GLEANINGS IN BEE CULTURE.

SHOULD prove to be impurely mated, another queen 

 will be sent free of charge. Safe arrival in first-class 

 condition will be guaranteed. Instructions for intro- 

 ducing will be sent to every purchaser ; and if these 

 instructions are followed, and the queen is lost, an- 

 other will be sent free of chnrge. This is not all; if at 

 any time within two years, a purchaser, for any reason 



another is sent. If the queen proves a poor layer, or 

 the stock does not come up to the expectations, or 

 there is any reason why the bargain is not satisfac- 

 tory, the queen can be returned and the money will 

 be refunded, and the customer fairly well paid for his 

 trouble. I could not make this last promise if I did 

 I not KNOW that the stock is really superior.

A COZY CORNER IN THE HOME APIARY OF E. FRANCE & SON. ^Frotn June Review.) 



WHATEVER, is not Satisfied with his bargain, he can 

 return the queen, and his money will be refunded, 

 and 50 cents extra sent to pay him for his trouble. It 

 will be seen that the purchaser runs no risk what- 

 ever. If a queen does not arrive in good condition, 

 another is sent. If he loses her in introducing, an- 

 other is sent. If she should prove impurely mated. 



I said that the price is 11.50 each. There is only one 

 condition under which a queen will be sold for a less 

 price, and that is in connection with an advance sub- 

 scription to the Review. Any one who pays $1.00 for 

 the Review for 1900 can have a queen for $1.00. That 

 is. you can have the Review for 1900 and a queen for 

 S2.0O. I am now filling orders by return mail.

Queens on Trial. 



In 1895 Mr. L,. M Brown, 218 Tenth St., Sioux City, 

 Iowa, bought 3 queens; in 1897, 12 queens; in 1899, 80 

 queens; this season, 95, all for his own use. Many of 

 my customers of this year have bought queens from 

 me for years, and tested dozeu'^, scores, or hundreds 

 of them. This means that the queens are good ones. 

 and satisfactory. We are now over our rush, and can 

 fill orders for the best of queens promptly. Queens 

 are carefully reared from one of Doolittle'.s'best moth- 

 ers. Cells are large and well fed ; queens sent out are 

 large fine ones that lay well. Any injured in transit, 

 or unsatisfactory, replaced free. To induce a trial we 

 make these prices: One queen, 60 cts.; 3 or more, .50 cts. 

 each; select warranted, 80 cts.; extra select warranted,
