Read What They Say About Our Bees 



Ij. C. and Oscar Maypiix, Hamburg, La. 



I must say that your package bees and 

 way of doing business liave proveii success- 

 ful. The several hundred packages I 

 bought and sold from you without a single 

 complaint; am sending you more orders. —

 20, 1921. 



L. C. and Oscar Mayeux, Hamburg, La. 



Gentlemen : — The .50 three-pound pack- 

 ages on frame honey came through in ex- 

 cellent shape. I find them away ahead of 

 combless packages. I received 50 combless 

 jiackages same day with yours, and yours 

 are doing much better. I regret very much 

 that I did not order the hundred from you.

Dear Sirs: — Your record will show that 

 yoii have shipped me one two-pound pack- 

 age bees with queen on frame brood and 

 honey last May, and they prove a good buy; 

 they paid for themselves, and made a very 

 nice surplus. The frame brood was a good 

 one and made it very easy to transfer to 

 hive.- — O. H. Mills, Forsyth, Montana, Mav,
