should be 80 stated when it is placed on the
market.
The sage honey from California is pro-
nounced by experts as an example of the pur-
est, best favored and most consistent grade
produced in the United States
What is known as the Holy Land bee was
first brought to the United States from Pales-
tine by a Mr.. Howard, in 1884, since which
time the species can be found in many parts
of America and is regarded by apiculturists
as one of the best honey producers. About
the time of the expectation Of bees from Pal
estine, famous in ancient times for its honey,
the Turkish government became deeply inter-
ested in the industry and imposed an exorbi-
tant tax upon the apiaries.
Honey is used in the far eastern countries in
the manufacture of hydromel, popular and
most intoxicating beverage having an agree
able flavor closely resembling cider. Alcohol
has also been distilled from honey, but not to
any great extent.
Many of the large manufacturers of candy
in the United States complain that they have
great difficulty in purchasing sufficient honey
to meet their requirements owing to the recent
and enormous demand of German manufacture
ers who secure about 60 per cent of all the
product that is exported from the American re-
publics. It is estimated that over half Of the
worlds production is employed in the manufac-
new uses are being found for honey and bees
wax almost daily.
In the manufacture Of biscuits and fancy
cakes in the United States, Germany and Eng
land honey Is extensively employed, both on
account Of its usefulness as base in sweet
ening and its remarkable immunity from or
ganic change. This answers the question which
has been matter Of great speculation by those
unacquainted with the inside secrets of the
baking industry, as to how the numerous vari-
cites Of sweet crackers and cakes kept on
hand" through long periods of time remained
apparently fresh, in the little village stores
scattered throughout the country districts.
The art of making fancy crackers that would
keep indefinitely" has for many years been
considered one Of the mysteries of the baking
industry, attributed by the natives of Latin
America to Yankee cleverness."
Not many industries offer as many attrac-
tons as agriculture. It may be taken up by
agriculturists a specially or as a side line.
A small capital only is required to start the
enterprise and returns are measured and GER
tain if ordinary care is taken in the selection
Of the location of the apiaries and consistent
management Of the bees maintained Further
more, good market is always afforded for the
product, which is neither perishable nor sub
ject to a marked depreciation in value.

with men breadwinners, giving an
equal wage for equal work; that it
would mitigate the horrors of the
under world, where women are forced
to go. because they cannot make a
living wage: that it would do away
with humiliations and injustices IN
hicted upon them simply because they
are women.
Mrs. Jones argued adversely, and
each time she scored a point her fol-
lowers pounded the floor with their UNI
brellas and clapped until their hands
ached. Her arguments were met with
cold silence by the suffragists, but Mrs.
Kelly's thrusts and her array of facts
regarding the economic and Industrial
status of women they applauded We
hemently.

The speaker then gave recipe for
improving Woman's industrial condi-
ton. She said what they need is not
the vote, but access to theaters and
concert halls, free seats at lectures, a
general social uplift, clean homes and
mutual aid.
IF every one of you women she
said, would do one act of kindness
each day for one wage-earning woman,

ANTl-SUFFRAGISTS Do NOT
WANT COOKS TO VOTE
Mrs. Florence Kelly Declares Poorer
Glasses Will Be Helped by

PHILADELPHIA. March 5.-shall
our cooks vote?
Some of the anti-suffragists don't
think it would be ladylike for a self
respecting woman to go to the polls
with her cook but the suffragists say
cooks are women, they have wrongs
that must be righted; ergo, the ballot
for the cook.
At a spirited meeting of suffragists
and antis at the New Century club,
under the auspices of the Limited Suf-
frage league, of which Miss Mary Win
sor is president, the moot matter of
the political enfranchisement of cooks
came up.
Mrs. Gilbert E. Jones of New York,
president of the National Federation
for the Civic Education of Women,
threw down the gauntlet to Mrs. Flor
ence Kelly, secretary of the National
Consumers league, when she said;
"Twenty-five per cent of the six mil
lion wage earning women in the
United States are domestic servants.
Do you think they are qualified to
vote? I have met cooks and cooks, but
7 never yet have met a cook whom |
would wish to see go to the polls
Mrs. Jones enumerated the percent
age of women in other occupations,
mostly menial and she referred to the
unintelligent 10 per cent who are not
even recognized by their names, but
who are ignominiously numbered,
Quick Defense of the Cook
This was too much for Mrs. Kelly,
whose life has been devoted to ale
waiting the distress and studying the
conditions of women in industrial
work.
II hold a brief" she said, for the
cook and for the numbered laundresS
I would like to tell Mrs. Jones that the
woman whose friendship I am proudest
of. who is the sturdiest and most he
roic Of my friends, is a cook a woman
who has worked valiantly all her life,
who has educated her boys who owns
a home upon which she pays taxes,
who is as good a citizen as any man
know"
Tumultuous applause rose from the
suffragists. The anti-suffrage faction
of society women, assembled under the
leadership of Mrs. j. Gardner Cassatt,
subsidized ingloriously while Mrs. Kelly
continued.
II also hold a brief for the laundress.
a nameless atom in the industrial
world, who is not designated by her
own name but by her number; who Is
none the less a woman, none the less
citizen because she is forced by her
employer, and allowed by the law
which she has no hand in making, to
work from eighteen to twenty-four
hours a day"
Then Mrs. Kelly told what the ballot
would do for these 100000 working
women, only 100000 of whom Mrs
Jones declared are educated and cap
able of using political enfranchisement,
if they had it.
She said it would give them a voice
in making laws which affect their own
and their children's lives; that it
would put them on a financial footing
