Abstract
HAVING chosen such a title as that of “Modern Bee-Keeping,” the author might be expected to show familiarity both with modern apicultural practice and also with the recently ascertained facts of science. He repeats, however, without comment, the old statement that Braula caca is pupiparous, even though the egg and larva have been figured by several observers, and the damage done by the larval tunnels in the cappings of honey has actually been illustrated in an English- speaking bee journal.
