Better tHan an Island 



This place is just as good as an island for breeding 

 queens, for there are no other bees within five 

 miles, and so pure mating is guaranteed. It is better 

 than an island when you order queens, for the fastest 

 trains stop here, and hence queens are not away from 

 the colony long enough to impair their usefulness. 

 Safe introduction is guaranteed if you follow my spe- 

 cial directions. ^ ■>iF '^ 1 consider the Banat Cau- 

 casian bees the best and gentlest in the world. Banat 

 Caucasian bees are bred here; other races in out- 

 yards. Queen-breeders should secure their breeding- 

 queens from this pure stock. Order now. Banat 

 Caucasian queen, $3.00. Caucasian queen, $1.50. 

 Golden Italian, 75c. Tested queens, one year old, 

 double these prices.

THE HOE ^ 

 RAZOR. 



We know any number of men who have laid 

 aside other safety razors after having once used 

 the "Hoe." Why 'f Because it is the simplest 

 razor to put together; because the blades can be 

 stropped like the old-ftishioned razor; because 

 it costs less than any other reliable safety razor. 



Unlike all other safety razors the Hoe requires 

 no adjusting of blades. There are no troulile- 

 some springs, hinges, or screws to arrange. You 

 couldn't put a blade in the Hoe wrony if you 

 tried to. The handle of the Hoe has the lentrth 

 necessary to be easily grasped and enable one to 

 hold it at the proper angle in all positions. In 

 the Christy comb-tiuard the teeth of the guard 

 point toward the blade. It is so designed as 

 to leave the edge of the blade free with a clear 

 space for lather to pass through upon the top of 

 the blade, .iust like (and with all the advantages 

 of) an ordinary razor, without its disadvantages. 



The Christy Hoe, including six blades, $1..50.
