QUEENS OF QUALITY 



The editor of The Beekeepers' Keview and his sons have 1100 colonies of bees worked for extracted 

 honey. With all those bees working' with equal advantage, all having the same care and attention, they have 

 an opportunity unexcelled to ascertain without a reasonable doubt colonies desirable as breeder.s from a 

 honey-producer's standpoint. Likely, never in the history of beekeeping was there a better opportunity to 

 test out the honey-getting strain of bees than this. Think of it, 1100 colonies with equal show, and a dozen 

 of those colonies storing 250 to 275 pounds of surplus honey this last poor season (with us), while the 

 average of the entire 1100 being not more than 40 pounds per colony. We have sent two of our best 

 breeding queens (their colonies producing 275 pounds surplus each, during the season of 1915) to John 

 M. Davis, and two to Ben C. Davis, both of Spring Hill, Tenn., and they will breed queens for the Review 

 during the season of 1916 from those four superior honey-gathering breeding queens. Those young queens 

 will be mated with their thoroughbred drones. Our stock is of the three-tanded strain of Italians ; also that 

 of John M. Davis; while Ben C. Davis breeds that disease-resisting strain of goldens that is becoming so 

 popular. 



By this time you are likely thinking that your strain of bees may be improved some by the addition of 

 this superior strain of Review q-ueens, and how you can secure one or more of those superior honey-gather- 

 ing queens as a breeder. We will tell you. They will be sold to none except Review svbscrilcrs.' If you 

 are a paid-in-advance subscriber to the Review for 1916, we will mail you one of the daughters of those 

 famous queens in June for a dollar. If not a subscriber to the Review for 1916, send $1.75 for a year's 

 subscription to the Review, and one of those famous queens. These queens are well worth two dollars" each 

 compared to the price usually charged for ordinary queens, but we are not trying to make money out of this 

 proposition, only_ we are anxious to have every subscriber of Gleanings a subscriber to the Review, and 

 we are taking this way to accomplish the object. A few of the very first orders for queens that we receive 

 can be mailed in May, but the majority will not be mailed until June. Orders tilled in rotation. Have your 

 order booked early and avoid disappointment. Address with remittance

Constipation-Causes and Relief 



Constipation causes much unnecessary discomfort — discomfort easy to relieve by slight 

 changes in daily habits. This Dr. J. H. Kellogg proves in his latest book—' ' Colon Hygiene ' ' 

 — in which he tells you of the common causes of constipation and how they may be removed 

 by a little careful attention to daily habits in your home and wholly without drugs. Dr. 

 Kellogg speaks with authority because, for nearly forty years, he has been Superintendent 

 of the Battle Creek Sanitarium — an institution which, through its remarkable achievements 

 in relief of human suffering, has earned a reputation as one of the greatest scientific medical 

 institutions in the world. Here Dr. Kellogg has had opportunity to observe, treat, and 

 prescribe for thousands of cases of indigestion, constipation, and the more s'jrious disorders 

 to which they often lead. Thus, Dr. Kellogg writes from the standpoint of extensive 

 experience — he deals with facts, not theory. What Dr. Kellogg recommends you can de- 

 pend upon. His book contains nearly 400 pages, with many illustrations, diet tables, and full 

 instructions for exercise, rest, and sleep. Price of the book only $2 postpaid in the U. S.
