Queens can be reared in the upjfer stoiies 

 of hives used for extracted honey, where a 

 queen-excluding honey-board is used, which 

 are as good, if not superior, to Queens 

 reared by any other process; and that, too, 

 while the old Queen is doing duty below, 

 just the same as though Queens were not 

 being reared above. This is a fact, though 

 it is not generally kuown. 



If you desire to know how this can be 

 done — how to have Queens fertilized in up- 

 per stories, while the old Queen is laying 

 below — how you may safely introduce any 

 Queen, at any time of the year when bees 

 cay fly — all about the different laces of 

 bees — all al>out shipping Queens, queen- 

 cages, candy fo!' queen-cages, etc. — all 

 about forming nuclei, multiplj-ing or unit- 

 ing bees, or weak colonies, etc. ; or, in fact 

 everything about the queen-business which 

 you may want to know, send for " Doolit- 

 tle's Scientific Queen-Rearing;'' a book of 

 170 pages, which is nicely bound in cloth, 

 and as interesting as any story. Price, 

 »1.00. 



Au edition in strong paper covers is is- 

 sued for premiums. It will be mailed as a 

 present to any one who will send us two 

 new subscribers to either of our Jouux.vT.s.
