c A view of Mr. Chase's Apiary. 



Friend Hilton:— I started this spring with 16 colonies; 

 bought 30 three-frame nuclei of you ; have increased to 

 85 strong colonies with ample stores for winter with- 

 out feealng. Have taken 4000 lbs fine extracted honey 

 and a little comb (and no drawn combs to begin with) 

 all from full sheets of foundation. My best colony 

 gave 329 lbs. ; a three-frame nucleus, received from you 

 May 28, gave me 210 lbs. extracted honey. But for the 

 drouth and fires I should have had much more. 



Very truly yours, G. 0. Chasb, Bobbins, Wis. 



I am now booking orders for next sea- 

 son's delivery of Nuclei and Queens, 

 and next season's supplies, and mak- 

 ing a very liberal discount
