PACKING HONEY IN CARTONS
inexpensive Covering Serves TO Pro
tect Comb From Dust and Pre-
vents Marring In Handling.

The best grades Of comb honey
should be put on the market in neat
ly printed cartons. They are great
convenience for the dealer, they serve
to keep honey free from dust and
also prevent marring the delicate
comb when handling from the grocery
to the consumers kitchen.
Cartons are so inexpensive, and so
useful, that 1t is surprising that more
of the best comb honey is not put on
the market in them.
or course, those using cartons should
be very careful to see that only the
most perfect sections Of honey are
put into them. A honey.purchaser
will seldom buy cartoned honey the
second time II she has been once de
ceived-by getting. for instance, a
partly filled comb in carton; or, per

Cartons should be used more exteD.

Hay Farmlnu.

Hay farming Is not poor industry
If one knows how t. raise It and then
how to market It to the best adyan'
tage so many have gone into other
kinds Of farming, and 80 many daires
now using up all the hay raised IN
their neIghborhood, that the competI'
ton Is far less in the city markets
than formerly, says the Farm and Fire
side The Idea that hay raising Is
oyhauslng the soil and quickly runs
down farm Is an exploded fallacy
Nothing robs the soil so quickly as
continual cropping Of timothy hay. but
when the land Is sown to clover every
alternate or third season, with the
second crop under, the soil Is not rob
bed, but actually benefited Taking a
second crop Of clover from the same
field IN one season generally runs
down HE SOIL especially If repeated
more than one season.

Permanent Muscular strenath.

There is this to be borne in mind in
these days when so many young men
are giving so much attention to physi-
cal development, in gymnastic4 and
athletic exercises, that there cannot
be permanent muscular strength where
there is not blood strength.
Hoods Sarsaparilla gives blood
strength, promotes digestion and as
similation, and builds up the whole
system.
