A GREAT NEW BOOK 



FOR 



BEEKEEPERS 



The American beekeeper has long been in need jf a thorough knowledge "i the honey plants of this 

 country. 



To know the sources of honey supply and the location of such sources, is indispensable to beekeeping 

 success. 



The American beekeeper is at last going to be supplied with this knowledge by the highest American 

 authority on the subject of honey plants, Mr. John H. Lovell, scientist, author, and beekeepei 



The Honey Plants of North America, 

 North of Mexico, and Guide to the best Lo- 

 cations for Beekeeping in the United States 



subject of the book which Mr. Lovell has been preparing by life-long study and now about to 

 be printed by us as his publishers and collaborators. 



This new book will prove the most important contribution made to American beekeeping lore in years 

 — literally filling "a long-felt want." 



No brief description can j ibly tell of the beekeeping ground covered by the author. Among the 



ubjects treated, will be found chapters on the "The Influence of Environment on the Secretion 

 of Nectar," "Plants Valuable for Pollen Only," "Honeydew," "Plants of Little Value to Bee Culture." 



itire part oi tin I I will be given over to discussion of "Nectar— Its Secretion, Protection and 



Distribution." Another pari will give the fullest and most finely illustrated de I North 



American honey plants ever printed. 



Still another part (and perhaps the mo I important) will deal with the honey plants of different sec- 

 untrj and furnish a guide to the best locations for beekeeping 



All this big and valuable work for beekeepers has been done with Mr. Lovell's widely known scientific 



11 \ : but technical terms have been avoided, and the language used is that of the common bee- 



ngratulate tin beekeepers <>i America upon the prospect of having the new aid and encouragi 



, thi .Mil new book will give to our baekeeping. 



We are already .1 lublication, and .rust it will be .iti the press early m 1920
