FOREHANDS' QUEENS. They Satisfy, Why? 



Because of 28 years of experimental work with both queen breeding and honey 

 production. 



With breeding and selecting of imported queens, I have reached a standard which 

 is ideal. Queens as good, but none BETTER. Why experiment? Take advantage of 

 the life experience of my breeders.
