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

 the Apiary, enlarged and elegantly illustrated. 

 The first edition of S.OOO copies was exhausted In- 

 about 18 months — a sale unprecedeRtcd in the- 

 annals of bee-culture. This new work bus beet* 

 produced with great care, patient study and per- 

 sistent research. It comprises a full dellneatlotL' 

 of the anatomy and physiology of the honey bee^ 

 illustrated with many costly wood encravings — 

 the productsof the Honey Bee ; the races ol bees; 

 fulldesccriptions of honey-producing plan ts.trees, 

 shrubs, etc.splendidly illustrated— and Inat.thouch* 

 not least, detailed lnstructit>ns fur the various- 

 manipulations necessary m tlie apiary. 



This work is a masterly production, and one that, 

 no bee-keeper, however limited his* means, cac' 

 aflord to do without. It is fully "up with the times"* 

 on every conceivable subject that can interest the- 

 apiarist. U is not only Lnstruclive, but intensely 

 inierestin« and thoroughly practical.

 bees ought to have, and which, no one who ootinns- 

 It, will ever regret bavini; purcDased.-..Vic/t. Far. 



To all who wish to eneage 'n bee-culture, & 

 manual is a necessity. Prut. Cook's Manual is an- 

 exhauBtive work.— /icraiti, Montitello, 111. 



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

 Ib fu.ly up with iiiL' limes in every particular. The- 

 richest reward awaits its author.— A. E. Wkn'zeu

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

 interested information contained iD Cook's Man^ 

 ual.- WM. Van ANTWERl*. M. D 



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

 It not only prives the natural history of these In- 

 dustrious insects, but also a thoroutch, practical,, 

 and clearly expressed sehes of directions fur their 

 management ;alt*o a botanical description ot honey 

 producing plants, and an extended account ot the* 

 enemies of bees.— X^cniocrat, Pulaski. N, Y'. 



We have perused with great pleasure this vnd^ 

 mrruin ot the bee-keeper. It is replete with tbO"
