The New Edition of the A. B. C. and X. Y. Z. of Bee Culture

A large number of the old articles have been rewritten. Many new articles that never 

 appeared before in any former edition occur in this one. 



THE CHEMISTY OF HONEY 



A. Hugh Bryan, formerly connected with the Bureau of Chemistry, Washington, D. C, and 

 who at the time made a speciality of honey, has written the articles dealing with the chemistry of 

 honey, glucose, invert sugar, nectars, adulterations, etc. He has also written a special article for 

 the benefit of chemists, on how to analyze honey. 



Since the introduction of artificial invert sugars, new methods have to be employed; and 

 these are set forth in this new edition so that any chemist will be able to use the very latest infor- 

 mation that has been available to the Bureau of Chemistry, Washington, D. C.

 and an entomologist. Some new species have been added, and in other cases the descriptions have 

 made more complete.
