We are the largest breeders of this race of bees in 

 America, having bred them for 18 years. We find 

 them the ^if«^/«< bees known. Very hardy and pro- 

 lific, good workers on red clover; great comb-builders, 

 and their sealed combs are of a snowy whiteness. 



Italians. 



Gentle, prolific, swarm very little, hustlers to work, 

 and a red-clover strain.

" Be very choice of this Breeder; if ever a Queen was worth $100, she is." Then we have Breeders from 

 our strain that gave the big yields in '94, and which some of the largest bee-keepers in Cuba say 

 can't be beat. They swarm but little and are honey-getters. We are breeding for honey-gatherers 

 more than color. We cull our cells and queens, and warrant queens purely mated. Prices: Select 

 untested, $1.00; select, 81.25, tested, $1.50; select, $2 00; breeders, 83.00, $4 00, and $5 00. Circulars free.

 who sent me an order for 75 queens at one time, says : 

 "I have a large apiary mostly of your stock, and I have 

 never, in my 30 years' experience, seen so quiet and 

 gentle bees to handle, and in storing capacity they ex- 

 cel anything I have ever had."
