 Queens of 



Moore's Strain of Italians 



Produce workers that fill the supers, and are not in- 

 clined to swarm. They have won a world-wide repu- 

 tation for honey-gathering, hardiness, gentleness, etc. 



Mr. W. Z. Hutchinson, editor of the Bee-keepers ' Re- 

 view, Flint, Mich., says, "As workers, I have never seen 

 them equaled. They seem possessed of a steady, quiet 

 determination that enables them to lay up surplus 

 ahead of others. Easier bees to handle I have never 

 seen." My queens are all bred from my best long- 

 tongued three-banded red-clover stock (no other race 

 bred in my apiaries), and the cells are built in strong 

 colonies well supplied with young bees. 



PRICES: Untested queens, $1.00 each; six, $5.00; doz., 

 $9.00. Select untested, $1.25 each; six, $6.00; doz., $11.00. 

 Select tested, $2; extra select tested, $3; breeders, $10.
