BEES for SALE. 



I have for sale about 300 Colonies of the 



Celebrated Arkansas Brown Bees, 



which I will dispose of in lots of TEN COLONIES 

 OR MOKE at very reasonable prices. They are in 

 ten-frame Langstroth and box hives. These bees 

 are said to be large, remarkably amiable, good sec- 

 tion workers, and excellentcomb builders. Owing 

 to the mildness of the Arkansas winter, they will 

 be very strong in bees, and spring dwindling will 

 be avoide I. These bees can be delivered on board 

 steamer, near Memphis, before the middle of 

 March, and before the early honey flow and swarm- 

 ing commences. Writeosoon for bargains, as*'I 

 Will close out both my Southern Apiaries by March 

 15th, or remove them North. 



I am also bookina orders for Italian Queens, Nu- 

 clei and Colonies, to be supplied from Chicago in 

 June. Address,

MANUAL OF THE APIARY, 



By A. J. COOK, 



Of Lansing, Projessor of EntonioloQ]/ in tJie 

 State Agricultural College of Michigan. 



820 PaKe«; 133 Fine IIluNtratiomi. 



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

 the Apiary, enlarged and elegantly Illustrated. 

 The llrst edition of 3,000 copies was exhausted in 

 about 18 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 the anatomy and physiology of the honey bee, 

 illustrated with many costly wood engravings — 

 the products of the Honey Bee ; the races of bees; 

 full desccriptions of honey-producing plants.irees. 

 shrubs, etc., splendidly Illustrated— and last.thougU 

 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 limes" 

 on every conceivable subject that can interest the 

 apiarist. It is not only instructive, but intensely 

 interesting and thoroughly practical. 



Head the follmiHng opinions of the Book ; 



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

 real vdlua.—L' Apiculture^ Paris. 



I think Cook's Manual is the best of our Ameri- 

 can works.-LEWis T. COLBY. 



It appears to ha^-e cut the ground from under 

 future book-makers.— BnU.sh Bee JournaL 



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

 stant guide in my operations and successful man- 

 agement of tlie apiary.— J. P. WEST. 



I have derived more practical knowledge from 

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

 any other book.— E. U. Wynkoop. 



This book is just what everyone Interested in 

 bees ought to have, and whicii, no one who oDtaina 

 it, will ever reyret having puiCQused,- J^iicyt. Far. 



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

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

 exhaustive wvrk.— Herald, Mouticello, III. 



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

 is fuily up with tlie times in every particular. Tbe 

 richest reward awaits its author.— A. E. Wen'zel. 



My success has been so preat as to almost aston- 

 ish myself, and much ot it is due to the clear, dis- 

 interested information contained in Coolt's Man- 

 uai.— Wai. Van A.ntwekp. M. D 



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

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

 vaiue to all bee-raisers.— A"i/. 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 lureigii. whivh I like so much.— L'Abbe Uu 

 Bois, editor of the Butu-tui D' .apicufteur, France. 



It not only gives the natural history of these In- 

 dustrious insecus, but also a thorough, practical, 

 aud clearly expressed seiiesof directions for their 

 management; also a botanical description of honey 

 producing plants, and an e.\tended account of the 

 enemies ot b^es.— Democrat, Pulaski, N. Y. 



We have perused with great pleasure this vade 

 mecum of tlie bee-keeper. It is replete with tho 

 best intorniatioo on everything belonging to api- 

 culture. To al taking an interest in tins subject, 

 we say, obtain this valuable work, read it carefully 

 and p'laciicc as adviaad.—AgncaUuriitt, Quebec. 



This book l3 pronounced by the press and leading 

 bee-men to be the most complete and practical 

 trearise on bee-culture in Europe or America; a 

 BCientidc work on modern bee management that 

 every experienced bee man will welcome, and it la 

 essential to every uiiiateiir in bee-culture. It ie 

 handsomely printed, neatly bound, and is a credit 

 to the W esi.— Wiblern AyricuUurist. 



This wort Is undoubtedly the most coiiplete 

 manual lor the insiniciioTi of bee-keepers whieh 

 has ever been published. It gives a tull explana- 

 tion rugariiing tlie care and management ot the 

 apiary. There is no sut>jcct relaimg to the culture 

 of bees lett untouched, and In the compilation of 

 the work Prot. Cook has had the advantage of all 

 the previous knowlede of apiarists, which houses 

 admirably to promote and make popular this most 

 Interesting of alloccupaAions.— .dJiimcaTi Inventor.
