Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Bee Keeping in Maryland
At the outset, this limited investigation in cooperation with the Eu reau of Entomology, it was necessary to secure the names of as many bee keepers in the state as possible, in order to communicate with them and thereby learn the status of the industry at that time. A report blank asking various questions concerning the apiary, was sent to each bee keeper, whose name could be secured. A list of the publications of the Bureau was also inclosed so that the bee keeper might indicate in which he was especially interested. By this means valuable information was secured, and made possible, a preliminary study of the needs and possibilities of the industry. The desire of the bee keepers for information, was indicated by their request for one or all of the publications oi' the Bureau of Entomology on Apiculture.
