S. of the Presbyterian Church in Canada, was held in Clinton on Tuesday, January 10th. ........................f ___ _ The President, Miss Jecke'll, of j Mrs. Lawson,’Auburn. Exeter, President, presided. The' meeting opened with devotional .ser­ vice conducted by Hensail Auxiliary, Mrs. Arnold read the Scripture les­ son and Mrs. B. Edwards offered a beautiful prayer. Miss Jeckell, in her address, brought a wonderful mes­ sage of encouragement and remind­ ed the members that membership in the W. M. S. involves three things. An understanding of the work, pray­ er for the work, and giving to its support. The economic conditions may effect the giving but not the prayer and study. God’s '’divine promise is, “Ask and it shall be giv­ en you; seek and ye shall find.” Throughout this year may every or­ ganization test the value of prayer, Miss sjeckell made special refer­ ence to the Mission Band Rally held in Seaforth and urged Auxiliary members to give sympathetic inter­ est and support to' Mission Band leaders. “What is ahead for 1933?” she asked. “Ye have not passed this way before”—we do not need tc travel the way alone, as our Guide has promised to go with us all the way. Let us concentrate on some worthwhile purpose, for the year is ful 1 of opportunity. One of the sages was asked to say what was the hardest thing for a man to do. He replied, “To use and employ a man’s time well.” Amos R. Wells says “Time is a wonderful thing,” Miss Jeckell continued. “All men have it and all have precisely the same amount of it. The gift is given little at a time; it must be used at once or it is withdrawn. And if it is used wisely as it is given', it will make men ' marvellously rich—-rich with the only wealth that lasts.” Tc some the year may not look very bright, and perhaps this little poem sent by Mrs. Jonathan Goforth may be helpful to them as it was to her. Is This the Right Road Home? Is this the right road home, O Lord! The clouds are dark and still; The stony path is hard to tread, Each step brings some fresh ill, I thought the way would brighter grow, And that the sun With warmth would glow, And joyous songs from free hearts flow, Is this the -right road home?

A group of farmers shopping in the grocery store were busy talking and Tom was listening in as usual he asked; “What have you in mind?’ “Look at our butcher, for an in­ stance,” said one. “Study what he has in his display case. He has some cuts there he sells for a good figure Notice that he'is quite busy, despite the fact that farmers are killing a good deal of their pwn meat and are peddling a. good deal -of it about the town. If you notice he cuts his meat into the neatest shapes you ever saw. More than that, he cuts away all the meat that is not at- p tractive ip appearance. He even ;i takes some meat‘that is a little too fat, and cuts away some of it, dress­ es what is left into fancy roasts and such saleable offerings. A farmer came in to him the other day with a cut of meat he simply could not sell. The butcher hung it up till the er had gone, recut the meat, little trimming and sold the before the farmer was out of He paid attention to what caught the eye and pocketbook of his cus­ tomers. Further, he did not try to sell a hard-luck story along with his meat.” “A hard-luck story!

The package was at­ tractive, showing up the best colors of the honey. The containing portion of the package was neat in appear­ ance and made of a material that would not allow any honey to escape even should it break through the comb. The whole was covered with a neat partition of cellophane which allowed the customer to see the hon­ ey but which excluded all foreign matter. What struck Tom was the fact that the honey in the comb was so cut that each cut was hermetical­ ly sealed, with the result that the little packages remain entire, not a drop of the honey escaping from the comb. This method o;f packaging enables the hotel or restaurant, or the homemaker, to serve honey with­ out any guest is tractive anyone. of the usual mussiness. Each given .his helping in the at- package without loss to A Fine Food By far the great majority of the people like comb honey. Honey is a good natural food. It is produced in abundance in Canada. The market for this product is steadily growing. Hitherto the chief objection to honey as a food has been its mussiness and the consequent waste. Here is a method of handling honey that is full of promise. Tom was curious and found his way to the apiary of F. W. Abbott, of Exeter, the one man it seems who is master of the art of marketing honey in this fashion. “The cutting part of the process is patented,” Mr. Abbott explained “We bake these packages into three sizes, a largo size, a medium size and the small size that you saw in the grocers. It has cost us a good deal of motley to get this line far.” “You cut the ordinary honey tions Into four,” I said. 'We do not use the ordinary section, tlier, we tion in a special way.

Then we have the bee bird and the -sparrow. Both of these; birds simply eat the bees. The bear is a serious enemy when he is about Our honey frames are special sizes and the whole honey-making process is carefully watched, as we must have our sections uniform and free from all unusual formations, such as may frequently be observed In honey sections.” “And what about sales?” “We find t,he honey we offer in these packages is in keen demand We can sell all we can produce and then we do not meet the demand Large hotels and th© large restaur­ ants, as well as first-class grocers are anxious for what we have to of­ fer.” “About your hives and frames,” I asked, “We buy the lumber and manu­ facture our own supplies all through We find the honey business required economy. Our turnover aoes not al­ low foi’ waste.” “The bee business must run along conservative lines? The bees have of job- been on the job for a considerable ough and radical treatment, length Of tlinO onaminc Imv/x hone?” “There’s something in that, but I find that we must carry on on somewhat different lines every year. I mean that the honey production and care and the culture each year differs from all the years that have gone before. No matter what one has seen or done, there always is a surprise awaiting. Each year differs, hut the bear is not found in these from another. Talk about learning' parts,.................. ‘ - - - the business! I sometimes think it can’t be learned, there is so much that one has to work up each year. I do not see how anyone can tell an­ other how to manage the bee bus- ines. One may think he knows how to do a certain thing only to find that each situation has something new about it.’ “What about foul brood?” ed. “That’s a miserable thing, is no difficulty in detecting have good success but unless one is experienced, the found a falling off in the price of only thing to do is to burn up the honey. I ask- There it. I in treating it, Another enemy is a lack of cleanliness. The bee must be kept clean. There is no room for slack­ ness when it comes to this line of work. Everything must be done in season. Whole yards have been wiped out simply because their own­ ers thought the bees could wait his pleasure. Then there is something very exacting about knowing when the honey is ready for certain cesses.” “What about the markets?” “Like nearly everyone who something to sell, the beemen have pro- •has able to sell our honey quite readily. We have been obliged to do out share in salesmanship, but that is to be looked for in any case.” “What about the British market for honey? I have heard that we have spoiled that market by offer­ ing the Britisher an article in that line that we did not want?” I re­ marked. “As far as I know, we’re getting our share of the British trade. For myself, I depend pretty largely on Canadian trade. My way of offer­ ing has helped me in that particular. However, ,1 understand that the hee men have got rid of their supplies and that we’re gaining .ground. Mr. Abbott’s invention bids fair to work a revolution in me honey busi­ ness. Gne cannot but wonder if simi­ lar inventions, each applicable in its own sphere will not be the way out of Our present difficulty. Farming is a conservative occupation. For it there must come a new day, as the old methods of marketing have not proven equal to the present strain.
