Forehand's Queens 



They Satisfy— Why? 



Because of 28 years of exi^erimental work, with botli queen-breeding 

 and honey-production. With breeding and selecting of imported queens, 

 I have reached a standard which is ideal. Queens as good, but none 

 BETTEE. Why experiment? Take advantage of the life experience of 

 my breeders.

 whether you desire queens or advice. Let us help you with your bee 

 problems. All questions are cheerfully answered.

QUEENS AND BEES 



1 Mr. Beekeeper, we are establishing one of the most modern queen-rearing outfits in | 



1 the U. S. A. If you want good quality, quick service, prompt attention, and perfect j 



g satisfaction, don't fail to place your orders with us on time as we fill orders in | 



B rotation. Our queens are bred by experienced queen-breeders; they are reared by | 



B the latest and most approved method and from the very best honey-gathering strain | 



g of Italians obtainable. Our exjierience from boyhood up under our father (who had | 



M fifty years of experience with bees) thus enables us to produce queens as good as can | 



m be produced, but none better, and we sell at figures that will sustain the high | 



g quality of our queens. Our bees are hardy, gentle, prolific, disease-resistant and j 



g honey-gatherers. Each and every queen that leaves our yard is inspected by us per- | 



I sonally and all inferior ones are killed. |
