This book was released on 2017-10-31 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Moses Quimby was a beekeeper for decades, and wrote this guidebook to pass on the practical knowledge he had accumulated tending to bees and their hives. We examine how to begin a hive, breed your first colony of bees, properly situate your apiary and assure that the bees are given good nutrition. Spacing the hives adequately, and protecting against common pests such as worms is discussed. How to obtain a queen, and what to do in the event a queen is lost, is paired with discussions of creating artificial swarms, that a colony's population may grow faster. The dangers of the hobby, in particular angering the bees and stings, form their own chapters. We learn how to calm an agitated swarm with smoke, and protect a swarm from agitators such as rats, mice and certain breeds of bird. Extremes of temperature can also threaten a hive; heat can melt a honeycomb to the point where it is unusable, while cold can kill a colony altogether. Quimby responds to all these potential calamities with sound advice grounded in his own personal experience. In the mid-19th century, beekeeping was already a refined process. A considerable community of hobbyists, including the author, enjoyed success gathering honey and overseeing large hives. Much of the advice within this manual remains useful and practical in the modern day, being as it is rooted in the biological, environmental and logistical realities of keeping bees.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the reader decides that an apology is necessary for the introduction of another work on bees into the presence of those already before the public, it is hoped that he will have the patience to examine the contents of this. The writer of the following pages commenced beekeeping in 1828, without any knowledge of the business to assist him, save a few directions about hiving, smoking them with sulphur, &c. Nearly all the information to be had was so mingled with erroneous whims and notions, that it required a long experience to separate essential and consistent points. It was impossible to procure a work that gave the information necessary for practice. From that time to the present, no sufficient guide for the inexperienced has appeared. European works, republished here, are of but little value. Weeks, Townley, Miner, and others, writers of this country, within a few years, have given us treatises, valuable to some extent, but have entirely neglected several chapters, very important and essential to the beginner. Keeping bees has been, and is now, by the majority, deemed a hazardous enterprise. The ravages of the moth had been so great, and loss so frequent, that but little attention was given to the subject for a long time. Mr. Weeks lost his entire stock three times in fifteen years. But soon after the discovery was promulgated, that honey could be taken from a stock without destroying the bees, an additional attention was manifest, increasing to a rage in many places. It seems to be easily understood, that profit must attend success, in this branch of the farmer's stock; inasmuch as the "bees work for nothing and find themselves." This interest in bees should be encouraged to continue till enough are kept to collect all the honey now wasted; which, compared with the present collections, would be more than a thousand pounds to one. But to succeed, that is the difficulty. Some eighteen years since, after a propitious season, an aged and esteemed friend said to me, "It is not to be expected that you will have such luck always; you must expect they will run out after a time. I have always noticed, when people have first-rate luck for a time, that the bees generally take a turn, and are gone in a few years."
