Put a good queen in each colony now, when good 

 queens can be had promptly at low prices. The wi:c 

 beekeeper does not buy queens in spring when Ihey 

 are scarce, high in price, delivery uncertain. He 

 buys now and insures disease resistance, safe win- 

 tering, and a good honey crop. Our Italian queens 

 give these three qualities and are now at their best;
