TESTED 



QUEEfiS, 



At #1.00 each. As usual, I am 

 requeening my apiary this 

 spring with 3'oung queens from 

 the South, and, that the tested 

 (jueens that are removed may 

 move off fjuickly, I offer them 

 at li.oo; or six for I5.00. These 

 {jueens are fine Italians of last 

 year's rearing, and right in 

 their prime. The Review one

Ho Fish-Bone 



Is apparent in comb honey w-hen 

 the Van Deusen, flat - bottom 

 foundation is used. This style 

 of fouiulation allows the making 

 of a more uniform article, hav- 

 ing a irrv thin base, with the 

 surplus wax in the side - walls, 

 where it can be utilized by the 

 bees. Then the bees, in chang- 

 ing the base of the cells to the 

 natural shape, work over the 

 wax to a certain extent; and the 

 result is a comb that can scarcelj- 

 be distinguished from that buiU 

 wholly by the 1)ees. Being so 

 thin, one pound will fill a large 

 number of sections. 



All the Trouble of wiring 

 brood frames can be avoided by 

 using the Van Deusen wired. 



Send ror circular; price list, 

 and samples of foimdation.
