Description

A cyclopedia of everything pertaining to the care of the honey-bee: bees, hives, honey, implements, honey-plants, etc. Facts gleaned from the experience of thousands of bee-keepers, and afterward verified in our apiary. (Subtitle of the 1910 edition.)

Excerpt

Perhaps nothing is more aggravating in bee culture than to have all our bees on a sudden abscond for parts unknown, without so much as stopping to give us a parting word of farewell, or a single token of recognition of the debt they owe us, in the shape of gratitude for our past kindnesses in providing them with a home, shelter, etc.
