Excerpt from Advanced Bee-Culture, Its Methods and ManagementDuring the last four or five years I have been having quite a bit of experience in establishing out-apiaries, and in the production of honey upon a somewhat extensive scale. I have also visited a number of prominent bee-keepers, and photographed and described the methods whereby they made money.Of course, all of this has appeared in the Review and in Gleanings, but in a more or less scattered fashion, and, for a year or more, I have had in mind the gathering together of this matter, in consecutive order, in a new edition of Advanced Bee Culture. There are several reasons why I have been unable to accomplish this, chief of which has been the lack of health and strength to do the work.A few months ago a correspondence over the matter sprang up between Mr. E. R. Root and myself, with the result that, under my guidance and sanction, he revised the book, adding the new matter. All of the new matter is something that I have written, but the work of fitting in with the old, so as to make a smooth, continuous story, is that of my friend Root.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
