Excerpt from Productive Bee-Keeping: Modern Methods of Production and Marketing of Honey The author's earliest recollections are of days with his grandfather among the bees. One of the proudest days of his whole life was the first time he was permitted to cut a limb from an apple tree on which a swarm had clustered. With a lifetime of intimate association with the bees and a wide acquaintance among the bee - keepers of the nation, it may not be regarded as surprising that he should undertake to set down in this book the information gleaned from so many sources.
