Présentation de l'éditeur

Excerpt from Scientific Queen-Rearing, as Practically Applied: Being a Method by Which the Best of Queen-Bees Are Reared in Perfect Accord With Nature's Ways

As all bee-keepers of to-day are aware, I have given all of my best thoughts, on the subject which the desired book would cover, free to the world through our many bee papers, so, had I complied with the request made, the mat ter in the book would have been mainly that which I had written before and owing to this self-same cause, the reader will perhaps find some fault with the present work.
