BEES 



If you have a garden, or raise fruit, you ought to' 

 keep bees to secure the best results in blossom fer- 

 tilization. Bee keeping is a very interesting pur- 

 suit, and profitable as well. 



It is not difficult, and with careful handling my 

 strain of Italian bees seldom sting. Visitors are 

 always welcome at my home apiary, Glen Cove, L. I. 



A strong colony of Italian bees, with a tested Ital- 

 ian Queen, in a chaff hive, complete ready to store 

 honey, is $11.00. 50 to 60 pounds of surplus honey 

 can be obtained from a colony each season. Would 

 be pleased to quote you on a small apiary. 



Have made bee keeping my business for 25 years, and can 

 give you practical advice as to your location and management.

Why Take a Chance With Your 



Eggs or Chicks? 



Don't blame your poor hatches to the parent stock, or the eggs, be- 

 cause lack of moisture, irregular heat, and cheap incubators are 

 responsible for the death of millions of chicks in the shell every year. 



The International Self- 

 Humidifying Incubator 



is absolutely automatic in every function, unvariable temperature, 

 positive moisture from the moment of starting the hatch until necessary 

 to properly dry the newly hatched unit of future profit, so thoroughly 

 safe-guarding its entrance into poultrydom as to guarantee its livability. 



Your brooder losses are not always the fault of the chicks. 

 Ultimate success depends on the proper mothering of chicks. 



The International Sanitary Hover 



is the only one positively supplying the highest temperature at the outer edge. Therefore, no loss 

 by crowding to the centre and every chick has a chance under this hover. Entire metal con- 

 struction. Portable and adjustable to all conditions. Eliminates expansive brooder house 

 equipment. 



Our best efforts are centered in the production of Day-Old-Chicks and Hatching Eggs from 

 matured stock. No pullet eggs are used except for table purposes. All orders for incubators. 

 Hovers, Day Old Chicks or Hatching Eggs will positively be filled within 24 hours 

 after receipt.
