 son and had them build up from June 1st to strong colonies which, on an average, 

 made over 50 pounds of surplus honey, besides going into winter quarters with plenty 

 of stores. 



WHAT OTHERS SAY ABOUT OUR BEES 

 "The two 3-lb. packages bought of you last May did all right. One made 185 sec- 

 tions and gave one swarm, and the other made 296 sections and gave two swarms." 



(Name on request), Kimmell, Ind. 

 "The ten l-lb. swarms bought of you last spring, although delayed in transit, and 

 therefore taking five days to reach me, arrived in fine condition, not a cupful of dead 

 bees in the lot. They did well, more than paying for themselves the first season, and 

 went into winter quarters in fine condition." (Name on request), Alabama, N. Y. 



"We are only one mile from Lake Erie, and exposed to high, cold winds, in fact 

 this is the windiest place along the Great Lakes. Your bees were able to winter with 

 only an insignificant loss. As for honey, they averaged 176 lbs. each of extracted 

 surplus, did not swarm, and gave an artificial increase of 39 per cent, which is as fine 

 record as can be had in this locality, especially when the work is done entirely by 

 amateurs." (Name on request). North East, Pa. 



(The above were l-!b. packages and were worked by students going to college at 

 this place.)
