A GOOD QUEEN 



may bring you $.50 worth of honey, while a poor one may bring you nothing; therefore, the cost of a good 

 queen is trifiing compared with the returns she brings. Every queen we send out is reared by me person- 

 ally, and I spare no labor or expense to produce those "good queens" we all desii-e. I give the strongest 

 guarantee with all queens sent out, and if any should prove other than a first-class queen, I will gladly re- 

 place her upon request. The customer's word is good. I could not afford to do this if I did not have faith 



in the queens I sell. 



THEY CLEAN UP EUROPEAN FOUL BROOD 



"Your bees last year made me the biggest crop I ever had and, besides, they cured the European foul- 

 brood I had, while I lost all my black bees with it." — Martin Bettheuiser, Tunnel City, Wis. 



THEY ARE GOOD HONEY GETTERS 



"Your queens proved themselves to be what their producer claimed, 'fine gatherers.' " — E. A. Palmer, 

 Empire, Panama Canal Zone. 



THEY AREIGENTLE 



"Your bees are very gentle. I also find them to be very prolific, good workers and, 

 in my 12-frame Jumbo hives, not given to swarming." — Harry G. Fesenfeld, Black 

 Earth, Wis. 

 THEY ARE PRETTY . „ 



"Queens bought of you are producing some fine yellow bees. They are beauties. 

 — J. E. Beck. Arnold. Penn. 

 OUR BREEDERS MAKE GOOD 



"The breeder I got from you last year is the finest queen I ever had." — John 

 Rhodes, West Salem, Wis.
