Yellow from Tip to Tip ! 



My Adel bees and queens are very handsome. Ev- 

 ery queen a breeder, and guaranteed to produce 

 golden queens and beautiful bees; non-swarmers, 

 very gentle, and hustlers for honey. Each queen, 

 $1.00. Catalog ready. H. ALLEY, Wenham. Mass. 



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. ^ ^ >f 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,
