By Return Mail, 



From that queen-s)3i cialist Jas. Wood, No. Prescott, 

 Mass. Queens yellow to the tip, mated with hand- 

 picked drones that have solid-yellow abdomens. 

 These drones are from a differeiit strain tiian the 

 queens, hence a direct cross is secured. As there are 

 no other bees within several miles of my yards I 

 can warrant them to produce a large per cent of 

 golden workers. I have several that pi'oduce work- 

 ers showing- 4 seg-ments solid yellow, with a little 

 yellow band on the .^th ; and nearly all will produce 

 from 60 to 95 per cent of the so-called 5-banded 

 workers. These queens will be sold at my regular 

 price during- the past eight years, 75 cts. each. 

 Please mention this paper. 



If You Wish to Smile, 



Try my fine Italian queens. Either 3 or 5 banded, 

 bred in different yards, 75 cts. each; *4.25 for 6, or 

 $8.00 per doz. Prices to dealers, and by the quantity, 

 on application. Fine breeders, $5.00; always on 

 hand. Prices for those that produce strictly .5-band- 

 ed bees, on application. Remember, I guarantee 

 safe arrival, and satisfaction in tlie bounds of rea-
