Bees Scooped ! 



1 have at last succeeded in huying all the bees 

 within 2J^ miles of my home apiary, except five 

 c()lonie8, and these I have Italianized atid have 

 permission to control their drones. This prac- 

 tically gives me a clear field for breeding pure 

 Italian (lueens. I have had over twenty years" 

 experience in breeding and experimenting with 

 Italian queens and bees, and 1 now breed "for 

 business" from my own importations and Doo- 

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



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

 D. r. hive, $6.00; 5 colonies, $27.. W ; lOcolories. 

 S.iO 00 ; one frame nucleus, SLi^O; two frame, 

 $1.7.5. Select the queen wanted and add price to 

 the above. During March and April, one tested 

 ■U?!i, 2.00. Select tested ( I ueen, ff3 00. After 

 May 1st, one tested queen, $1 '.(); 3 for $4.00; (i 

 for S7 50 ; select tested, $2 50. Untested queens 

 as early as the season will permit of their being 

 reared, one for $1 00 ; 8 for 12.25 ; 6 for $1 00 ; 12 

 for $6 75. I have over 100 tested queens reared 

 last summer and fall that will 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 on reason- 

 able terms.
