This book contains a comprehensive guide to producing honey for
competitions, with information on preparing, exhibiting, standards, and
more. In addition to advice for the producer, there are useful hints as
to judges and judging, which will be of considerable value to those
managing shows. Although old, the information contained herein is
timeless, making this a great addition to collections of bee-keeping
literature. It is one not to be missed by the discerning collector. The
chapters of this book include: 'The Judge', 'The Exhibitor', 'Duties of
Secretaries and Stewards', 'Advice to Exhibitors - Advantages and
Inducements of Exhibiting', 'Points to be Observed, and Methods of
Judging', 'Judging by Points', 'Producing and Preparing Extracted
Honey', 'Producing and Preparing Comb Honey'... etcetera. We are proud
to republish this vintage book, now complete with a new and specially
commissioned introduction on homesteading.
