the Veteran Queen-specialist 



WILL begin the season of 1911 with 

 greatly improved facilities for 

 rearing the choicest queens. . . Our 

 queens are not only large, vigorous, 

 handsome, and prolific, but by reason 

 of a judicious system of line breeding 

 they have the power to transmit inher- 

 ent tendencies of a highly desirable na- 

 ture, such as hardiness, gentleness, and 

 industry, as well as uniformity of mark- 

 ing, which makes them especially val- 

 uable as breeders. Every queen is war- 

 ranted to produce uniformly marked 

 bees of superior honey-gathering qual- 

 ities. Don't take chances. Get the 

 real thing. Warranted. .?1.00; six, $-5.00; 

 dozen, $9.00. Tested, $1.25. Breeders, 

 $5.00. Half pound of bees, no queen, 

 $1.00. Three (L) frame nucleus, no 

 queen, $8.25. No selection, therefore 

 no culls, and a square deal for all. Val- 

 uable information free for your address.

Belt Comb-honey Combination 



I have 112 colonies all in Danz. hives with the exception 

 of ten, which are in Danz. divisible hives, and these will 

 go into the regular Danz. body in the spring. The regular 

 Danz. body, with the right management, is the best com- 

 bination in the world for comb honey I let the big-hive 

 men laugh, but when we go to market, their product is no 

 competition to mine. The dealers say to them, "If yours is 

 as good as Hall's bring it in and we will take it." And it 

 is all in the form and management of the HIVE. 



St. Joseph, Mich., Sept. 26, 1908. C. L. Hall. 



You can get the same results by using the 

 Danzenbaker hive. Nothing to equal it for 

 the production of comb honey. The booklet 

 " Facts about Bees " tells all about this hive.

Write for quotations on the 



Danz. hives for your apiary.
