About
Nephi Ephraim Miller (born November 24, 1873 in Providence, Cache Valley, Utah) was a pioneer in the modern practice of migratory beekeeping. Miller gained an interest in bees as a child, while living on his father's farm. Miller was to inherit his father's farm and become a farmer, but his interest in bees grew. Miller traded a few bags of oats, left over from the harvest in exchange for seven bee colonies. As the colonies grew and blossomed into a burgeoning business, Miller quit his job on a wheat-threshing crew and devoted all his time to beekeeping. As the number of his colonies grew, so did the by-products such as beeswax. At the time many industries were learning the value of by-products that previously had been considered waste and were discarded. Miller wanted to learn how to effectively clean the wax and traveled to California where he met M. H. Mendelson, an experienced beekeeper who showed him how to render the beeswax into smooth cakes.
