says that if you wish any of those nice Italian bees, 

 at $7.00 a colony, you must speak quick, for they 

 are going fast. The reason that they go so fast is 

 because each colony contains a nice $4.00 queen. 

 See page 245 of Gcranings for April 1st.

If you are ever annoyed by the scraping and breaking of combs; 

 killing bees when setting a frame to one side, or hanging it in 

 the hive; sagging at the bottom and getting waxed last; shak- 

 ing about when moving a hive; in short, it you dislike to pry 

 and wrench your frames, break combs, and kill bees while 

 handling them, you will be pleased with this hive.
