Tested Queens by Return Mall, 

 —$1.00 Each— 



We haTe a large number of Choice Tested 

 -Queens, reared last September and October, and 

 wintered in 4frame nuclei; these queens are 

 vigorous and prolific, and of our fine strain of 

 Three-Band Italians. Just the queens to build 

 «ip weak colonies. Try them. Send for circular.

-* "lease mention Bee Jooroal -wban -writlnft 



they can make a living. I put the brood of 

 the 2 strongest colonies on the weakest one, 

 and so on till I am through. I always put all 

 the bees in the new hive. It saves time and I 

 do not have to look for the queen. 



I now have two-thirds of them finished, 

 with no danger of getting foul brood. I will 

 shake the young bees again in 3 weeks. Being 

 shaken so early they have plenty of young 

 bees of their own when the main honey-flow 

 comes. The weak ones are very strong after 

 being shaken, because of the brood that is 

 given to them, so the colonies are all strong 

 in time for the main honey-flow. 



When I shake the second time I take out 

 the combs from which brood has hatched, and 

 take them to the honey-house to be extracted, 

 putting the unhatched brood on the weakest 

 colonies as before. If there is any foul brood 

 I lose only the brood on the last one. If there 

 is none I set to one side and shake again in 3 

 weeks. I run no risks from foul brood. I 

 have shaken 14 colonies this spring, and have 

 seen no signs of it yet. A. T. Bain.

Adulterated Honey 



I suppose all bee-keepers know that comb 

 honey can not be adulterated in the frame or 

 section, but tons of glucose, with a small 

 piece of comb in it, are sold in Missouri. It 

 is always on sale nere in my own town, and 

 has been for years. I have talked with people 

 that had lx)ut.'lit it, and they say it has a 

 brassy taste, ni" 'it to eat. No doubt some 

 will say they uoulJn't think it could be sold 

 with good homy in other stores close by. 

 Well. I can't ex| lain it, but it is here for sale. 

 I visited a towc last year 10 miles from home 

 and found it iol .'■;ile in two stores. It comes 

 from the wholt^ac grocers at Kansas City. 



It we want t" .-top such stories as that in 

 the New York 1 rioune, weprobably will have 

 to stop the fair (rf the stuff. I have never 

 had a sample ;' ul.Tzed, but I am confident 

 that it is gluco- \ I think the stuff and the 

 blame the bee-keepers bear on account of it
