QUEENS 



of 



Moore's Strain of Italians 



Produce workers that fill the supers, and are 

 not inclined to swarm. They have won a 

 world-wide reputation for honey-gathering, 

 hardiness, gentleness, etc. 



Mr. W. Z. Hutchinson, editor of the Bee- 

 Keepers' Review, Flint, Mich., says: "As 

 workers. I have never seen them equaled. . 

 They seem possessed of a steady, quiet 

 determination that enables them to lay up 

 surplus ahead of others. Easier bees to 

 handle I have never seen." 



My queeens'are all bred from my best 

 long-tongued;three-banded red-clover stock 

 (no other race bred in my apiaries), and the 

 cells are built in strong colonies well sup- 

 plied with young bees.

Standard Breed 



Queens from Our Superior Golden Stock 



Unttstud. I for Si.oo; 6. SS-oo: u. So.oo. None 

 superior to our queens, and but few equals. 



Mr. F. Danzenbaker, the inventor of the 

 2oth Century Smoker, wrote us March 5. 1008. 

 that he has a good opinion of our strain of 

 Italian bees: 



- If they are as grood as the one Mr. L. L. Brock- 

 well, of Edlow. Va.. sent me to exhibit at James- 

 town Exposition. I didnl gret her until Sept. 

 IStth, on a single frame in an obser\'atory hive. 

 Her bees stored and capped y lbs. of honey in 

 ready-built combs of 4x6 sections in two weeks 

 or y working- days, as 5 days of that time were 

 rainy or too cool for bees to fly. If it had been 

 a 10-frame colony they surely would have gath- 

 ered (iO lbs. or more. I offered Mr. Brockwell $10 

 and 4 young queens in May. but he declined. I 

 then asked him if he would let me have her for 

 $2o: he said no. I would have given that for her 

 to breed from. I then asked if he would sell her 

 for 850. He said no. but that I could have eggs 

 from her in May. So you see what we both 

 think of her for a breeder. 



Very truly. F. Danzexbaker.
