. 



George W. York & Co.:— The queen I received of you a few days ago 



came through O.K., and 1 want to say that she is a beauty. 1 Immediately 

 introduced her into a colony which had been queenless for 2n days. She 

 was accepted by them, and has gone to work nicely. I am highly pleased 

 with her and your promptness in filling my order. My father, who is an old 

 bee-keeper, pronounced her very fine. You will hear from me again when I 

 am in need of something in the bee-line. E. B. McCOLM. 



Marion Co., 111., July 13. 



We usually begin mailing Queens in May, and continue there- 

 after, on the plan of "first come first served.'' The price of one 

 of our Untested Queens alone is 75 cents, or with the monthly 

 American Bee Journal one year — both for $1,20, Three Queens 

 (without Journal) would be f 2 10, or 6 for $4.00. Full instructions for introducing are sent 

 with each Queen, being printed on the underside of the address-card on the mailing-cage. Yoo 

 cannot do better than to get one or more of our fine Standard-Bred Queens.
