The Bee-Keeper's Guide; 



MANUAL OF THE APIARY, 



By A. J. COOK, 



Of Lansing, Pro/e>isor uf Entomoloy]/ in the 

 State Agricultural College of Michigan. 



330 Puiireii ; 133 Fine IlliiKtriitionn. 



This is a new edition of Prof. Cook's Manual of 

 the Apiary, enlarged and elegantly illustrated. 

 The first edition of 3,000 copies was exhausted In 

 about IS months — a sale unprecedented in the 

 annals of bee-culture. This new work has been 

 produced with great care, patient study and per- 

 sistent research. It comprises a full delineation 

 of tiie anatomy and physiology of the honey bee. 

 illustrated with many costly wood engravings — 

 the productsof the Honey Bee ; theracesot bees; 

 full desccriptions of honey-produciog plants.trees, 

 shrubs, etc..aplcndi.ily illustrated— and last.though 

 not least, detailed instructions for the various 

 manipulations necessary in the apiary. 



This work is a masterly production, and one that 

 no bee-keeper, however limited his means, can 

 afford to do without. It is fully "up with the times*' 

 on every conceivable subject thai can interest the 

 apiarist. It is not only instructive, but intensely 

 iiitcreslmg and thoroughly practical. 



Bead the Jollowiag opiniwis of the Book; 



All agree that it is the work of a master and of 

 real value.— i.'4r>(cu(Utre, Paris. 



1 think Coo '('8 Manual is the best of our Ameri- 

 can works.— L,E\vis T. COLDV. 



It appears to have cut the ground from under 

 future book-makers.— BriU.s/t Bee Journal. 



Prof. Cook's valuable Manual has been mv con- 

 stant guule in my operations and successful man- 

 agement of the apiary.— J. P. WEST. 



I have derived more practical knowledge from 

 Prof. Cook's New Manual of the Apiary than from 

 any other book.— E. H. VVvxiioop. 



This book is just what everyone interested in 

 bees ought to have, and which, no one who obtains 

 it, will ever regret having purcnased.— ..Vic/i. Far. 



To all who wish to engage 'n bee-culture, a 

 manual is a necessity. Prof. Cook's Manual is an 

 exhaustive work.— iie raid, Monticello, 111. 



With Cook's Manual I am more than pleased. It 

 ia fuily up with the times in every particular. The 

 richest reward awaits its author.— A. K. Wenzel. 



My success has been so great as to almost aston- 

 ish myself, and mucli of it is due lo the clear, dis- 

 interested information ctmtained in Cook's Man- 

 uai.— Wfli. Van Antweki*. M. D 



It is the latest book on the bee, and treats of both 

 the bee and hives, with their implements. It is of 

 value to all bec-rui»ers.— Ky. Live Stock Record. 



It is a credit to the author as well the publisher. 

 I have never yet met with a work, either French 

 or foreign, whuh 1 like so much.— L'Abue Du 

 liois, editor of the BuUetin D' ApicuUeur, France. 



It not only gives the natural history of these in- 

 dustrious inse«.ts, but also a thorougli. practical, 

 and clearly expressed series of directions for their 

 management; also a botanical description ot honey 

 produciugplants, and an extended account of the 

 enemies of bees.— Democraty Pulaski, N. V. 



We have perused with great pleasure this vade 

 nu- c livi vt ihti bee-keeper. It is replete with the 

 best mlurnjution on everything belonging to api- 

 culture. To al takingan interest in this stil'jecl. 

 wc si:y, obtain this valuable wnrk, read it careiully 

 and practice as advi'^tnl.-Agrlculturii.t, Quebec. 



This book is prononnced by the press and leading 

 bee-men to be the must complete and practical 

 treatise on bee-culture in Kuropeor America ; a 

 scienttHe work on modern bee niunagemeni that 

 every experienced bee- man will welc.me. and it is 

 essential to every amateur in bee-«'ultur''. It ia 

 handsomely printed, neatly bound, and is a credit 

 to the \\ iibL—Vl'tbttm AyricuLii I u>t. 



This work is undoubtedly the most coitplete 

 manual lor the instruction ot bee-keepers which 

 hasevert)een published. It gives a full e.\,^lana- 

 tion regarding the care and management of the 

 apiary. There is no subject relating to the culture 

 uf bees left untouched, and in the compilation of 

 the work Prof. Cook has liad the advantage of all 

 the previous knowlede ot apiarists, which he uses 

 admirably to promote and make popular this most 

 interesting of all occupaiions.—-d/uenca H Inventor.
