Synopsis
Excerpt from The ABC of Bee Culture The following, descriptive of the picture of our apiary a few leaves back, is extracted from the November gleanings. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in our edition. We do, however, repair the vast majority of imperfections successfully; any imperfections that remain are intentionally left to preserve the state of such historical works., Excerpt from The ABC of Bee Culture In preparing this work I have been much indebted to the books of Langstroth, Quinby, Prof. Cook, King, and some others, as well as to all the Bee-Journals; but, more than to all these, have I been indebted to the thousands of friends scattered far and wide, who have so kindly furnished the fullest particulars in regard to all the new improvements, as they have come up, in our beloved branch of rural industry. Those who questioned me so much, a few years ago are now repaying by giving me such long kind letters in answer to any inquiry I may happen to make, that I often feel ashamed to think what meager answers I have been obliged to give them under similar circumstances. A great part of this A B C book is really the work of the people, and the task that devolves on me is to collect, condense, verify, and utilize, what has been scattered through thousands of letters, for years past. My own apiary has been greatly devoted to carefully testing each new device, invention, or process, as it came up; the task has been a very pleasant one; and if the perusal of the following pages affords you as much pleasure, I shall feel amply repaid. It is more than 14 years since the first edition of this work was printed. It has passed the experimental stage, and thousands of A B C scholars have reported success, simply from following the instructions given in the body of the work. This edition numbers the 52d thousand; and so great has been the call for it that we have felt warranted in giving it frequent revisions. The present edition is not only enlarged, and illustrated with many new and beautiful engravings, but it has received a careful and most thorough revision. In consequence of overwork and ill health, this work, for the past few years, has devolved upon my son, Ernest R., who is now assistant editor of Gleanings in Bee Culture. Some subjects he has re-written, and to others he has made additions and alterations as the spirit of advancement in apiculture seemed to demand, all of which was subject to my approval. As lie has made so many additions, it may be interesting to the reader to know what subjects were written by him and what by myself. The new subjects, and some of the old ones that he has almost entirely, and in most cases entirely re-written, are as follows: Chapman Honey-plant; Comb Foundation; Comb Honey; Contraction; Fairs; Feeding and Feeders; Fixed Frames; Foul Brood; Frames, How to Manipulate; Hive-making; Introducing Queens; Moving Bees; Record-keeping of Hives; Reversing; Smokers; Spacing Frames; Veils; Wintering. The subjects to which he has made large additions are these: Alighting-boards; Alsike; Apiary; Basswood; Buying Bees; Candy for Bees; Clover; Drones; Extracted Honey; Extractors; Out-apiaries; Queens; Queen-rearing; Robbing; Stings; Swarming; Transferring; Wax. The remaining subjects were originally written by myself, and have been retained essentially as they appeared in the first edition of 1877. Doolittle's comments in back part of the work have been entirely revised for this last edition. The 37th and 52d thousandth edition was carefully read and revised by Dr. C. C. Miller, of Marengo, Ill., an extensive bee-keeper, and a proof reader besides. The subject of Honey-plants, Out-apiaries, and the biographical sketches in the latter portion of the work, are from his pen.
