When a Thing Needs Doing 



NO K 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. . ."

as Red-clover Workers. 



Wm. S. Slocum, Newport. R. I., writes: "My friend, 

 W. O. Sweet, West Mansfield, Mass., asked me about 

 two years ago where he could get good queens, and I 

 referred him to you. To-day he called on me and 

 said he noticed the colonies with your queens were 

 storing much faster than others. He went immedi- 

 ately to his red-clover field, and saw bees working 

 there freely."
