Description
Excerpt from The Book of the Honey Bee
Beekeeping is also a centre, a starting point, from which many delightful roads radiate; and creates a stimulus for increased knowledge, not only of the habits and life history of the little creatures who so delightfully minister both to our pleasure and profit, but also of the truly marvellous part they (with other allied insects) play in the economy of nature.
Probably no other pursuit is calculated to bring one into intimate touch with nature at so many points as is beekeeping.
To the gardener, the fruit-grower especially, bees are an absolute necessity.
