 should he so stated when it is placed on the market.
 The sage honey from California Is pro nounced by experts an example of the pnr- est, best favored and most consistent graoe produced in the United States.
 What is known as the Holy Land bee was first brought to the United States from Pales tine by MT. 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 exportaton of bees from Pal estine, famous in ancient times for its honey the Turkish government became deeply inter- ested in the industry and imposed eXorb tant tax upon the aparies.
 Honey is used in the far eastern countries in the manufacture of hydromel, a 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 manufactur- ers who about 60 per cent. of all the product that is exported from the American re- pubics. It is estimated that over half of the worlds production is employed in the manufac- ture of candy and medicinal preparations and 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 a 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 var cities 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 of the mysteries of the baking industry. attributed by the natives of Latin America to Yankee cleverness."
 Not many industries offer as many attrac tions as apiculture. It may be taken up by agricutursts speciality as Q side line A small capital only is required to start the enterprise and returns measured and cer- 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 pershable nor sub ject to a marked depreciation in value.
 Practically all of the wild honey is shipped

where it is elected into the comb. They also construct the cells of the comb from a wax secretion in the honey and feed all the other bees. The food of the young bees is called beebread and consists of small pellets pre- pared from the pollen of flowers Honey is fed to the adult drone bees.
 It is interesting to note that the amount of honey involved in the secretion of pound of wax is muchdebated question among stu dents of bees. the various estimates ranging all the way from two to twenty pounds
 It is conservatively estimated that over 300, O0O tons of honey are produced in the world each year, of which the American republics yield about two-thirds. This quantity put up in standard combs of IA ounces each, would, if the combs were placed side by side endwise make line 50,000 miles long, or twice the cir conference of the earth at the equator
 According to Latreille, the European species of bees predominate in America; but it is evi- dent that the stingless variety of bee is a na- tive of South and Central America and Mexico, where honey has been gathered by the natives for many centuries and that many of the other varieties found were introduced from China, Japan and Palestine, as well as from European countries.
 When the pilgrims landed at Plymouth in 1920 honey not to be found in that part of the country and bees were consequently im- ported from England in order to meet the re quirements of the time, but the first system attic keeping of bees in the United States was probably established at Newbury Mass.
 In a bulletin of the United States depart ment of agriculture it is stated that the inn portance of the industry of municipal mo- ment to the extent of holding out to one John Bales, who was then living in what is now Hingham Mass, an inducement to come to Newbury for the purpose of teaching the set tiers how to make hives and to care for bees.
 Since that time steady advances have been made in the establishment of systematic bee culture in the United States. Bees have been imported from all parts of the world and the industry has reached such an extent that the annual average yield of honey amounts to about $20 900 900 and beeswax about S2,000, 000.
 The United States imports annually about 2,500,O00 pounds of honey and about 750,OO0 pounds of beeswax, about 95 per cent of which comes from Cuba, Mexico, Haiti Salvador, Do- minican Republic and Venezuela; and all of this regardless of the fact that according to the census about 100000 bee keepers, or one in every 120 of the entire population. are en- gagged in the industry throughout the United States.
 The passage of various pure-food laws and the establishment of a rigid inspection by many of the importing countries have made the marketing of adulterated honey almost an

and metallic vessels dramatically sealed, and In an excellent state of preservation, among the prehistoric ruins.
 The finding of honey among the Aztec ruins establishes the fact beyond all question that bees were known in Mexico long before the days of Cortez, although scientists have at tempted to dsprove repeatedly the theory that bees of any species were native to America.
 This valuable article of commerce may be described the sweet sirup or nectar derived from the bees and other insects, which gather it from trees, plants flowers. It is both vegetable and animal in origin and contains about 20 per cent. of water, 75 per cent of re- ducing sugars, such as dextrose and levulose, twenty-five one-hundredths per cent of ash. and the balance of other components. Honey Is variable in color and quality, the product of one district excelling that of another, and is commercially classified as follows: First, combed. or that which is contained in the cells of comb: second, extracted or that which has been separated from the uncrushed comb by centrifugal force or gravity; third. strained, or that which has been removed from the crushed comb by straining or other means. In color the best grade runs from clear, almost color less to pale yellow and the flavor depends upon the nature of the tree, plant or flower from which it is gathered. With age, honey turns considerably darker in color. but both honey and comb will keep indefinitely without suffering decomposition.
 The honey bee is usually found in swarms of from 5000 to 75,000. and is divided into three distinct classes: The queen. or female; the drone, or male, and the worker or neuter. Each hive contains but one queen, which propagates the species frequently laying eggs at the rate of 2,000 a day. Upon the death of the queen young neuter is selected from the colony, its cell enlarged and the food changed. The neuter then becomes a queen bee and is mated with the drones. who afterward destroyed by the workers
 Although the average life of the queen GOV CTS a period of three years of usefulness, it is considered advisable to annually restock each colony with new queen. The systematic rearing of queen bees and the improvement of the breed are considered the most important branches of apiculture. It is also important in breeding queens that the socalled "hybrids," or mismated queens should not be employed, account of their inability to produce young bees of desirable and consistent character Selections have been made from the various types of bees and an attempt made to combine all the good qualities of each species, but yet it is quite impossible to find the bee that is stingless and at the same time the largest producer of honey and wax and the most pro life in breeding. It appears that each species possesses certain distinctions of and is
