iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiyiy 



QUEENS Package Bees Queens 



Did you read Prof. H. F. "Wilson's write-up in the March issue of Gleanings, 

 in regard to the packages of bees he received from me last year? Notice he 

 said some of those 



PACKAGES RECEIVED IN MAY GAVE 150 LBS. OF HONEY 



That speaks for the quality of our queens. The 2-pound packages with Queens 

 shipped to Mr. David Running (then President of the National Beekeepers' A.s- 

 sociation) in 1917, three years ago, gave him 140 pounds that season. Have 

 booked ail I can guarantee shipping on time for April, but send for Free Cir- 

 cular for later shipping which states our guarantee, also gives prices on bees 

 by parcel post, Nuclei, etc. 



THREE-BANDED AND GOLDEN QUEENS. 



Have secured the best queen men obtainable and we are prepared to turn out 



6,000 queens per month. They do nothing but rear the best of queens; careful 



inspection before shipping. Have an entirely separate ci>ew for shipping bees, 



etc. Twenty years a beekeeper.
