Über diesen Titel

Reseña del editor:

This antique text contains a familiar account of the habits of bees and the most improved methods of management, with full directions, adapted for the cottager, farmer, or scientific apiarian. The aim of this volume is to give explicit and detailed directions on most subjects connected with the hiving and removing of bees; and, also, to show how, by judicious application of the ''depriving'' system, the productive powers of the bees may be enormously increased. The chapters of this book include: The Inhabitants of the Hive, The Queen, The Drone, The Worker Bee, Eggs of Bees, Increase of Bees, Swarming, Nutt's Collateral Hive, Neighbour's Improved Single Box Hive, Straw, Glass, Frame, Improved Comb Bar, Compound Bar and Frame, Cover, Taylor's Improved Cottage Hive, Eight Bar Straw, Woodbury, etcetera. This text was originally published in 1865, and is proudly republished now complete with a new introduction on bee-keeping.

Reseña del editor:

Originally published in 1865, this handy book contains a full and detailed guide to the keeping and management of bees. Much of the information will still be of use today and will appeal to those with an interest in the history of the subject. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original artwork and text.
