We were fortunate in making an arrangement with DR. C. C. fw\ 



MIIvLiER — the well-known honey-specialist — to rear queens EX- ^li 



CLUSIVELY FOR US DURING THE SEASON OF 1900. These ffX 



Queens will be mailed in rotation, so " first come first served." l^ 



The queens Dr. Miller will send out on our orders will be pre- fw\ 



cisely the same as those he rears for his own use, so of course they ^li 



will be from his be.st stock. His best colony in 1899 had a queen fw\ 



reared in 1898; Mayo, 1899, it had brood in four frames, and he give it at that time a frame of brood l»i 



without bees It had no other help, but May 25 a frame of brood with adhering bees was taken f9\ 



from it, and the same thing was repeated June 3, leaving it at that time five frames of brood. It j^^ 



stored 178 sections of honey, weighing 1.59 pounds (and that after July 20, in a poor season), being f§\ 



2% times the average yield of all his colonies. A point of importance is the fact this colony did not llc 



swarm, and an inspection every week or ten days showed that at no time during the entire season ff \ 



was there even so much as an egg in a queen-cell. Dr. Miller expects to rear queens from this one. ^»i 



The demand nowadays is for BEES THAT GET THE HONEV when there is any to get, and fW\ 



Dr. Miller has such bees. You will want to have a queen from bis best, we are sure. gji 



Don't send any orders to Dr. Miller, as all MUST come through us, according to our agreement. f i% 



Remember, send us SI. 50 for the weekly American Bee Journal for one year, and one of dr. Igl
