FOREHAND'S THREE BANDS 



THE THRIFTY KIND 



We have been breeding these queens for the market tor over a quarter of a century. They are bred from 

 the imported Italians, but by select breeding we have brightened the color and retained the good qualities 

 of their mothers. 



After years of select breeding we have built up a strain of bees that, are surpassed by none, but 

 superior to many. Our queens are thrifty, hardy, gentle and beautiful. 



We guarantee pure mating, safe arrival and satisfaction.
