Queens That Will Please 



Over 20 Years of Careful Selecting and Breeding 



They are bred from Imported stock, the very best for honey gather- 

 ing and gentleness. They are not given to swarming and are highly 

 resistant to diseases. Give me your order, and after you have given 

 my queens a fair trial, if you are not satisfied in every way that they 

 are as good as any you have ever used, just return them and I will 

 send you queens to take their place or return your money with any 

 postage you have paid out on returning the queens.
