as Red-clover Workers. 



L. C. Medkiff, Salem, N. J., says: "I bought an un- 

 tested queen of you last year, and her bees have filled 

 three comb-honey supers, and did not swarm, while 

 thirteen out of the fifteen other colonies did not get 

 more than half that amount. 



"I have queens from six different breeders, and I class 

 yours ICO per cent above them all. Your bees worked 

 very strong on the first crop of red clover. I know 

 they were yours, because I floured them with a dredge- 

 box and watched the hive. They also worked strong on 

 the second crop of red-clover and lima-bean blossoms." 



Untested queens, 75c each; six, $4 00; dozen, $7 50. 



Select untested, $1.00 €ach; six, $5.00; dozen, $9.00.
