 Sandpoint, 

 Idaho 



Uuuuer 

 County 



This part of the country (Northern 

 Idaho) is exceptionally fine for bee- 

 keeping, dairying, poultry, etc. The 

 climate is hard to beat. Practically 

 unlimited territory that is unoccupied. 

 The Clovers (white clover, especially), 

 willow-herb, golden-rod, berries, etc., 

 abound everywhere in this region. 

 Land can be had at all prices, depend- 

 ing upon location, condition of cultiva- 

 tion, etc. I will be glad to help any 

 one to a good location for bees, etc., if 

 requested. I, myself, have no land for 

 sale. Soil and drinking water are of 

 the best. No irrigation necessary here.

For a number of years we have been sending out to

 what a few of those who received our Queens have to say 

 about them :

We usually begin mailing Queens in May, and con- 

 tinue thereafter on the plan of " first come first served." 

 The price of one of our Untested Queens alone is 90 

 cents, or with the old American Bee Journal for one 

 year — both for $1.60. Three Queens (without Journal) 

 would be $2.50. or 6 for $4.50. Full instructions for in- 

 troducing are sent with each Queen, being printed on the 

 underside of the address-card on the mailing-cage. You 

 cannot do better than to get one or more of our fine
