. The Bee-keepers' review. Bee culture. wm mm The Authoritative Manual on Apiculture The ABC and XYZ of BEE CULTURE The combined editions of this wonderful book now ag- gregate over 160,000 copies sold. This volume contains more than twice the data that are contained in any other work on apiculture; printed in four languages, proving the popularity as an authority on the subject of The ABC and X Y Z of Bee Culture will save you many times its cost by avoiding the expensive mistakes you would make without the help ot a good text-book on the subject. It is the most widely read work on apiculture in the world, and a never failing encyclopedia of information for the professional and amateur beekeeper alike From the very beginning the ABC book seems to have filled a long- felt want. The first edition, a modest one of 2,000 copies, was soon ex- hausted. Another edition was soon called for. until it became necessary to print copies instead oi 2,000: then at a time, and finally as we now do. This last edition (1913) was entirely reset from cover to covei-. and this made it possible for the revisers to make more extensive revision^ and additions than was ever before attempted. Many of the pictures were taken by the author and reviser himself while making extensive trips covering a wide range of territory. A vast amount of valuable data lias bo'ii gathered in this way, and incorporated into the ABC and X Y Z of Bee Culture. The new power-driven extractors are amply illustrated and described; the subject of diseases of bees is given special prominence; laws relating to bees are foi- the first time given full treatment in the American edition. No other book treats of this very important subject. Honey, sugar, nectar and glucose, wiitten by a United States government chemist, are care- fully defined in accordance with our new pure-food laws. There is scarcely a practical device known to beekeepers anywhere but that is describeil in these books. B
