One would naturally suppose that its author, a sci- 

 entific man—a trained entomologist, and one who 

 is constantly associated with some of the best sci- 

 entists of the Government— would turn out a book 

 that would be so technically scientific that it 

 would be beyond the reach of the average bee- 

 keeper. This is not the case. While it is scien- 

 tific, it is couched in such language and style 

 that the average reader can easily understand it. 

 But when we say it is scientific, we might, with- 

 out further qualification, convey the impression 

 that it is not also practical. As a matter of fact, 

 the book is intensely so, because Dr. Phillips has 

 traveled all over the United States, mingling with 

 the best beemen in the country, and he has had, 

 during several years back, one of the best bee- 

 keepers in the country, Mr. George F. Demuth, 

 as his first assistant.
