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-culiure. 'I'his new work has been 

 produced with great care, putieut study and per- 

 sistent research. It comprises a full delineation 

 uf the anatomy and physiology of the honey bee, 

 illustrated with many costly wood engravings — 

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

 f u II desccnptions of honey-producing plants. trees, 

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

 not least, detailed instructions for the vurioue 

 manipulations necessary ir\ the apiary. 



This work is a masterly production, and one that 

 DO bee-keeper, liowever 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. 



Head the foUo^ving optniwis of the Book; 



All agree thai it Is the work of a master and of 

 real vulue.—L' Apic^ttture, Paris. 



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

 can wuriis.- LEWIS T. COLliV. 



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

 futme book-makers.— Bn(i.--/i Bee JouTnal. 



Prof. Cook's valuable Manual has been my 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 of the Apiary than from 

 aoy other book.— E. U. Wvnkoop. 



This book is Just what everyone Interested Id 

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

 It, will ever regret havmg puicnased.-3iit;/i. Far. 



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

 manual is a necessity. Pi of. Cook's Manual is aD 

 exhaustive work,— ifera/d, Monticello, 111. 



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

 is fuily up with the uiues in every particular. The 

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



My success has been so great as to almost aston- 

 ish myselt, and much of it is due 10 ihe clear, dis- 

 interested iiilormaiion contained in Cook's Man- 

 ual. -W.n. Van ANTWEiti', M. i) 



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

 the bee and iiives, with their implements. It Is of 

 value to all bee-raisers.— Ky. Live Stock Record. 



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

 1 have never yet met with a work, either Frencb 

 or tureiun. wiiich 1 like so much.— L'ABBe i>U 

 Bois, editor of the BuLetin Z)' ApictUteur, France. 



It not only gives the natural history of these In- 

 dustrious insects, but also a thorougrh, practical, 

 and clearly e.vpressed series of directions for their 

 management; also a botanical description of honey 

 producini-' plants, and an extended account of the 

 enemies of bees.- iJi-niocrut, Pulaski, N. V. 



We have perused with great pleasure th'ta vndt 

 mrcum of tlie bee-keeper. It is leplete with the 

 best information cm everything belunmng to api- 

 culture. Toal takingan iinere>l in iliis subject, 

 we say, obtain this valuable W(.trk. read it careiully 

 and practice as advised.— Ai/ncu/funAt, Quebec. 



This book Is pronounced by the press and leading 

 t>ee-mea 10 be the most complete and pmctical 

 treatise on bee-culture in Europe or America ; a 

 scientitlc work on modern bee management that 

 ever>- experienced bee miin will welcome, and it is 

 essential to every amateur in bee-culture. It iB 

 hana&omely printed, neatly bound, and is a credit 

 to the W est.- Webtern AgncuUurut. 



This work Is undoubtedly the moat coiiplete 

 manual tor the instruction of bee-keepers whieti 

 hits ever been publl^hed. It gives a full ex^,lana- 

 lion regarding tlie care and management of the 

 apiary. Theie is no subject relatuig to the culture 

 of bees lett untoncheil, and in the compilation of 

 the work Prof. Cook has liad the advantage of all 

 the previous knowlede of apiarists, which he uses 

 admirably to promote and make popular this most 

 interesting or alloccupa'tions.-^J.iiieTncaTi Imxiitor.
