Winter Protection — When division- 

 boards are put in supers at sides next brood- 

 nest and bees seal up all cracks, thus creat- 

 ine double walled dead-air chambers on all 

 six sides of brood-nest, result is bees in our

 those of any colonies in ordinary hives.

HONEY AND BEESWAX 



Chicago. July 18— For the past month 

 there has been little doing in honey, so that 

 a market price is really a difficult thing to 

 quote, as parties who have carried over 

 their honey are accepting what they are 

 offered. We look for the new comb honey 

 to sell at about nc per pound for the best 

 grades of white, and for the time being the 

 ambers may bring nearly as much, as there 

 does not seem to be much of that in the 

 market. Extracted ranges from /@8c per 

 pound for the white, and 5@7C per pound for 

 the amber. 



Very little of the harvest of iq;6 is on this 

 market, and what there is, has not been sold, 

 the weather now being warm, the retail 

 trade are not endeavoring to sell. 



Beeswax is bringing 28@3oc per pound ac- 

 cording to color and cleanliness.

Kansas City. Mo., July 17.— There is quite 

 a heavy fiow of white clover honey in this 

 section, and on account of the heavy crop, 

 the demand is more or less slow. The price 

 for the best stock. 24 sections, ranges around 

 $3.50 a case. Extracted honey is moving fairly 

 well at 7C for old and 8c for new, 



C. C. Clemons Produce Company. 



San Antonio. July 17.— Owing to the large 

 crop of honey having been thrown on our 

 market, and the lack of cooperation among 



producers, the prices are somewhat demor- 

 alized South Texas bulk comb honey is 

 moving freely at 8c basis, and good quality 

 extracted at 6c. Prices show a tendency to 

 become stiffer. and we expect higher prices 

 to rule in this section within lo days Bees- 

 wax is firm at 2f;c cash and 27c exchange 

 basis. Southwestern Bee Co.

Better Queens and Bees for Less Money 



20 Years of Select Breading Gives Us Bees and Queans of Highest Quality 

 Queens for Honey Production Queens of Unusual Vitality 



QUEENS THAT SUCCESSFUL LY RESIST EUROPEAN F0UL3R0OD 



Our select colonies for breeding [imposes, larva and select drones are those of tlie 

 highest standard, the choice of over 1000 hustling honey producing colonies of pure Italian 

 bees. These select colonies are located at such a distance from all other bees as to assure 

 pure mating, and thus effective use of our select drones. The larva we use in grafting is as 

 small as can be seen and handled, having just come out of the egg These are placed cells 

 which in turn are placed and nourished in strong ten-frame colonies, which, when honey is 

 not coming in sufficiently, are heavily stimulated by feeding. Thus we get large, well nour- 

 ished cells which in turn produce large long-lived and hardy queens, which give workers 

 unexcelled for honey producing qualities. We use no baby nuclei. All our queens are 

 hatched and reared in strong three and five frame full depth hives. Thus natural condi- 

 tions are preserved and the best queens produced.
