I have bred this strain for over 15 yearsl 

 and have tried Queens from several dis 

 tricts in Krain and Ober-Krain. Austria, I 

 am trying, this summer. Imported Queens 

 bred -by Johann Stegar. F, Unger. and a few 

 others; and a Queen I got from Frank Ben- 

 ton, that came from the cold Alps Moun- 

 tains of upper Carniola- I am also getting i- 

 lb- of bees and a Queen from the Imperial 

 Royal Agricultural Association of Carniola. 

 Austria, The drones will be well controlled 

 and bred from the colonies that gave the 

 best average yield in a yard of 300 colonies 

 last summer. 4Ait

Mexico as a Bee-Country 



B, A, Hadsell. of Buckeye, Arizona— one of 

 the largest bee-keepers in the world— has 

 made 5 trips to Mexico, investigating that 

 country as a bee-country, and is so infatua- 

 ted with it that he is closing out his bees in 

 Arizona. He has been to great expense in 

 getting up a finely illustrated pamphlet de- 

 scribing the tropics of Mexico as a Bee- 

 Man's Paradise, which he will mail free by 

 addressing him— —^-■^-'
