I Italian Bees. 



I am booking orders now for spring shipment 

 of Thoroughbred Italian Bees and Queens. My 

 two apiaries kept for breeding are situated on high 

 sandy soil — are strong with young bees and brood, 

 when queens at my other apiaries have just com- 

 menced laying — never known any dises.se. Send 

 in your orders now to insure prompt shipment 

 when season opens. Full colonies, with queen in 

 shipping-case, $6.00 ; 3-frame nucleus, with queen 

 in shipping-case, $3 00. In lots of 10 to 25 full 

 colonies or nuclei, 10 per cent off. As our spe- 

 cialty is Full Colonies and Nuclei, we do not care 

 to send single queens before May.

Our Improved Langstroth Simplicity Hive. We show 

 here a cut of our Langstroth Simplicity Hive, 

 the style which you will find described on page 

 3 of our new catalog. It is one of our oldest 

 styles, and is considered the simplest and best 

 hive for general use ever manufactured. We 

 are confident it will suit a large number of bee- 

 keepers who wish a good and serviceable hive 

 but do not care for so-called up-to-date devices. 

 We manufacture four other styles. Watch our 

 next adv't for cut of our Wisconsin hives. 



Our 1 901 Catalog is now ready. If you received our 

 1900 edition you will rtceive our new one. If 

 you did not, kindly send your address, and a 

 copy will be mailed you.
