Queens Yellow to the tip o • o 



Mated with 



• • • Drones Yellow all over. 



Queen motliers from an entirely different strain 

 from the drones, lience a direct cro^s. None liut 

 selected drones allowed to fly from the most desir- 

 able colonies. I am 4 or 5 miles from any otlier 

 Ijees, therefore I can practically control the mating 

 of my queens. Nine years as a queen specialist, 

 always taking care to secure direct crosses, liiis 

 convinced me that the golden Italians have no m- 

 periors. Queens sent by return mail if requestetl. 

 Safe arrival guaranteed, and every queen warrant- 

 ed in every respect. Price 75 u each ; $8 00 per doz.
