We luive jnst purchased all the Tested Caniiolau Queens that John Andrews, 

 of the late lirm of Andrews & Lockport, has now wintering in his 100 colonies, 

 except what was ordered prior to January 7, 1890. These queens are to pro- 

 duce no bees showing yellow bands, and are to be shipped in May. Anyone 

 in need of a fine breeding queen early in the season should correspond with 

 me, or anyone interested in the Carniolan bees should read our catalogue de- 

 scribing these bees.
