Excerpt from Division of Biology and Horticulture: T. W. Kirk, F. L. S., Government Biologist, Chief of Divisions, Bulletin No, 5, Bee Culture, I. The Use of Comb-Foundation, II. Ripening Extrcated Honey, III. Foul Brood, IV. The Large Bee-Moth, V. Apiculture in Relation to AgricultureSo far as I have vet been among our beekeepers, I have found, with few exceptions, almost a total absence of knowledge con cerning the full economic value of comb-foundation. Its use at the present time is chie¿y confined to providing guide-combs, which consist of narrow strips fastened along the under-sides of the top bars of the movable frames of the hive, to insure the bees building their combs within the frames. The bees are thus left free to construct nearly the whole of their combs, of whatever kind they may choose, worker or drone, or, as is usual, some of both.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
