When a Thing Needs Doing 



NO iV is the time to do it. How about those worthless 

 queens? Will you tolerate them for another season, 

 when the best of stock can be obtained so readily? 

 Laws' bees and queens are bringing the best of reports. 

 I could fill many pages of testimonials, but give you 

 only one. Mr. T. P. Robinson, of Bartlett. Texas, says: 



"Dear Sir. —The car of bees shipped June 20th are 

 now all safely landed, and I have overhauled the entire 

 lot. The bees are from 25 to 40 per cent better than 

 contract, and you ought to hear my wife's exclamations 

 of delight at seeing those fine yellow bees so quietly 

 nestle between the combs at the very approach of 

 smoke. I can certainly recommend you. . ."

Mr. V/aiter S. Poudor, Indianapolis, Ind., June 30, 

 1906, wriles: "Friend T., queen arrived to day in good 

 condition. I consider her a very choice specimen of 

 the Caucasian."' ^ 



Mr Frank G. Odell, Lincoln, Neb., writes: ' The yel- 

 low Caucasian queen you sent us is an unusually fine 

 queen and very prolific. We are very much pleased 

 with her."
