6 Queens for $4.50 ; 3 for $2.50 ; 

 1 for 90 cents. 



For a number of years we have been sending out to 

 bee-keepers exceptionally fine Untested Italian Queens, 

 purely mated, and all right in every respect. Here is 

 what a few of those who received our Queens have to say 

 about them : 



George W. York & Co. :— The two queens received of you some 

 time ago are fine They are grood breeders, and the workers are 

 showing- up fine I Introduced them among: black bees, and the beea 

 are nearly yellow now, and are doing: g:ood work. 



Nemaba Co , Kan , July 15. A. W. Swan. 



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

 have sent me the best She keeps 9 1-2 Lang-stroth frames fully oc- 

 cupied to date. and. although I kept the hive well contracted, to force 

 them to swarm, they have never built a queen-cell, and will put up 

 100 pounds of honey If the flow lasts this week. 



Ontario, Canada July 22 Chas. Mitchell 



George W. York & Co. :— The queen I bought of you has proven a 

 g:ood one. and hasg'iven me some of the best colonies. 



Washington Co., Va., July 23. N. P. Oqlesbt. 



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

 ago came through O. K . and I want to say that she is a beauty. I im- 

 mediately introduced her Into a colony which had been queenless for 

 20 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. E. McColm.
