is trying to find a queen possessed of such superior qualities that he can afford to pay $100 for her; 

 and 'her daughters will be held at $25. I doubt if he finds a better queen than the one from which are 

 reared the queens that I am selling at $1.50 each. In all of my twenty odd years of experience in buy- 

 ing, selling, and testing stock from every possible source, I have found none that equals this strain. 

 Remember, too, that I guarantee safe arrival, safe introduction, purity of mating, entire satisfaction. 



At this time of the year queens can be reared at less cost than earlier in the season; hence, I am 

 going to make a little better offer; not in the price of queens themselves, as a queen alone will be SI 50, 

 but for $2.00 I will send a queen and the Review from the time the order is received to the end of 1900 ! 

 More value for $2.00 you will seldom receive.
