Excerpt from The Book of Nature Study, Vol. 2 Over two hundred species of bees are found in this country. The lower members of the group do not surpass the social wasps in the complexity of their structure, and fall distinctly below them in matters of domestic economy. The females construct simple tubular nests in the earth, or in walls or stems of plants, and in these they rear a few young, which are nourished on the pollen and nectar of flowers, but never upon animal food. Each female is entirely responsible for her own house and Offspring; there are no workers (sterile females), but simply fertile females and males. In habits they Vary greatly some merely excavate burrows in the soil, others construct their nests of mud, Of woolly fibres, or of pieces neatly cut from leaves of rose trees, sallows, privet and other plants, employing wall crevices, door-locks, spaces beneath roof-slates or tiles, or holes in the earth or in trees as safe hiding-places for their young. Others again build no nest, but cuckoo-like deposit their eggs in the nests formed by other species. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Nature-Study Review, Vol. 1: Devoted to All Phases of Nature-Study in Elementary Schools; January, 1905 In attempting to frame a definition of nature - study I may be undertaking something which cannot be accomplished to the satis faction of every one, and yet all will agree, I think, that the sub j ect must be more sharply and clearly stated if we would have it productive of the most good in our schools. One has only to look over the literature of nature-study to see how varied are the standpoints of different teachers with reference to the subject. Some teachers hold that the chief object of nature - study or science, for they use the terms interchangeably, is the acquisition of facts, and consequently fill the course of study with a mass of materials which are to be studied in a scientific manner. Other teachers hold that the subject is valuable chiefly for its training of the mind and senses, and for its power to arouse an interest in and love for the world about us. With the first class the sub ject - matter and its manner of presentation are all important, with the second class the subject-matter is considered immaterial as long as' the desired training of the senses is brought about. The extremes of these two schools are far apart, and represent radi cally different standpoints, but there are many intermediate views held.

Excerpt from Studies of Nature, Vol. 1 of 5 A man who has himself derived pleasure, or instruction, from the perusal of a Book, naturally wishes to have these advantages communicated to others; for we presume, that what has singularly affected ourselves, is likely to produce a similar impression on the rest of Mankind. I have read few Performances with more complete satisfaction, and with greater improvement, than the Studies of Nature: in no one have I found the useful and the agreeable more happily blended.

Excerpt from The Book of Nature Study, Vol. 6 First, as regards sunshine and temperature, bring out the fact that on any given day it is always hotter in the sun than out of it; that our hottest days are those when the sun Shines longest (roughly speaking, that is) that it is colder at night when the sun does not shine than in the day when it does, and so arrive at the deduction that the sun is the great source of heat. What then becomes of the sun on cloudy and foggy days? The teacher will be wise to devote much time to the answering of this question, for the fact of the sun's presence in the sky on dull and Cloudy days, behind the clouds, is by no means clearly realised by children and uninstructed people.
