««i=ki=k^^ Yellow to the 

 UCwIl^ Tip. 



Great big yellow beauties, worth many times their 

 weight in gold. That is the kind of queens Trego 

 raises. 



Who Buys Them ? 



Geo. E. Hilton, W. Z. Hutchinson, W. S. Hart, J. 

 F. Mclntyre, Jas. A. Green, and about 600 others not 

 so well known. For the rest of the season there will 

 be very few drones near me except very yellow 

 ones, and nearly every queen should get 4 and 6 

 banded bees.
