Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dadant System of Beekeeping The worker bees hatch from the egg in 21 days, in ordinary circumstances. They do duty about the inside for a week, before attempting a ight outside. About the seventh day, in the after noon, they take their first ight, coming back home after having made the acquaintance of the surroundings, and remaining another week indoors. It is therefore only after 2 weeks of insect life, 5 weeks from the laying of the egg, that the worker becomes a field bee and begins to harvest honey. This is im portant to know, if we wish to get our force of honey harvesters at the right time. The worker does not live long in the busy season. Previous to the introduction of the Italian bee in apiaries of common bees, it was difficult, if not impossible, to ascertain how long a worker lives. The introduction of Italian bees has helped solve this problem in a positive manner. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt: ...the watching for swarms a negligible matter. This is of importance to us, since we are constantly busy at a variety of labor, for we are not only beekeepers, but also dealers in bee goods and makers of comb foundation, with a large force of men under our direction. It is also very important not to be required to keep a watchman at each outapiary. It is true that there are seasons when the bees get ahead of us and when it might pay to keep a watchman at each apiary. But these seasons are rare. In 50 years past, we have remembrance of only two, when the bees got so far ahead of us that we had swarms, in great numbers, that were not cared for. A little farther along we will give our method of preventing swarming. We will first give our method of making increase. We stated, in the chapter on spring management, that we do not now rear our own queens. But as we have reared queens for increase, at one time, we will indicate the method which we followed when neither the Doolittle method, nor the still more modern Barbeau method, were in use. The apiarist who wishes to rear queens, in the most modern way, should refer to special works on queen-rearing. Queens for Increase In early spring we remove as much as possible, all dronecomb from the colonies, except from two or three which we desire as drone breeders. These are among our best honey producers of the previous year. We want them pure Italians, because both past experience and breeding theories indicate that hybrids, however good they may prove as honey producers, do not transmit their qualities so invariably as a pure race. We also prefer pure Italians to other foreign races, because with the Italian we can readily recognize the least amount of foreign blood, while with recognized good races...

Download or read book The Honey Bee written by Frank Benton and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-20 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Honey Bee: A Manual of Instruction in Apiculture This treatise is designed to make the practical management Of an apiary plain to those whose acquaintance with the subject is limited, and to direct such as may find in it a pleasant and profitable occu patiou to a system Of management which may be followed on an exten sive scale with the certainty of fair remuneration for the labor and capital required. With this Object in view the author has deemed it best to treat the natural history Of the bee but briefly, and also to give little space to matters which are in question, or to different methods Of accomplishing given results, or to such-as are only adapted to a limited portion of the country, but rather to explain one settled way widely applicable and which will lead to success. The methods advised here are such as the author has found practical during an extended expe rience, yet in regard to numerous details many works - both foreign and American - have been consulted, none more freely than Langstroth on the Honey Bee, revised by Chas. Dadant Son, and Bees and Bee Keeping, by Prof. F. R. Cheshire. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Italian System of Bee Keeping Having been asked to edit the following notes during their original publication in the columns of the Field newspaper and their republication in the present form, I have had much pleasure in acceding to the request. The principle of the Giotto hive is not new, it being a slight modification of the leaf hive designed by Huber. Its merit lies in its simplicity and cheapness, and in the admirable manner in which it is capable of being worked with the inexpensive honey extractor or smielatore. With regard to the home manufacture of the hive, I would suggest that anyone, living within reach of a saw mill, would find it much more advantageous to obtain the pieces for each frame separately, as rods 3ft. O 1/2 in. long, 1 3/6 in. wide, and 1 in. thick, could be procured cut to the exact size, and at a much cheaper rate at a saw mill than they could be cut out of planks. It gives me much pleasure to be the means of introducing so practical and useful a system of bee management to the English public.
