Bee Hunting


A BOOK OF VALUABLE INFORMATION FOR BEE HUNTERS. Tells How to Line Bees
to Trees, Etc.

_The following is taken from the Author's Introduction to BEE HUNTING_

[Illustration]

Many books on sports of various kinds have been written, but outside of
an occasional article in periodicals devoted to bee literature, but
little has been written on the subject of Bee Hunting. Therefore, I have
tried in this volume--Bee Hunting for Pleasure and Profit--to give a
work in compact form, the product of what I have learned along this line
during the forty years in nature's school room.

Brother, if in reading these pages, you find something that will be of
value to you, something that will inculcate a desire for manly pastime
and make your life brighter, then my aim will have been reached.

_The book contains 13 chapters as follows_:

    I. Bee Hunting.
    II. Early Spring Hunting.
    III. Bee Watering--How to Find Them.
    IV. Hunting Bees from Sumac.
    V. Hunting Bees from Buckwheat.
    VI. Fall Hunting.
    VII. Improved Mode of Burning.
    VIII. Facts About Line of Flight.
    IX. Baits and Scents.
    X. Cutting the Tree and Transferring.
    XI. Customs and Ownership of Wild Bees.
    XII. Benefactors and Their Inventions.
    XIII. Bee Keeping for Profit.

_This book contains 80 pages, paper cover._

_Price, postpaid, only 25 cents._
