Do you want to get some specimen queens of the world- 

 famous red-clover stock of Italian bees.' Then buy from me, 

 because I am the originator, and surely ought to know how to 

 breed them in their purity. When you get them from me you 

 know you have the real strain. For years 1 have devoted time 

 and skill to this stock, trying to reach perfection. I can submit 

 many splendid testimonials in favor of this stock to show my 

 work has not been in vain. Try them, and YOU will be 

 pleased also. I endeavor to please the practical man looking 

 for definite results in dollars and cents. Many years' experi- 

 ence as head apiarist of The A. 1. Root Co. enables me to fill the 

 most exacting order witn complete satisfaction to the purchaser
