"Profitable Bee-Keeping for Small-Holders and Others" offers the reader simple tips and guidance on how to set up and manage a beehive for profit. From apiary construction and swarming to marketing honey and beyond, this volume contains everything a modern bee-keeper needs to know about his occupation. Contents include: "The Economy of the Hive", "Stocking an Apiary", "Hives and Appliances", "The Preparation of Frames and Sections", "Feeding Principles", "The Production of Honey", "Natural Swarms", "Marketable Products", "Correct Manipulations", "Mid-season Work", "The Apiarist and his Foes", "Increasing and Uniting", etc. Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on Bee-keeping.
