Practical Queen Rearing 



BY FRANK C. PELLETT 



In preparation for this book Mr. Pel- 

 lett visited many of America's fore- 

 most beekeepers and queen breeders, 

 both north and south, and has de- 

 scribed their methods fully. 



The methods of the older queen- 

 breeders and writers, Alley, Doolit- 

 tle and others, are explained with 

 the variations which are the develop- 

 ment of later years. 



Simple methods of rearing a few queens in a small apiary, 

 as well as methods used for rearing queens in wholesale 

 quantity, make the book valuable alike to the ordinary 

 beekeeper and commercial queen breeder. 



Cloth binding, 105 pages, 40 illustrations. Price $1.

 and visits to important honey producing 

 sections, from New England to Califor- 

 nia, and from Canada to Florida and 

 Texas.

 keeper and reliable naturalist. Pro- 

 fusely illustrated with original photo- 

 graphs.
