WHY ORDER FARMER QUEENS? 



They are bred by as skillful and experienced queen breeders as can be found in 

 the United States. There are very few places where queens are reared un- 

 der as favorable conditions as in our queen-rearing yards. We devote our time to 

 rearing as good queens as possibly can be, and guarantee that no better can be reared. 

 We spare neither labor nor money in developing our queens. Our original stock was 

 procured from the highest quality obtainable, which we have improved to the highest 

 point. Every queen must give satisfaction or the deal is not closed. 



You take no risk in buying our queens. Safe arrival and satisfaction in U. S. A. 

 and Canada. Satisfaction is left entirely to purchaser. Prompt service given to all 

 orders. Every queen guaranteed to be purely mated.
