e^THAGARD'S ITALIAN QUEENS 



BRED FOR QUALITY 



My three-banded queens are bred from imported stock; they are hardy, prolific, dis- 

 ease-resisting and honey producers. A good queen is the life of any colony; head your 

 colony with some of our queens, place our queens against any queens you may obtain 

 anywhere, and note the results. I do not breed for quantity, but breed for quality. My 

 queens have proven this to thousands of beekeepers that have tried them. Book your 

 order now for July to October delivery. 



Safe arrival, pure mating, and perfect satis- 

 faction guaranteed. Circular free.
