Being new, it is fully up with the times on every conceivable subject that interests the apiarist. It is not only instructive, but intensely interesting.
It comprises a full delineation of the anatomy and physiology of the Honey-Bee, illustrated with costly wood engravings, full descriptions of honey-producing plants, trees and shrubs, &c., splendidly illustrated—and last, though not least, detailed instructions for the successful accomplishment of all the various manipulations necessary in the apiary.
This work is a masterly production, and one that no bee-keeper, however limited his means, can afford to do without.
It is printed in the best style of the art, on fine book paper, and superbly illustrated throughout. Price, bound in cloth, $1.25, postpaid; in paper binding, $1.00, postpaid.
