New Kegs 



FOU HOXEY. 



In order to sattsfv the demand for small pacba- 

 (res for Extracted iloney. I have heretofore pro- 

 cured kegs intended for syrup, tlsh, lard, etc., and 

 In view of this ^ruwinn trade, I now feel justified 

 in having made to order aSpeclal 1i.ee 



Designed Expressly for Honey. 



These 1 am obll^'ed to buy In larjie quantities in 

 order to supply tlieni at popular prices, and pro- 

 cure a package not used for any other purpose. 

 They are madeol Norway Pine, and have from 7 

 to H chine hoops on ca« h end. 



I have tested a sample keg by Hlling it DRY with 

 white clover honey, aixi without the heads being 

 painted. 



It neither leaks nor flavors the Honey. 



It is not necessary to paint the heads, but when 

 painted I will guarantee them not to leak, and if 

 well scalded, the pine will not flavor the 

 honey. 



Capacity, 175 pounds Price, 80c. each. 



The first car load of these kegs will arrive about 

 Sept. inth. and all orders will receive my prompt 

 attention. 



The 5 and 10 gallon kegs will be sold, as hereto- 

 fore, at 40c. and r>.')C. each, respectively.

The Bee-Keeper's Guide; 



OR, 



MANUAL OF THE APIARY, 



By A. J. COOK, 



Of Lansing, Professor of Entomology in the 

 State Agricultural College of Michigan. 



3SO Pave*; \S'^ Fine lIlUHlruttons. 



This 1b 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 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 ot bees; 

 f ull desccriptions of honey-producing plants.trees, 

 shrubs, etcsplcndidly Illustrated— and Iaat,thouKh 

 not least, detailed instructions for the various 

 manipulations necessary In the apiary. 



This work is a rauaterly production, and one that 

 no bee-keeper, however limited his means, can 

 afford to do without. It Is fully "up with the limes" 

 oa every conceivable subject that can interest the 

 apiarist. It is not only instructive, but intensely 

 interesting and thoroughly practical. 



Bead the follo^ving opinions of the Book ; 



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

 real value.— i..-l/Ht:ii»urc, Paris. 



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

 can works.- LEWIS T. COLUY. 



It appears to ha-e cut the ground from under 

 future buok-makers.— 7infu-/t Bee Juurnal. 



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

 stant j^uutc in my operations iind succosstui man- 

 agement of the apiary.— J. P. West. 



I have derived more practical knowledge from 

 Prot. Cook's New Manual ot the Apiary than Irom 

 any other book.-E. H. \V ynkoop. 



This book is 3u9t what everyone Interested in 

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

 it, will ever reyrct having puvcnased.-J»f it/i. Far. 



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

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

 exhaustive work.— i/c raid, Monticello. III. 



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

 l8 fu.ly up wiih the times in every particular. The 

 richest rewaiU awaits it* author.— A. K. Wenzel.. 



My success has been so great as to almost aston- 

 ish myselt, ana much of it is due to the clear, dis- 

 interested iiitormation contained in Cook's Man- 

 uh1,_Wm. Van a.ntweui*. 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.— fi^y. 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 lureign. which 1 like so much.— L'ABUE 1>U 

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



It not only gives the natural history of these in- 

 dustrious insects, but also a thorough, practical, 

 and clearly expressed series of directions for their 

 management; alsoa botanical description nt honey 

 producing plants, and an e.xteoded account ut the 

 enemies oi bees.- £>emycr(i(, Pulaski, N. V. 



We have perused with great pleasure this vad6 

 mfcu7)i of the bee-keeper. It la replete with the 

 best intormation on everything belonging to api- 

 culture. To al taking an iniere?t in this subject, 

 we say, obtain this valuable work, read it careiuUy 

 and practice as advised.— Jii;7icui(um(, Quebec. 



This book Is pronounced by the press ond leading 

 bee-meu to be the most complete and practical 

 treatise on bee-culture in Kuropeor America; a 

 BCientiac work on modem bee management thai 

 every experienced bee man will welcome, and it is 

 essential to every amateur In bee-culture. It ia 

 hanusomely printed, neatly bound, and is a credit 

 to the \V eAU—Wcittrn AgriculLurut. 



This work is undoubtedly the most cotiplete 

 manual lor the instruction ot bee-keepers whieh 

 has ever lieen poblifhed. It gives a full explana- 

 tion regarding tlie csireand management of the 

 apiarv, Thei e Is no subject relating to the culture 

 of bees Ictf untouched, and in the compilation of 

 the work Prof. Cook has had the advantage of all 

 the previous knowlede of apiarists, which he uses 

 admirably to promote and make popular this most 

 inierestiug of^iillocctpaiiODs.— .Anw-ncan Inventor,
