QUALITY-HILL-QUEENS 



"The kind you'll eventually buy" 



Reared under ideal conditions, bred for business from a strain 

 which has been a leader for half a century and hardened to northern 

 winters, Quality Hill Queens are better than most. They are strong 

 vigorous and fairly gentle. 



Every cell is started in a 10-frame colony and built in a full col- 

 ony with a laying queen and brimful of young bees. Mated in 4-frame 

 nuclei, no baby nuclei being used, and no cells being caged. Especially 

 resistant to European foulbrood. 



Orders filled in rotation until we catch up. Discount of 10 per 

 cent on all cash orders for 12 or more queens received before May 1.

The Pearce Method of Beekeeping 



Adopted at the Michigan State Prison with J. A. Pearce as Manager 

 You will be pleased to learn that I am in charge of the Michigan State bees at the Jackson 

 Prison. The State farms comprise about 3,000 acres. It is intended to keep a 1000 or more 

 colonies of bees. We have at present 130 colonies in our double 8 frame hives. They will be 

 moved into their permanent houses about October first where they will stand indefinitely winter 

 and summer as the PEARCE METHOD has been adopted by the management. Anyone wishing 

 to know what this method is should send 50 cents to J. A. Pearce, Rural No. 1, Grand Rapids^ 

 Mich, for "The Pearce Method of Beekeeping" or $1.10 to the Beekeepers' Review for the Re- 

 view one year and the book.
