A Bear in the Apiary. 



I have just lost an entire api- 

 ary of 52 colonies by bear. I 

 had the very good fortune to kill 

 a very large one right iti the 

 ■midst of the wreckage. I have 

 a very good 5x8 picture of this 

 Bear, in the apiary he destroy- 

 ed. This is the greatest novelty 

 in the way of an apiarian view I 

 have ever seen. I will send you 

 one of these pictures for 35 cts. 

 postpaid, or as a premium for 

 each half dozen queens ordered. 



Don't forget that my specialty 

 is the best queens from the best 

 stock that it is possible to pro- 

 cure, and that my motto is 

 promptness. I also handle The 

 A. I. Root Co.'s supplies at their 

 prices, plus 55 cts. per 100 lbs. 

 to pay carload freight. Send 

 for price list.
