PREFATORY NOTE

Most of this that I have written about bees is true: what is not, doesnot pretend to be. Some of the true part sounds almost like adescription of what human life might in some respects be, if certainsocial movements of to-day were followed out to their logical extreme. Isuppose that in this likeness lies the moral of the book.
