Read the opinion of one of the most eminent 

 writers on bee matters: 



Bound Brook, N. J., May 4, 18K3. 



Friend Alley:— Handy Book received. 1 am 

 happy to say that I consider that it tells more on 

 the vital subjects of rearing (Queens and manauing 

 bees so as to take honey, than tiny bt-'oknow before 

 the public. It seems to be tilled with just those 

 things which pntetical men find out about their 

 business in a lifetime of work, but which they 

 generally don't tell the dear public. 



J. Hasbrouck. 



The HANDY BOOK has received from those 

 most competent to judge of its value, more praise 

 than any book now in print. Send for our Circular 

 and get their opinions.
