You will be a busy 



bee if you locate 



in the Fertile 



Northwest 



Bee-Culture in the Northwest should prove sur- 

 prisingly attractive to the workers with Bees in 

 other parts of the country. 



Climate 



Bee-Food 



Orchards 



— The great diversity of climate due to the varied 

 altitudes and topographic features, atTords a wide 

 range of selection in locations, in this dry, mild, 

 and equable region. 



— The wonderfully fertile soil produces the finest 

 of clovers, alfalfa, peas, etc., so important in the 

 production of a good and pure article of honey. 

 Even the common sage-brush is noted for its value 

 in honey-production. 



— The vast acreage in orchards in the Northwest 

 should prove a strong argument to an experienced 

 bee-worker to move to this very fertile country. 

 Orchards and hives have been most profitably com- 

 bined already, in many instances. The superiority 

 of Northwestern fruit-blooms aids to produce a 

 superior quality of honey, and the bees perform a 

 reciprocal service in fruit-pollenization. 



Nowhere are there more stable and remunerative 



markets for good honey. The many large cities, 

 the rich mining carnps, and Alaska, provide the 

 best of markets right at home, at top prices.
