 1 for 75 cents. 



For a number of years we have been sending out to 

 bee-keegers exceptionally fine Untested Italian Queens, 

 purely mated, and all right in every respect. Here is 

 what a few of those who received our Queens have to say 

 about them : 



George W. York & Co. ;— The two Queens received of you some 

 time ago are tine They are erood breeders, and the workers are 

 showinj^ up fine I introduced them among" black bees, and the bees 

 are nearly yellow now, and are doing" good work. 



Nemaha Co , Kan , July 15. A. W. Swax. 



George W. York & Co ;— After importing queens for 15 years you 

 have sent me the best She keeps 9 1-2 Langstroth frames fully oc- 

 tMipled to date, and. although I kept the hive well contracted, to force 

 thein to swarm. Ihey have never built a queen-cell, and will put up 

 luu piinnds of honey if the flow lasts this week. 



Ontario. Canada July 23. Chas. Mitchell 



George W. York & Co.:— The queen I bought of you has proven a 

 good one. and has given me some of the best colonies. 



Washington Co., Va., July 22. N. P. Oglesby. 



George W York & Co. :— The queen I received of you a few days 

 ago came through O. K . and I want to say that she is a beauty. I im- 

 iiK-tluitely nitruduced her into a colony which had been queenless for 

 2U (lays. Shr was accepted by them, and has gone to work nicely. I 

 am highly pleased with her and your promptness in filhng my order. 

 My father, who is an old bee keeper, pronounced her very fine. You 

 will hear from me again when I am in need of something in the bee 

 line. E. E. McColm.

 cents, or with the old American Bee Journal for one 

 year — both for $1.40. Three Queens (without Journal) 

 would be $2.10, or 6 for $4.00. Full instructions for in- 

 troducing are sent with each Queen, being printed on the
