THE A B G OFJEE CULTURE. 



1899 Edition The only Cyclopedia on Bees. 



2000 Copies sold in Eight Weeks 



If there is any book on bee-keeping of which bee-keepers hare reason to be 

 proud, it is Root's A B (" of Bee I'ulture. I aui reminded of this by the receipt 

 of a copy of the latest edition, which is jus* out. There is probably no firm iu 

 the whole wide world posses.sing tte facilities and advantages of 'Ihe A. I. Root 

 Co. for getting out a work of this kind. It has plenty of capital and a thorough- 

 ly equipped printing office. More than this, there is an experience of more than a quarter of a century 

 in actual, practical oee-keeping and in publishing a thoroughly progressive, up to-date bee journal. 

 More than anj'one else, an editor has an opportunity for being fully informed regarding ihe actual state 

 of the industry which his journal represents. Thousands of letters from all parts of the country pass 

 under hi» eyes each year. In order that the best pc^sible advantage might be taken of the knowledge 

 thus secured. The Root Co. has been to the expense of keeping the book standing in type. As often as 

 new discoveries or changes are made a corresponding change is made in the subject matter of the A B 

 C. By this method the last edition of the book is up to date. It cannot be otherwise than that the 

 edition just out is decidedly the superior of any previous editions. When a beginner writes and asks me 

 what book he'd better buy, I unhesitatingly tdi him, "Root's A B C of Bee Culture"— and I have a book 

 of my own to sell.— /Editorial in Bee-keepers' Review, October, 1S99.

 here is one that I consider especially 

 liberal. If you are not a subscriber
