TO BE satisfactory must be born 

 LI^tMlS Right. The more favorable the 



^^ conditions, the better the queens 



~ ~ ' "^ ™ ™" are. I've been studying for ten 

 years how to make the conditions most favorable. As 

 a result, I sold more queens last May than I ever did 

 in one month, and nearly as many this season as I 

 ever sold in one year. I rear my cells by Doolittle's 

 method, from best selected golden mothers. Poor 

 cells and queens not u<-ed. One WARRANTED queen 

 — select — 75cts.: six, S3. 25: dozen, $6 00. Safe arrival 

 and satisfaction GUARANTEED. Prompt shipment.
