SEES SOME GOOD IN QUEUES
London Physician Asserts That as
They Compel Women to Rise Early
They Are Benefit.

A good word for the queues at last |!
A high medical authority has just
given it as his opinion that the early
morning "queue habit" is having
quite a beneficial effect on the health
of some classes of the community.
Women who used to spend half the
morning in bed, then sitindoorspour-
ing over the morning paper or the
latest novel, are now up with the
proyerbial lark and out in the fresh
air before it has become heavily dust
laden. A wait in the queues may be
beneficial on fine springlike morn
ing, but would it be so exhilarating
standing in a couple Of inches Of
snow TO wait for half a pound Of
margarine? In any case the pluck
Of woman on the London front is
amazing. TO stand in q queue for
an hour or two, often with an infant
in arms, on the off chance Of pro-
curing supplies, is a task quite be-
yond the patient endurance Of the |
average man. Yet many Of our
brave women are doing it daily with
something more than stoicism. Out
side a South London butchers the |
laughter and gossip Of the waiting
crowd brought the proprietor from
his dugout. Opening the shop door
just wide enough to survey the merry
party, he exclaimed: "Now, then. |
you ladies, not 30 much chinwag.
This amt q mothers meoting"-

PAYS WELL TO STRAIN HONEY
Department Of Agriculture Urges All
Bee Keepers 10 Practice
Conservation.

Bee keepers are urged by Kenneth
Hawkins, bee specialist Of the Unit
ed States department Of agriculture,
to produce more honey in the ex-
tracted or strained form, instead Of
as comb honey Investigations Of
honey produced in Florida show that
too many bee keepers now market
honey m the comb, which lowers the
productive capacity Of bees. Tho en-
rrgy required M making 20 pounds
of honey /. consumed ia making one
pound ol bccswnX, and in selling
comb honey this bccsway is lost.
Where honey Is extracted from the
comb 10y uncapping cells and whlrl-
lng the tomb m a centrifugal ma
chine, the comb is left intact and
can be put back into the hive 10 be-
rclillcd with honey by the bees, saw
ing them the labor Of building new
comb, BeeswaS itself has no food
value and is lost when sold in comb
honey whereas with modern meth
ods It can be- used again aud again
by the bees. The department Of ag-
rlculture will send any bee keeper
instructions on changing cheaply
from the comb TO the extracted
honey method.
