Here is what a few of those who received our Queens have to say about them: AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL Gentlemen :-Last October I purchased three queens of you for my experiments with different queens, and wish to ask you if queens of this season will be of this stock? One of the Queens is the most remarkable queen I ever owned for prolificness, which she transmits to all her daughters. Riddle, Oreg., July 4, 1912. L. W. WELLS. AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL Gentlemen:-The queen you sent me came in good condition. She was one of the best I have ever bought. I have her introduced and she is doing business as if to the manor born I want another of those beautiful queens as soon as I can possibly get it for making up my fair exhibit. Please send a fine one. Such queens certainly advertise your business. Darlington, Wis., July 31, 1912. C. R. BRIDGMAN. AMERICAN BEE JOURNAL Gentlemen :- I bought a queen of you about 35 years ago, and from her I italianized 1150 colonies of the finest beauties of unusual good qualities. I lived near Milton Center, Ohio, at the time. Yours truly, 10, 1912. J. W. Houtz. We usually begin mailing Queens in May, and continue thereafter on the plan of "first come first served."
