ABOUT STORING HONEY.

How IL Can lie Preserved for Several
Years. II Necessary.
In cases of overproduction and con.
sequent depreciation in prices. the
question arises: Can honey be KEEP, o~
stored for any considerable length OF
time without impairing its valus?"
With proper care and attention, comb
honey can be kept for several years il
desirable. During the winter it can be
stored in a dry basement room or cellar
in which the temperature varies little
during the cold season. Ii must be re-
moved as soon as the temperature out
OF doors rises above that in the room.
otherwise the warm air, coming in
contact with the surface OF the cool
honey, will cause drops Of moisture to
stand on the combs. and from that time
the honey will rapidly deteriorate.
Still more careful attention is re-
quired during spring and autumn
months when sudden changes are like
~ to occur. j must be kept in a warm
dry place. the temperature of which
should never go below sixty degrees.
A room warmed by base burner coal
stove Is good place If il is desira BILE
to keep the product over summer. it Is
best to store in an upper room on the
south side OF the house where the sun
will keep the room at the required tenn
perature. In short, keep the honey all
ways dry and uniformly at about eighty
degrees In this way a surplus Of the
product can be held until prices are
such that satisfactory profit can be
realized Apiarists who have been sue
cessful in storing honey find that it !
can be kept for several years and that
the quality is not only unimpaired, but
