 favorite Italians the coming season. 

 Queens from this strain can not be sur- 

 passed, and are the kind that get bees 

 that make supers hard to lift. 



Twenty - one years a commercial 

 queen - breeder, and an advertiser in 

 this journal, he knows what a good 

 queen is, and can prove it to you, 



I wish you could see some of the splendid 

 letters coming to my desk now almost dally. 

 Laws queens are in every State in the Union, 

 and the careful breeding of these queens has 

 put many dollars in the pockets of his custo- 

 mers, as I have abundant evidence to show. 

 I am now supplying some queens in April, 

 and shall have plenty in May, and my prices 

 are low. in keeping with quality of my stock.
