PfllflT POH 

 BEE-HIVES. 



After much experimentation, and a 

 careful study into the paint question, 

 we offer a mixed 



Paint Prepared Especially for Bee-Hives. 



It will not Chalk or Flake of. 



We guarantee it to be free from adulterants, 

 stich as whiting, barytes, lime, and other sub- 

 stitutes that do not add to the enduring quali- 

 ties of the paint. Our paint is made of strictly 

 pure lead, strictly pure zinc, and genuine French 

 ocher of about equal proportions, mixed in pure 

 linseed oil. It is generally recognized that there 

 is no pigment more permanent than French 

 ocher; and this, combined with zinc and lead, 

 makes a most durable combination. The re- 

 sultant tint is a pale straw color. Price: Pint, 

 3.5c; quart, 60c; half-gallon, $1.00; gallon, 11.75. 

 Half a gallon will cover ten No. 1 Dovetailed

Black and Hybrid Queens For Sale. 



For the benefit of friends who have black or hybrid queens 

 which they wish to dispose of. we will insert notices tree of 

 charge, as below. We do this because there is hardly value 

 enough in these queens to pay for buying them up and keep- 

 ing them in stock ; and yet it is oftentimes quite an accommo- 

 dation to those who can not afford higher-priced ones. 



I have 40 good hybrid queens for sale at 40c each, 

 or 3 for $1.00. None but good queens are sent. Safe 

 arrival guaranteed; stamps taken.
