GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE. 



May 15. 



Queens are usually sold for $2.00. I will ex- 

 plain why 1 wish lo'sell a few at less than that. 

 As most of nuy readers know, 1 requeen my 

 apiary each spring- with young 



Sections, Bee= Hives, 



QUEENS 



From the South. This is done to do away with 

 swarming-. If done early enoug-h it is usually 

 successful. It will be seen that tlie queens 

 displaced by these young queens are never 

 more than a year old; in lact, they are fine 

 tested Italian queens, riuht in their piinic; yet, 

 in order that tiiey may move off quickly, and 

 thus make room for tiie untested queens, they 

 will be sold for only 



Or I will send the Fcvicic for 1P94 nnd one of 

 liiese que(-ns for only .$1.75. For K.OO I will 

 send tlie Hcvicw, the (jueen, and tlie book "Ad- ! 

 Viinced Bee Culture." It any prefer the youngp i 

 layhifi- queens from the South, they can have 

 them instead of the tested queens, at the same ! 

 price. A discount «-iven on large orders for | 

 untested queens. Say how many are wanted, 

 and a price will be made.
