This vintage book contains a detailed guide to setting up and managing a beehive, with chapters on swarming, handling, rearing, diseases, and much more. Although old, much of the information in this book is timeless and will be of considerable utility to modern bee-keepers. Contents include: The Swellings of Bees , The Population of the Hive , Swarms, Natural and Artificial , How to Establish and Manage Bees , Handling Bees , Obtaining Heather Honey , Rearing and Introducing Queens , Diseases , Cost and Returns , and Calendar of Work for the Year . 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.
