 me, and Save Freight Charges. Bees, 

 Queens, and Nucleus Colonies from the very

I have as good stock as there is in the United 

 States, so says The A. I. Root Co. Besides hav- 

 ing selected choice queens from my own stock 

 from time to time during the entire season, I 

 have bought select queens from a number of 

 breeders of high repute. 



In addition to these I have a dozen imported 

 queens due direct from Italy any day. 

 To this, add 



AN EXTRA SELECT TESTED 



DAUGHTER OF THE A. I. 



ROOT COMPANY'S $200.00 



RED -CLOVER ftUEEN 



who=;e bees have a reach of 31 hundredths of 

 an inch, and three select queens of Moore's 

 long-tongue strain, and I feel that my stock is 

 at the top of the present development of supe- 

 riority. Untested queen, SI. 00; tested queen, 

 $1.50; select tested queen, $2.50 to fo.OO. Root's 

 goods at Root's prices— plus carload freight.
