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 otliers 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 5 

 banded Ijees. 



Ventura, Cal , Aug. 18, 1893. 



S. F. r»e£f();— Enclosed find $5.00 for 6 queens. 

 Since I have been in California I have bought 

 queens of nearly all of the principal breeders in the 

 U. S.. but I never had queens that gave me the satis- 

 faction in all points that yours do. 



L. E. Mercek. 



Mr. M. is one of California's great houey-producers, 

 and ought to be a good judge of queens.
