MANUAL OF THE APIARY, 



By A. J. COOK, 



Of Lansing^ Professor of Entomology in the 

 State Agricultural CoUeg^e of Michigan. 



820 Pases; 133 Fine Illuiilratlous. 



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 18 months — a sale unprecedented in the 

 annals of bee-culture. This new work has been 

 produced with ereat care, patient study and per- 

 sistent reseaj-ch. It comprises a full delineation 

 of the anatomy and physiology of the honey bee, 

 illustrated with many costly wood engravings — 

 the products of the Iloney Bee ; the races of bees; 

 full desccriptions of boney-producing plants.trees, 

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

 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 

 aflord 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. 



Read the JoUo^oing opmimis of the Book; 



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

 real value.— L'-4p^ici(((ure, Paris. 



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

 can works.— Lewis T. Culbv. 



It appears to have cut the ground from under 

 future book-makers.— iirt(i,-./i Bet JuurnaL 



Prof, Cook's valuable M:inual has been ray con- 

 stant guide in my operations and successful man- 

 agementof the apiaiy.— J. P. West. 



I have derived more practical knowledge from 

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

 any other book.— E. 11. Wynkuop. 



This book is just what everyone interested In 

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

 it, will ever regret buvmg puicnased.— iUit/i. Far. 



To all who wish to engage *n bee-c6lture, a 

 manual is a nece.-sity. Pi of. Cook's Jlaoual is an 

 exhaustive work.— Herald, Monticello, 111. 



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

 is fuily uu with tlie cimes in every particular. The 

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



My success has been so great as to almost aston- 

 ish myself, and much of it is due to ihe clear, dis- 

 interested Intormation contained in Cook's Maa- 



Ulll.— \VM. VAX ANTWEKl*, 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 bee-raisers.— iCy. Live Stock Record. 



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

 1 have never yet met with a work, either French 

 or tureit^n. which 1 like so much.— L'Abbe DU 

 Bois, editor of the BuLetin D' Apiculteur, France. 



It not only gives the natural history of these in- 

 dustrious insects, but also a tho^ou^•h, practical, 

 and clearly expressed series of directions for their 

 management; also a botanical description ot honey 

 producint.' plants, and an extended account of the 

 enemies of bees.— iJtniOCruf, Pulaski. N, Y. 



We have perused with great pleasure this vadg 

 mccum of the L'ee-kf<-'n'?r. It is replete with the 

 best information on everything belonging to api- 

 culture. To al taking' an interest m this subject, 

 we say, obtain this valuable work, read it caretully 

 and practice as adviiivd.—AgricuUurvit, Quebec. 



This book is pronounced by the press and leading 

 bee-men to be the most conjplcte and practical 

 treatise on bee-culture in Europe or America ; a 

 scientific work on modern bee management that 

 every experienced bee man will welcome, and it is 

 essential to every amateur in bee-culture. It is 

 handsomely printed, neatly bound, and is a credit 

 to the \\est.— X\''ei>t€rnAgricuUuTi$t. 



This work is undoubtedly the moat complete 

 manual for the instruction of bee-keepers whiGb 

 has ever been published. It gives a full explana- 

 tion regarding the care and management of the 

 apiary. There is no subject relating to tlie culture 

 of bees lefr untouched, and in the compilation of 

 the work Prof. Cook has had the advjuitage of all 

 the previous knowlede of apiarists, which he uses 

 admirably to promote and make popular this most 

 interesting of alioccupa*itons.— .^.fucrican Inventor.
