Sometimes the best ways are the old ways. This publication contains good old fashioned information sourced from thousands of early Australian newspapers. This is really the story of how beekeepers managed their hives over the past one hundred or more years. Each article includes the year it was printed unfortunately through the passage of time, these good old fashioned tips are often lost to the modern generations. It is the aim of this book to ensure that at least some of this information and beekeeping experience is carried down the line to try and assist modern day beekeepers. Bees are suffering so much these days, and perhaps the solution to this problem, can be found in the past and in the pages of this book. We can only hope.
