The American Bee Journal 1881 Vol 17 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The American Bee Journal, 1881, Vol. 17 The seeds are borne in pods much the size and appearance of the black mus tard. It blooms early in the spring, and continues in bloom until frost.

Excerpt from American Bee Journal, Vol. 9: July, 1873 How much interest was felt in relation to the cause which occasioned the disastrous losses of our bees in the winter of 1871 - 2, and yet but few, if any of us, were prepared for the fact that, the winter which has just closed, (that of '72 and would far surpass the previous one in point of fatality, even, in many instances, devastating entire apiaries; and I greatly regret to state that, in a radius of fifty miles from the point at which I write, that from one-half to two-thirds of our colonies have perished.
