British Columbia's honey crop of 225 tons recorded a 3u j)r -rent in crease over 11U7. And tho growing of honey rich crops has scarcely bo gun. Western honey brings three to eleven cents a pound more than east ern honey because of its high quality and fine flavor. Farmers have found that the long sunny days which give e:tra weight to their plump har4 wheat also keep thy honey bee hum ming long hours, with profit to its keeper. In other localities, notably In the northwest, tho middle west and the east, bee raising has offered golden rewards which recent war needs have multiplied. 4M ..Women Who Want a Prctlcai 'Corlet Naturally Think prst-of NEMO : So thoroughly have Nemo Corsets estab lished a la i -.ition for piactical style and b all hor,a.e' that a great many women will wear no other Corset.
