REQUEENING 



with Standard-Bred 

 Italian Queens. 



The demand for our Fine Standard- 

 Bred Untested Italian Queen is increas- 

 ing rapidly, because they give satis- 

 faction. Here is what two of many 

 pleased customers have to say; 



George W. York & Co.— 



I must tell you how well pleased I am with 

 the Queen you sent me last year. I thought 

 I had some pretty good Queens myself, but 

 the one you sent me is the best Queen I have 

 now. You know we have had. and are still 

 having, a severe drouth. White clover last- 

 ed only two weeks, and while my average of 

 honey per colony is about 40 pounds of sur- 

 plus, the bees from the Queen you sent me 

 have gathered, so far. more than 100 pounds 

 of tine honey. They are hustlers, indeed, 

 and the bees are very gentle. Twenty dol- 

 lars would not buy that Queen. .-Vfter this 

 I know where I will get my Queens. 



G. A. Barbisch. 



Houston Co.. Minn.. July 14, IQIO. 



George W. York & Co.— 



I have had a good many Queens from you 

 in the past, and have never gotten a poor 

 one. iRev.) Milton M.^hin. 



New Castle, Ind.. July 18, igio. 



We could publish many more testi- 

 inonials like the above, but what would 

 be the use ? As " the proof of the pud- 

 ding is in the eating " thereof, so the 

 proof of the value of our good Queens 

 is in getting and trying them yourself. 

 Send m your order at once and see the 

 nice, vigorous Queens you will get. 

 Some of the largest honey-producers in 

 this country use our Queens. They 

 know what they want, and where to get 

 it. That is the reason they order our 

 Queens. 



If you have not had any of our Stan- 

 dard-Bred Queens, why not get one of 

 them now with a renewal of your sub- 

 scriptidn to the American Bee Journal? 

 No matter if your subscription is now 

 paid in advance, we will credit it still 

 another year, and also send you the 

 Queen. 



We mail one Queen with the Bee 

 Journal for a year — both for only $1.40. 

 Queen alone is 7.5 cents; 3 for $2.10; 6 

 for $4.00 ; 12 for $7.50. These prices are 

 exceedingly low in view of the excel- 

 lence of the Queens. It pays to get 

 good stock. Mr. Barbisch as well as 

 thousands of others have proven this. 



Now is the time to requeen your col- 

 onies. Why not order some of our 

 good Queens ? 



We are now sending Queens almost 

 by return mail, and expect to con- 

 tinue to do this until the end of the 

 season, .\ddress all orders to —
