Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Some Winter Days in Iowa I am glad to have the privilege, thus in advance, of looking over Mr. Lazell's delightful essays. He has surely a gift in this sort of thing. We are grateful to the man who shows us what he sees in Nature, but more to the man who like our present author shows us how easy and blessed it is to see for ourselves. Mr. Lazell reminds me of Thoreau and Emerson, and I can suggest no better foreword than the passage from the last named author, from the Method of Nature, as follows: "Every earnest glance we give to the realities around us with intent to learn, proceeds from a holy impulse and is really songs of praise. What difference can it make whether it take the shape of exhortation, or of passionate exclamation, or of scientific statement? These are forms merely. Through them we express, at last, the fact that God has done thus or thus." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Synopsis The Wintering of Bees in Ontario (Classic Reprint) by : Morley Pettit
Download or read book The Wintering of Bees in Ontario (Classic Reprint) written by Morley Pettit and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-03-22 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Wintering of Bees in Ontario The beekeepers of Ontario lose from 10 per cent. To 50 per cent. Of their colonies through winter loss and f' spring dwindling every year. The colonies which survive, being subjected to the same conditions, are weakened in population and vitality in the same proportion. This is an enormous waste which, if applied to other live stock, would be ascribed to some epidemic. The majority of bee keepers, however, take the smaller loss as a matter of course, and the larger with plans to do better next year. It would be surprising that the heaviest loss usually occurs in the southern counties, if pne did not remember human nature, and the fact that bees will winter there after a fashion in an average winter with out protection. They are, therefore, not protected, and the periodical old fashioned winter takes off 75 per cent. 'of them, completely destroying many whole apiaries. The bee literature of America for a generation and more has been filled with theories on the wintering of bees and the causes of loss. Many of these theories have since been exploded or ignored; but, as a result of countless experiments and a free interchange of ideas, successful beekeepers have developed methods of winter ing founded on principles which recent scientific investigation is proving to be in the main correct. It would be useless, and often unfair, to attempt to give credit to the originators of different methods or ideas. Like hive-nectar in a honey-flow, these are free currency amongst bee-keepers who read and attend conventions, and when credit is given, the inventor is liable to be ignored and the copyist made famous. It has been well said that bees cannot be managed by rule, as they never do things invariably. No doubt, if we understood all the factors of environment and the influence of each on bee-behavior, we could say that, given such and such conditions, and bees will behave so and so. In wintering bees in Ontario, bee keepers follow two opposite plans. Isome place their bees in a repository, such as a cellar underground, where they attempt to keep them inactive by trying to con trol all the factors of environment, such as light, temperature, ventilation, etc, until such time as the season and weather permit them to resume their summer activities. Others protect the hives on their summer stands, leaving the bees free to come out and fly whenever weather permits. Both of these plans, when carried out intelligently, have been found to yield good results, and while much is yet to be explained in this difficult problem successful wintering has been more nearly reduced to a rule of thumb than almost any other branch of bee management.

Book Synopsis Wintering Bees in Canada (Classic Reprint) by : C. B. Gooderham
Download or read book Wintering Bees in Canada (Classic Reprint) written by C. B. Gooderham and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-20 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Wintering Bees in Canada Canada every winter large numbers of colonies which a little more care and better management would have saved. In addition, many more are so seriously weakened, also through lack of care, that they fail to build up in time for the main honey flow. It is far better to give the bees the necessary care in the fall than it is to find empty and depleted hives in the spring and making the bees that survive spend the best part of the summer in filling them again. The remarkably high yields of first-grade honey in most parts of Canada should offer enough financial inducement to prepare the bees for the winter with the utmost care. To put off the preparation until the cold weather has arrived is to court disaster, because exposing the bees to cold early in the winter and disturbing them during the cold weather are injurious. The long, cold winter in most parts of Canada is not so hard on bees as might be imagined; and in some respects wintering is easier than in a milder climate. This is because the bees rest more completely during the winter months instead of wearing themselves out with useless activity. Few conditions are harder on the bees than very mild weather during the late winter when they wear themselves out and die by the thousands trying to raise a little brood and flying out to visit the early flowers in chilly and changeable weather. These conditions occur to some extent on Vancouver island. In most parts of Canada, however, the winter rest continues until sometime in April. Then come quickly the long warm days; the bees build up rapidly; and the colonies become strong in a remarkably short time.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Heat Production of Honeybees in Winter In considering the circumstances on this last day-of the experi ment with bees it is interesting to recall observations made in the study Of the effect Of ventilation on men, that the sensations produced by bad 7air are not experienced when the air is stirred. If this indicates an actual cliflerence in physiological conditions in the di mer ent circumstances, then it is not inconceivable that something analo gous to this was true Of the bees on this day. The stirring Of the air when the circulation was resumed may have served to remove some cause Of depression that was e mective when the circulation was stopped.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Pilgrims of Iowa Mr. Turner closed his work at Denmark in 1868, but he did not close his life until 1885; so that I was his contemporary here in Iowa for seventeen years. I knew personally all the other patriarchs, Gaylord, Reed, Holbrook and Emerson, though Gaylord and Holbrook had left the state before I came. Before 1868, Hutchinson and Spaulding of the Band had died, and Alden and Ripley had returned to New England. The other seven of the eleven were still associated with Iowa, although just then E. B. Turner was in Missouri; all these I knew well, and some of them intimately. With Ephraim Adams and Salter, I was in close association for more than forty years. (i protest, however, in spite of many statements to the contrary, that I was not a member of the Band!) Meet ing Brother Adams for the first time at a joint session of the Mitchell and Garnavillo Associations, at mcgregor in October of 1868, I said, Well, I never will get acquainted with that man, so quiet, so stately and so sedate! But I did get acquainted with him. He gave me the right hand of fellowship at my ordination, and he became to me the brother of all the brethren; and he came into my life as no other man in Iowa has done. He selected me for his successor at Decorah, but the church did not ratify the election! He did not choose me as his successor in the office of superintend ent, but I am sure he was glad to have me there. Tears will come now as I think of the wounding of his dear, sensitive heart in that he was permitted to lead the forces only to the borders of the Promised Land of self-support.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a time of climate change and mass extinction, how we garden matters more than ever: “An outstanding and deeply passionate book.” —Marc Bekoff, author of The Emotional Lives of Animals Plenty of books tell home gardeners and professional landscape designers how to garden sustainably, what plants to use, and what resources to explore. Yet few examine why our urban wildlife gardens matter so much—not just for ourselves, but for the larger human and animal communities. Our landscapes push aside wildlife and in turn diminish our genetically programmed love for wildness. How can we get ourselves back into balance through gardens, to speak life's language and learn from other species? Benjamin Vogt addresses why we need a new garden ethic, and why we urgently need wildness in our daily lives—lives sequestered in buildings surrounded by monocultures of lawn and concrete that significantly harm our physical and mental health. He examines the psychological issues around climate change and mass extinction as a way to understand how we are short-circuiting our response to global crises, especially by not growing native plants in our gardens. Simply put, environmentalism is not political; it's social justice for all species marginalized today and for those facing extinction tomorrow. By thinking deeply and honestly about our built landscapes, we can create a compassionate activism that connects us more profoundly to nature and to one another.
