Bees and Queens for 1922 



Is there a great difference among bees 

 and queens? Mr. Beekeeper, with bees 

 and queens a small difference counts high. 

 A small per cent better laying queen will 

 ^^reatly increase the field force; this will 

 insure a larger honey yield per colony. A 

 small per cent better worker will aid 

 wonderfully. A small per cent more gen- 

 tleness will greatly reduce the stings; 

 this increases the efficiency and speed of 

 liandling, not counting the pleasure. A 

 small per cent of better marking adds 

 wonderfully to the beauty of the colony. 



By developing the small quantities of my 

 bees and queens I have attained marked 

 success in producing better queens and 

 bees. My aim is to produce bees and 

 queens that will meet the high standard 

 required by beekeepers. Let me book 

 your order for 1922. One-fourth the full 

 amount will insure your getting bees nnd 

 queens when you want them most roxt 

 spring. Perfect satisfaction, safe deliv- 

 ery, and pure mating guaranteed. Pure 

 Italian bees and Three-band Italian 

 queens of the better kind.
