This book was released on 2017-12-07 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Temperature of the Honeybee Cluster in Winter A special reason for this emphasis in a preliminary paper is that all previous work on the temperature of the cluster in winter, of which there has been considerable, has failed to show definitely What the normal responses are. The data are often those of abnormal con ditions and are therefore misleading, making them almost valueless for purposes of application, One source of error which is to be found in all the records known to the authors is the use of the mer cury thermometer, for, when such a thermometer is used, it is almost impossible to avoid disturbing the cluster at each reading so that it reacts abnormally. Furthermore, as the authors will attempt to show at a later time, disturbances of the colony may influence the temperature of the cluster for a considerable period, often more than one day. Usually no account has been taken of the necessary cor rections to be made for the mercury thermometer. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heat Production of Honeybees in Winter In considering the circumstances on this last day-of the experi ment with bees it is interesting to recall observations made in the study Of the effect Of ventilation on men, that the sensations produced by bad 7air are not experienced when the air is stirred. If this indicates an actual cliflerence in physiological conditions in the di mer ent circumstances, then it is not inconceivable that something analo gous to this was true Of the bees on this day. The stirring Of the air when the circulation was resumed may have served to remove some cause Of depression that was e mective when the circulation was stopped.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Overwintering of Honey Bee Colonies Strong colonies will usually consume considerably more honey over winter than weak colonies. However, such strong colonies will usually replace most of the honey used during the winter with new honey from willow, dandelion, fruit bloom, and other early blooming sources, under the same conditions that under-developed colonies continue to lose weight or show little or no gain. The strong colony that has a large population of young bees by mid-april not only shows a smaller net loss of reserve stores at the beginning of the surplus flow in june than a subnormal colony, but also is stronger and more capable of produc ing a large surplus crop.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bees in a Bar-Frame Hive Begin in a small way; don't believe in large profits. The bees so fertilize the blossom of fruit and field, that every kitchen garden and every farm should have its hives. Here is one main source of profit. Buy a veil, and use it on a hat with a wide rim. Coarse black net is cheap. Make a piece about 30 inches by 26 into a bottomless. Bag with a hem at the top; add elastic about 16 inches long to go round the hat. Tuck the lower part well in. Some rich folks like a black silk veil. Thick woollen gloves wetted protect the hands, but are a serious hindrance. A tightened string round the covered wrist and ankles will keep out creepers; gauntlets for the arms, going over the sleeves, with elastic at each end, can be made or bought.

This book was released on 2018-02-05 with total page 556 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Treatise on the Hive and Honey-Bee Each comb in this hive is attached to a separate movable frame, and by following the directions given in this Treatise, they may be all taken out in a few minutes, without cutting or injuring them in the least, or at all enraging the bees. By this arrangement, Weak stocks may be easily strengthen ed, by helping them to combs, honey, or maturing brood taken from strong ones, and queenless colonies saved from certain ruin, by giving them the means of obtaining another queen. As all the stocks in the Apiary, by the control of the combs, can be kept strong in numbers and in possession of a fertile queen, the ravages of the bee-moth may be effectually prevented. If the bee-keeper suspects that anything is the matter with a. Hive, he can open it, and by actual examination of its combs, ascertain, in a few minutes, its true condition, and thus apply intelligently the remedies which it needs. New colonies may be formed in less time than is usually required for hiving natural swarms; or the hive may be managed on the common swarming plan, or enlarged, (with out any alteration. Of existing parts, ) so as to afford ample ac commodation for a non-swarming stock. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wintering Bees in Iowa F. W. Hall, Colo, Story County: After trying every plan have decided that for Iowa conditions cellar wintering is best. Of equal numbers wintered in cellar and packed outside losses have been several times greater in outdoor wintered colonies. (sioux County). In Story county lost only one colony in 356 wintered in the cellar. In one cel lar which was too warm losses were heavier. When bees are in right condition they will winter in almost any hole in the ground. No ap parent differences in results whether t0ps and bottoms are left on, or removed. W. S. Pangburn, Center Junction, Jones County: A seven-eighth inch entrance is used winter and summer. The bees are tiered up five high in cellar with front of hive one inch lower than back. The door is frequently opened at night to let in fresh air. Temperature is not so important as proper ventilation and a dry cellar. The results of win tering are frequently perfect, but have had some losses when honey dew was mixed with the stores. Spring dwindling is caused by putting the bees out too early. Plenty of stores for early brood rear ing are important. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Bee Culture I had to brace it with two sticks to keep it from tumbling over. I made some crude movable-frame hives (for I had not yet seen a patent movable; frame hive). With this outfit I began bee - keeping anew, studying them by handling them on their combs. My bee business began to grow; and after keeping bees thus for several years I heard of a bee-keeper who had bought some patent factory made hives. I paid him a visit at once, and I saw that the hives were just what I needed, so I bought a lot of them Next season I transferred my bees into them. From the old crude hives I transfered bees and what I had on hand extra, furnished me fuel during the summer and following winter. From the old decayed box hive my bee business has spread until bee keeping is my business or sole occupation. Besides establishing five apiaries of my own around in this section (as many bees as I can give proper atten tion to), I have furnished foundation stock from which many apiaries have been established in various sections of the South from the old mother hives. The ups and downs I had during this time, I have not space to describe in this small volume. If there is such a thing as a man being called to do certain work, I have been called to the field of bee culture, for I feel out of my calling at any thing else. Although I have mastered no little at eight other occupations, yet I feel more as if I am at my allotted work when I am among my bees than I do at any other of my trades. I have applied myself to bee-keeping in almost every conceivable man ner, keeping colonies of bees in glass hives in my bedroom and on my ver anda, keeping close and constant watch on them by day and by night. I have operated bees successfully and extensively for extracted chunk and comb honey m sections; I have traveled to and fro across the South, investi gating bee-keeping and the honey-plants in many sections; and if I did not know that there is a great future for the bee and honey industry here I would not attempt to write this book. While methods' of apiary work and bee-keeping differ m sections and locations, I hope to give you at least some practical thoughts along bee-keeping in your own location.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Beginner in Bee Culture Since the introduction of the bar frame hive, many scientific as well as practical apiarists have made a close study of bee-keeping, contributing Opinions which it behoves us to consider carefully. It is not suggested that, to be successful, the apiarist should necessarily be a scientist, but it is intended rather to stress the advantage to be derived from associating with practical experience a sound knowledge of the main principles of apiculture. As in other activities, the start Is all-important. A start in the wrong direction leads to all scrts of troubles, and in no case is this better instanced than where the beginner purchases bees 1n any odd-sized hives, thus inaugurating an any old way system at the opposite pole to any which characterise profitable modern bee-keeping. Five well-hived colonies containing a fair breed of bees will with ordinary attention, equal thirty Of the kept any way sort, so far as production is concerned. Surely then it is easier to attend to five hives than thirty? It is quality, not number, that counts, and the beginner's first aim should be to keep bees the right way. A very comfortable living can be made from apiculture, providing the apiarist will properly qualify himself to become a producer. The three main things are experience, locality, and energy. Small apiaries can be profitably worked as a side line with other industries, providing time can be found for ordinary attention during the season.
