WIND ELECTRICITY. 



After my statement in the March number had 

 gone out, I realized it didn't cover the ground very 

 well. Since that date we have had wind, so that 

 during March the engine was hardly used at all. 

 In fact, we run the auto on longer trips than he- 

 fore, light the premises, run an electric fireless 

 cooker and I have a warming pad to warm my 

 feet nights — and the wind (often cold north 

 winds) does it all nicely. The engine only gives 16 

 amperes steadily, while the windmills often give 

 25, and sometimes even 30 for a brief interval 

 This is all right for heating and cooking, and the 

 batteries in that case are used little or not at all.

X -r:i.j-jx^xi 1 v^ speak for themselves \^^-^ -'-^^-^■^^^ 



Over thirty-five years as conniicrcial queen-breeder and advertiser in this journal have 

 brought orders from thousands of Gleanings readers. If there is a dissatisfied customer I do 

 no*- know it. I have many testimonials that make me glad. One firm bought over 5000 

 queens of me, and writes that my "queens and business methods are very satisfactory." 

 Another writes, "Your queens are all good queens. Our individual crop of honey was 

 105,000 pounds season 1921; Laws' queens did it." 



PRICES: Untested, each, $1.25; 12 for $12. Tested, each, $1.50; 12 for $15. Breeding 

 queens, none better if as good, each, by mail, $5; or with a 3-franie nucleus of her own bees 

 by express, $10. This nucleus, if ordered early, should gather honey enough to pay all costs. 

 Write for prices quantity lots. I am prepared to furnish in large lots; also bees in three- 

 frame nuclei. No disease; entire satisfaction. Address
