Gray Carniolan Queens and Bees, 



Bred the coming season by tiie undersigned. As 

 the.se bees are a hardy race, so as to winter witli but 

 small loss, they are well adapted to our cold climate; 

 and as they breed up better than any other race of 

 bees known, they become of much importance to 

 both Northern and Southern bee-keepers. Send for
