"$I00 Offered for a Carniolan Queen" 



We will pay the above sum to any queen-breeder or 

 bee-keeper who can furnish us with a breeding Carnio- 

 lan queen that is not over one year old, and can prove 

 that she is in ho way related to our strain of Carnio- 

 lans. This queen must be in color a light bronze, large 

 and prolific; her bees very gentle, and every one to have 

 silver-gray bands. Our breeding Camiolans are as 

 described above, and we are willing to pay a good price 

 for a queen that will produce stock in every way equal 

 to our own, and not in any way related.

Finest Italian Queens >^ >^ 



ALL SEASON I will offer choice Clover Queens and Nuclei, bred from a strictly three-band strain of bees,
