I Is greater this season than ever. Why? Because his FAMOUS LONG-TONGUED RED- 



' CLOVER STOCK has won a world-wide reputation for hooey-gatheridg, hardiness, and 



I g-entieaess. iney were working so thick on a field of red clover at hayiug-time that 



' the man who cut it was afraid to drive his horses into it to mow it. Their long tongues 



I enable them to secure nectar beyond the reach of short-tongned bees. 



Untested Queens, 75c each; six, $4; dozen, $7.50. Select Untested, $1 each; six, $5; 



[ dozen, $9. Safe arrival and satisfaction guaranteed. Descriptive circular free.
