What Some Say of our Standard- 

 Bred Italian ttueens: 



George W. York & Co..— The two queens re- 

 ceived of you some time ago are tine, iney 

 are good breeders, and the workers are show- 

 ing up fine. I introduced them among black 

 bets, and the bees are nearly yellow now, and 

 are doing good work. A. W. Swan. 



Nemaha Co., Kan., July 15. 



George W. York * Co.;-After importing 

 ciueens for 15 years you have sent me the best. 

 She keeps 91., Langstroth frames fully occu- 

 pied to date: and, although I kept the hive 

 well contracted to force them to swarm, they 

 have never built a queen-cell, and will put up 

 100 pounds of honey if the flow lasts this 

 week Chas. Mitchbll.

Oeorqe W. York * Co.;-The queen I bought 

 of you has proven a good one, and has given 

 me some of my best colonies. ^ ^ Qglbsby. 



Washington Co., Va., July 22 



(ieorne W. York cfc Co.;-The queen I re- 

 ceived of you a few days ago came through 

 OK 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 g.o°« '° ^-o^^ 

 nicely. I am highly pleased with her and 

 vour promptness in filling my order. My 

 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-

This is an exceptional opportunity for 

 those of small means to get in on the 

 ground floor in a business which legiti- 

 mately pa\s large dividends and is ae 

 Bolid as the Rock of Gibraltar. It cannot 

 be held open for long as the response is 

 certain to be so great that we shall 

 \ have all the capital we need to increase 

 the number of our presses and secure 

 Btock to be turned out in completed 

 books, whifh are selling like wildfire. 



You owe it to yourself to investigate 

 this opportunity. You will never have a 

 a chance like this again to become
