Excerpt from Bees and How to Keep Them
Honey has a claim to be regularly use-d in every home both on account of its sweetness, which is delicately flavoured according to the different kinds of flowers from which it is gathered and also because of its high food value, it being a concentrated and easily assimilated heat and energy-producing food. It also readily takes the place of sugar in cooking, preserving fruits, etc.
Throughout Canada there is an increasing number of people who are making beekeeping their principal business and there are thousands who find it an auxiliary pursuit that yields no mean profit and that combines a healthy outdoor occupation in pleasant weather with the fascinating study of an insect whose marvellous habits are a subject of absorbing interest to the nature lover.
