What Some Say of our Standard- 

 Bred Italian Queens: 



(ieoftje ir. York tt: Co.: — The two queens re- 

 ceived of you some time ago are tine. They 

 are good breeders, and the workers are show- 

 ing up fine. I introduced them among black 

 bees, and the bees are nearly yellow now, and 

 are doing good work. A. W. Swan. 



Nemaha Co., Kan., July 15. 



(iconje ir. York <fc Co.: — After importing 

 queens for 15 years you have sent me the best. 

 She keeps 9'.j La ngstroth frames fully occu- 

 pied to date, and, although I kept the hive 

 well contracted to force them to swarm, they 

 have nover built a queen-cell, and will put up 

 100 pounds of honey if the flow lasts this 

 week. Chas. Mitchell. 



Ontario, Canada, July 22. 



(leonje H', York it Co.: — The queen I bought 

 of you has proven a good one, and has given 

 me some of my best colonies.

Washington Co., Va., July 22 



George W. York <t' Co..-— The queen I re- 

 ceived of you a few days ago came through 

 O.K., and I want to say that she is a beauty. 

 I immediately introduced her into a colony 

 which had been queenless for 20 days. She 

 was accepted by them, and has gone to work 

 nicely. I am highly pleased with her and 

 your promptness in tilling my order. Jly 

 father, who is an old bee-keeper, pronounced 

 her very fine. You will hear from me again 

 when I am in need of something in the bee- 

 line. E. E. McColm. 



Marion Co., II!., July 13.

"IjanKHtroth on the Honey-Bee"— 



Ihe well-known bee-book revised by the 

 Dadants— has juet passed into another edi- 

 tion. There have been some 75 pages added 

 to it, and the whole work brought down to 

 date in every respect. It Is certainly a Bne 

 book, and should be read by every bee-keeper. 

 It Is really a classic. To become acquainted 

 with the great I.angstroth through the read- 

 ing of his book is no small thing. Other bee- 

 books are good, but there Is only one ■' Lang- 

 stroth on the Honey-Bee." The latest re- 

 vised edition will be sold at the same price as 

 the one preceding, which is *1.20, postpaid. 

 We still have a few copies of the old edition 

 on hand, which we will mall at 90 cents each, 

 if preferred, so long as jthey last. We club 

 the new edition of this book with the Ameri- 

 can Bee Journal for one year— both for $2.00. 

 So long as we have any copies left of the old 

 edition, we will send it with the American Bee 

 Journal one year— both for $1.80.
