1920 QUEENS 



1920 



A colony of bees with a poor (|ueen i.>^ wortli tlir hive and ti.xtures. A colony of bees with 

 a good queen has no limit in value, the honey flow alone being the determininff factor. 

 I am u.sing my thirty-five years of beekeeping and queon-rearing experience to produce the 

 best that can be produced, and sell at a figf.rc that will sustain the high quality of my queens. 



PRICES 



One, $2; three, $5.50; six, $10; twelve, $19. All amounts over one dozen, $1.50 each. 

 1 sell only untested queens and make a specialty of this line. I select no queens, but try 

 to have them all so good that there is little chance for selection. 1920 circular now ready. 



Season opens April first.
