Vf. H. Laws, the Quccn-brcedcr, 



wishes to say that he has a number of extra fine 

 BREEDING QUEENS of the Leather or Red-clover 

 Stock that is the equal if not superior to any thing 

 ever offered, and probably the best he has ever owned. To the man who keeps bees for profit, for ease in han- 

 dling, and returns in honey, these queens are of untold value, to be used in requeening your cross and undesirable 

 stock. Several of my customers write that the queens received from me the past season were the only ones 

 that gave any surplus in their yards. I also breed the Golden Italians, Holy-Lands, and Carniolans, in separate 

 yards. Price of queens, each, $1.00; six for $5.00. Those breeding queens. $10.00 each. Safe arrival and satis- 

 faction guaranteed. A car of bees offered again this season. W. H. LAWS, Beeville, Bee County, Texas. 



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. ^ '^ ^ I 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.
