Bees Scooped ! 



1 have at last succeeded in buying all the bee'^ 

 within 2% miles of my home apiary, except five 

 colonies, 'and these I have Italianized and have 

 permission to control their drones. This prac- 

 tically gives me a clear iielii for breeding pure 

 Italian queens. I have had over twenty year's 

 expor ence in breeding and experimenting with 

 Italian queens and bees, and 1 now breed " for 

 business" from my own importations and Doo- 

 little's " Best." Poor stock is costly as a gift. 



One colony of Italians in single story, S-frame, 

 D. I hive, |6 00; 5 colonies, $27.. 'iO ; 10 colonies. 

 50.00; one frame nucleus, Jl.'^O; two frame, 

 1.75. Select the queen wanted and add price to 

 the above. During March and April, one tested 

 11-11 2.00. Select tested queen. $3 00. After 

 May 1st, one tested queen, $1 50; 3 for $4.00; 6 

 for'$7 50 ; select tested, $2 .50. Untested queens 

 as early as the season will permit of their being 

 reared, one for $1 00 ; 3 for $2.25 ; 6 for $4 00 ; 12 

 for $6 75. I have over tOO tested queens reared 

 last summer and fall thatwill be taken from full 

 colonies to fill extra early orders. 



Contracts for hybrid and black bees in quan- 

 tities solicited, and if desired will furnish them 

 with tested or untested Italian queens f)n reason- 

 able terms.
