Having determined to devote my time and attention e.\'clu.sively to the production of pure Italian bees 

 and queens, during- the season of 1886, I offer, in order to reduce stock, 60 C'liolce Colonies of Pure 

 Italians in 10 Langstrotii frames, guaranteed to contain at least 4 full frames of brood and 4 lbs. of bees 

 in new chaff hive, at $10.00 each. I append my prices for the season. 



My terms are cash with the order. First orders will be filled first. I will refund money at any time a 

 customer may become dissatisfied with waiting. 



My methods: One kind, and the best of that kind. Nothing except tested queens sold at any price. I 

 will send one-year-old queens until stock is exhausted, and then this season's hatch. I will commence to 

 send, about May 1st.

 pounds of bees, I will pay express charges for the first 1000 miles. Now remember, I guarantee safe ar- 

 rival and absolute satisfaction in q,ll cases. Sample of live workers free by mail. Capacity, 35 queens 

 per day after May 1st. ' '
