M AN Y USES
FOR HONEY
LISTED
By Hannah Wing.
An Acknowledged Authority on
All Matters Pertaining to
Household Management

THE production of honey is
i not only increasing but, as
better methods of bee culture are
developed better grades of honey
are reaching the. market. Varie-
ties of honey depend upon the
locality in which it is produced
and the flower crops which the
bees find available.
Thus one finds in some sec
tions clover honeys that may be
made from sweet. alsike or white
clover each with its distinctive
flavor. In other sections bass
wood, wild raspberry, willowherb,
golden rod. wild aster and BUCK
wheat flavors are popular. The
most desirable honey, however,
as well as the most reliable to
buy are those which have been
graded so that one is sure that
the quality is uniform and OF a
high standard.
Honey may he purchased in
comb. candied form. or strained.
The strained or extracted honey
is best when blended. Glover
honeys and those made from the
orange blossoms of Florida and
California are much lighter in
color than buckwheat honey, for
instance. They have mild,
sweet flavor Of the flowers from
which they come while buck
wheat and other honeys have
more acid flavor and are much
darker in color. a blend of these
h0neys can be made which has
most pleasing flavor.
Aside from the Queens bread
any honey this sweet is eaten
with hot biscuits-a really good
dessert for cold weather, by the
way, with griddle cakes and muf-
fins. Its individual flavor ia much
