What reading level is The Honey Bee Its Nature Homes And Products book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
41. BARBS OF A BEE'S STING, VERY HIGHLY MAGNIFIED.
Still, there is no doubt of the very formidable nature of the liquid, as may be generally seen in the amount of swelling and discomfort caused by the exceed- ingly minute portion injected by the sting of a bee.
The poison is secreted by tiny glands, from which it is conveyed, by tubes or ducts, into the reservoir, where it is stored ready for use. Chemically, the THE ABDOMEN. 127 liquid is said to have an acid reaction. Hence the application of... ammonia, and other alkaline solutions, will most effectually counteract its effects.
The sting of the queen differs from that of the worker, in having its barbs curved, instead of straight. This modification makes it a much less formidable im- plement. Moreover, it is very seldom employed. It is, indeed, almost impossible to make a queen sting the hand, even by great provocation. Almost the only circumstances in which her majesty employs the weapon are, first, for mortal combat with a rival, and second, for murdering, if permitted by the workers, the princesses before they emerge from the cells in which they have developed.
