EUROPEAN FOULBROOD 



is spreading in various parts of the country. The first 

 step in its cure is a vigorous strain of ITALIANS 



The Root Strain of Bees have Shown 

 Themselves to be Highly Resistant 



While we do not claim their introduction will alone cure European Foulbrood, or 

 that it will not make a start in their colonies, we have reports of where they have, 

 with a little help, fought themselves nearly clean of European Foulbrood which was 

 all around them in black and hybrid colonies. 



These queens will be ready for delivery about June 1. Orders will be filled in rota- 

 tion. Later in the season we will make delivei'y promptly. 



PRICES.— Our regular price is $1.50 in June and $1.00 after July 1 for untested 

 queens; but we will club them with Gleanings in Bee Culture for one year and a 

 queen for $1.50, provided we can fill orders for queens when we have a surplus of 

 them. This will probably be July and August.
