man, woman and child with about 2H
pounds year, which Is equivalent to
3 per cent Of the amount of sugar they
consume in normal times. Thus there
Is ample room for expansion Of both
the production and consumption. The
present use of honey In the home usu-
ally Is as substitute for jellies, jams,
and strip. 1t is little used in domestic
cooking or baking, but this use should
be increased. While honey within re-
cent years has sold at prices sufficient
ly low to justify Its use as substitute
for sugar, 1t Is rarely used in CONNER
cial food manufacturing except In the
making Of certain cakes which must
be kept moist for considerable time.
Usually, however, the supply of honey
Is so inadequate that most Of the crop
can be used as spread for bread.
With the use limited as II is, many
people in the United States rarely eat
honey, but 1t is evident that there
might be developed a ready sale for
honey as supplement to sugar, II
production were increased many times.
The amount Of nectar secreted BY
the untold myriads Of flowers, from
which bees make honey, is large be-
yond our comprehension. The total
amount of sugar In the nectar greatly
exceeds the amount of all sugar and
other sweets consumed by the Ameri-
can people. Unfortunately, from the
standpoint of man, this sugar cannot
all be collected and utilized as human
food. Even the honey bee, which is SO
often used as an example of industry,
consumes for its own food the larger
part of all that it collects.
Bookkeeping is, therefore, the means
of saving for human use small frac-
ton Of the vast store Of sugar secreted.
But the raw material is free and it's
conservation costs only small ex-
penditure for equipment and relatively
little In labor, and the honey crop could
be increased 10 or even 20 times with
out increasing the cost Of production,
per pound to an appreciate degree.

Wonders of Science.

Science does not even try to deal

of all matter into electrons Is divid-

minute portion of the metal sodium

comparison with one electron.

hour of night by the appearance Of
other stars on the horizon.
This ancient custom persisted
through long ages. Even after the in

communities in Europe and the United
States employed watchmen whose duty
1t was to make the rounds and call the
hours Of night.
