"Speed" counts for nothing, in

farther you will get from the desir-

BEE CULTURE FOR SOLDIERS
Federal Board Encourages Disabled
Men to study Beekeepins

from cane for commercial purposes
much of the sweet in food came from
honey. Shortage of sugar during the
war restored honey to it's former popu-
larity, and this increased demand served
to raise the price. For these reasons
the production of honey promises to be
profitable business.
The Federal Board for Vocational
Education encourages the disabled SOL
dier to take up the subject of beekeep-
ing. The work is light and the hours
short. The investment requires little
money and the financial returns are
good. ea

It was not their purpose to keep it in operation indefinitely. but until such time as 1t would appear to the city commission to be a public necessity.
 About 16 children are now being cared for there daily and that many mothers upon whom the care of their babies had devolved are now able to earn a living, knowing that during the hours of their employment their chill dren are being well cared for When the mothers are unable to take the babies to the nursery or to take them home, on account of distance. the chil- dren are gathered up by automobiles and are delivered at home in the even ing.
 The expense of the nursery is about $15O a month. The children are not only well cared for, but they arc given a nourishing mid day meal If the mother is unable to pay for this. there is no charge. But in many cases the mothers prefer to pay, and a small charge of 10 or 15 cents is made.
