"Forty Years Among the Bees" 



What Some Say of "Forty Years" 



The more I read the more I am convinced it is 

 one of the mest practical books ever written. There 

 are 101 -yes, 1001— little kip.ks, little tricks of the 

 trade, little ideas, and big ones too, which, while 

 they may be old to some of the veterans, I am of the 

 opinion will prove to be new and useful to the ma- 

 jority of them. The doctor has crowded into it his 

 ripest experience; and not only that, he has drawn 

 from the ideas of others so that we have the very 

 latest and best in the way of practical information 

 from one who has actually spent over 'forty years 

 among the hees." — Gleanings in Bee Culture. 



In this the author goes briefly, but concisely, 

 over his forty years of bee-keeping, for he has really 

 kept bees for over forty years. Not only this, but 

 he gives us a very delightfully written biographical 

 sketch of his boyhod in Pennsylvania; his heroic 

 struggles in securing an education, in which he 

 boarded himself, cutting his weekly expense for 

 board down to only thirty-five cents a week, which 

 so affected his health that he has never fully 

 recovered from it. I found this account of his early 

 life so interesting that I read it aloud to the whole 

 family. Most vividly did it recall my own boyhood 

 days, in which I roamed the forest as free as the 

 wild things in whose lives 1 became so interested. 

 . . . I feel warranted in saying that it is the 

 masterpiece of the author's over forty years among 

 the hees.— Bee-keepers' Revieiv.
