Prof. Hasbrouck's opinion of the Handy Bool,: 

 "Handy Book received. I am happy to say, that I consider that it tells more on the vital subjects of 

 rearing queens and managing bees so as to take honey, than any book now before the public. It seems to 

 he filled with just those things which practical men find out about their business in a lifetime of work, but 

 which they generally don't tell the dear public."
