Hand's 

 Handsome 

 Hustlers — 



are a superior, honey-gathering 

 strain of hardy, northern-bred, straight 

 three-banded ItaUans — the resuh of 

 years of careful selection and judicious 

 breeding with a view of establishing 

 fixed characteristics along chosen lines. 

 Our queens are not only large, vigorous, 

 handsome, and prolific, but by reason 

 of a judicious system of line breeding 

 they have the power unerringly to 

 transmit inherent tendencies of a high- 

 ly desirable nature, such as hardiness, 

 gentleness, and industry, as well as 

 uniformity of marking, which makes 

 them especially valuable as breeders.

 ed, red-clover stock (no other race bred in my 

 apiaries), and the cells are built in strong col- 

 onies well supplied with young bees.

and bees — an Improved superior strain of 

 Italians is what QUIRIN RAISES. All yards 

 winter on summer stands with practically no 

 loss. Our stock is hardy, and will ward off 

 brood diseases. 



In the spring of 1899 we sent fifty nuclei to 

 J. D. Nixon, Lafarge, Wis., and on July 20th 

 (same year) he wrote us, saying they did just 

 splendid, as at that writing they had already 

 filled their supers, and that he would have to 

 extract them. We have flies of testimonials 

 similar to the above.
