Twenty-five years of select breeding from the best, 



We are prepared to ship queens by return mail, or on very short notice, t-very 

 queen sent out by us is guaranteed to arrive in perfect condition and to give absolute 

 satisfaction. Our strains have proved themselves to be not only great honey gatherers 

 but also very resistant to disease, especially European foulbrood. 



Listen to what others say about them: 



"One of your queens built up from a nucleus and made 360 pounds of surplus honey. 

 Enclosed tind $7f> for fifty queens. I want these for requeeniiig European foull)rood 

 cilonies, as I find your stock resistant." Troy, Pa. (Name on request.) 



"The queens I got from you have all the others skinned. They are gentle, best of 

 workers and stand the long winters here. Other queens coming from a shorter dis- 

 tance do not hold a candle to them." Gilbert Plains, Man., Canada.
