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..j0. 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 

 Standard-Bred Queens.
