MOORE'S STRAIN OF ITALIANS 



AS RED-CLOVER WORKERS. 



I<. C. MedkifT, Salem, N. J., says: "I bought an un- 

 tested queen of you last year, and her bees have filled 

 three comb-hone^' supers, and did not swarm, while 

 thirteen out of the fifteen other colonies did not get 

 more than half that amount 



I have queens from six diiTerent breeders, and I 

 class yours lOO per cent above them all. Your bees 

 worked very strong on the first crop of red clover. I 

 know they were yours, because I floured them with a 

 dredge-box and watched the hive. They also worked 

 strong on the second crop of red-clover and lima-bean 

 blossoms." 



Untested queens, 75c each; six, S4.00; dozen, S7.50. 

 Select untested, $1.00 each; six, $5.00; dozen, 89.00. Safe 

 arrival and satisfaction guaranteed. 



Send for descriptive circular showing whv my 

 queen-trade has grown so fast. I ain now filling 

 orders by return inail. and shall probably be able to 

 do so till the close of the season.

S>6o Best StocK ! 



Twenty years' experience in rearing Italian queen 

 bees, and producing honey on a large scale has t'lughl 

 me the value of the best stock, and what the best 

 queens reared from that best stock mean to the hon- 

 ey producer. I have always tried to improve my 

 stock by buj-ing queens from breeders who hieed for 

 honey-gathering instead of color; then by crossing 

 these different strains and .selecting th- best and 

 breeding from them I have secured a strain of stock 

 that is the equal of any for honey-gathering. 



Delanson. New York, .lul.v 10. 1902. 

 Mk. Robey— Dear Sir: Thf queens tliat I bought 

 of you two years ago were the fiin st lot, and the best 

 honey-gatherers of any queens I ever had, and T have 

 had over KXIO queens from the princijial queen -breed- 

 ers of the United States. E. VV. Alexander.
