The Bee-Keeper's Guide; 



OR, 



MANUAL OF THE APIARY, 



By A. J. COOK, 



Of LansUig, Professor of Entomology tn the 

 State AgricQltaral College of Michigan. 



320 pAKei* ; 133 Fine IIluHtratloiiA. 



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

 the Apiary, enlarged and elegantly illustrated. 

 The drst 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 delineatioa 

 of the anatomy and physiology of the honey bee» 

 illustrated with many costly wood engravings — 

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

 full desccriplions of honey-producing plants.lrees, 

 shrubs, etc.splendidly illustrated— and la3t,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 that can interest the 

 apiarist. It is not only instructive, but intensely 

 interesting and thoroughly practical. 



Bead the follo^vituj opinions of the Book; 



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

 real value.— 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.- iiri(i.-/i Bee Jifurnal, 



Prof. Cook's valuable Jlanual has been my con- 

 stant ^:nide in my operations and successful man- 

 agement of the apiary.— J. P. West. 



I have derived more practical knowledge from 

 Prof. C<'ok's New Munual ot the Apiary than from 

 any other book.— E. U. Wynkoop. 



This book is just what everyone interested Id 

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

 it, will ever regret having purcnased.— ilf it/t. Far. 



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

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

 exhaustive work.— if era /d, Monticello, 111. 



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

 is fuily up with the times in every particular. The 

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



My success has been so great as to almost aston- 

 ish mysell, and much of it is due to the clear, dis- 

 interested inlormation contained in Cook's Man- 

 ual.— WM. Van ANTWERP, M. O 



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 bee-raisers.— Kj/. Live Stock Record. 



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

 I have never yet met witli a work, either French 

 or foreign, which 1 hke so much.— I^' ABBE l>u 

 Bois, editor of the Bulletin D' ApicuUeurt France. 



It not only gives the natural history of these in- 

 dustrious insects, but also a tboniugb, practical, 

 and ck'iirly expressed seiies of dircriions for their 

 management; also a botanical description f>t hrjney 

 producing plants, and an extended account of the 

 enemies of been.— Democrat, Pulaski, N. V. 



We have perused with great pleasure this vad» 

 mecum ot the bee-keeper. It is replete with the- 

 best intormation on everything belonging to api- 

 culture. To Hi taking an interest in this subject* 

 we say. obtain this valuable work, read it carefully 

 and practice as adviMed.-^i7ncui(unj.(, Quebec. 



This book is pronounced by the press and leading 

 bee-men to be the must coiiiplcte and practical 

 treatise on bee-culture in liuropenr America; a 

 scientific work on modern bee management that 

 everj' experienced bee man will welcome; and it is 

 essential to every amateur In bee-culture. It is 

 handsonjely printed, neatly bound, and is a credit 

 to the W ertU—Wtbtem AgricuUurist. 



This work is undoubtedly the most complote 

 manual tor the instruction of bee-keepers whi&h 

 has ever been pubh.'-hed. It gives a full explana- 

 tion regarding thec;ireand management of the 

 apiary. There is no subject relating to the culture 

 of bees left untouched, and in the compilation of 

 the work Prof. Cook has had the advantage of all 

 the previous knowlede of apiarists, which houses 

 admirably to promote and make popular this most 

 interesting of alloccupaiiou8.—.4mertca7i Inwntor.
