Excerpt from Producing, Preparing, Exhibiting, and Judging Bee Produce: Illustrated
During the past thirty years the exhibiting of honey, wax, and their products has gradually increased, until at the present time it forms no inconsiderable part of the work of the bee-keeper. Although of such importance, it is a curious fact that up to the present no book has been written dealing with this branch of apiculture, consequently the requirements and methods pursued for the arrangement of shows and the preparation of exhibits for the show bench have only been obtainable by the practical experience of those interested. This of course has meant a great deal of ex pense and fruitless labour on the part of the exhibitor, for in the initial stage he was, as it were, groping in the dark.
