About this ebook
This is an exposition of a bee propagation technique developed in the early twentieth century. With step-by-step instructions and helpful illustrations, "An Improved System of Propagating the Honey Bee" will appeal to those with an interest in the history and development of bee-keeping, and it is not to be missed by collectors of related literature. Contents include: "Formation of Honey Bees", "Find the Queen", and "Queen Nursery Formed". 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.
