BY RETURN MAIL. 



After June 8, 100 of J. F. Wood's warranted Ital- 

 ian queens, at $8.00 per dozen. If less than one 

 dozen are wanted, 75 cts. each is my price. I wish 

 to call special attention to the fact that I have con- 

 trol of all bees within three miles of my apiary, and 

 can largely control the mating of my queens with 

 the drones I choose. I did not have one per cent of 

 my queens mismate last season, hence I am able to 

 warrant every queen without extra charge. Every 

 queen that proves to be mismated will be replaced 

 by a select tested queen, suitable for a mother-bee. 

 Safe arrival guaranteed, and queens warranted to 

 be as good as those of any first-class breeder. All 

 letters will receive my personal attention as soon as 

 received. JAS. F. WOOD,
