Order Your 

 Queens Now 



Pay two weeks before shipment. Just 

 think of it! Only one dollar for one of 

 my bright three-banded Northern-bred Ital- 

 ian queens. After nineteen years of select 

 breeding, I have produced a strain of bees 

 that get the honey and stand the northern 

 winter. Last year every order was filled 

 by return mail; expect to do the same this 

 year. 



This is the kind of letters I receive daily: 

 "Dear Mr. Major: 

 "How early in spring could you fill an 

 order for one dozen Italian queens? My 

 experience and observation with your 

 strain of Italians have shown them to 

 be extremely gentle, sui)erior as work- 

 ers and unexcelled in the beautifully 

 white and even capping of the honey, 

 "Yours very truly, 



"Orel L. Hershiser." 

 Mr. Hershiser is one of our State inspec- 

 tors and has been a beekeeper almost all 

 his life; also inventor of the Hershiser 

 wax press. "Does he know good bees when 

 he sees them?" "Does a duck swim?" I 

 guarantee pure mating, safe arrival, free 

 from disease and health certificate fur- 

 nished with each shipment. 

 Select untested, from 1 to 100, $1.00 each. 

 Select tested, $1.50 each. Extra-select 

 breeders, S5.00 each. All candy in queen- 

 mailing cages mixed to government regu- 

 lations. All orders greatly appreciated and 

 acknowledged the same day received.
