Mexico as a Bee-Country 



B. A. Hadsell, one of the most experienced 

 and largest beekeepers in the world — has 

 made six trips to Mexico, investigating that 

 place as a bee - country, and is so infat- 

 uated with it that he is closing out his bees 

 in Arizona. He has been to great expense 

 insetting up a finely illustrated 32page book- 

 let, describing the tropics of Mexico as a 

 Bee-Man's Paradise, which is also superior 

 as a farming, stock-raisingandfruit country. 

 Where mercury ranges between 55 and g8 

 Frost and sun-stroke is unknown Aiso a 

 great health resort. He will mail this book 

 Free by addressing, 7Ai2t

Missouri-Bred Queens ! 



My strain of bees is the result of man. 

 years' breeding and selection. I belic-v 

 they are equal to any. and surpassed hv 

 none. They are long-lived, winter well, 

 breed early, and are unexcelled honey-get 

 ters. The workers are long-bodied, good 

 sized bees, uniformly marked with bands of 

 orange yellow. They are good co-nb-build- 

 ers. gentle and easy to handle, and yet pro- 

 tect their homes from robbers. You will 

 make no mistake in introducing these 

 Queens into your apiary. I guarantee safe 

 delivery at your post-ofhce, and make a spe- 

 cialty of long and difficult shipments. I en- 

 deavor to keep a large supply of queens
