Housewives Being Called Upon To Use More Honey Bv JANE EADS A I' NewsfeaUires WASHINGTON- The nation's housewives are being asked to make greater use of the produce of the country's largest group of agricultural workers some 250 bil lion busy bees. The honey bees, or "white man's flies," as they were called when first brought into this country from Europe, are considered es sential to the pollination of some 50 crops by the U. S. Department of Agriculture. They are more im portant in recent years, since the ground-nesting or solitary bee has been killed out by spray poisoning and clean cultivation of shrubbery where they used to thrive. But there's that honey the honey bee whips uo In addition to the pollination job. Last year, Harold J. Clay, principal marketing spe cialist for the II. S. Department of Agriculture, says some 234,000,000 pounds of honey were produced in this country by approximately 5,- 600.000 colonies of bees during the busy season. The department, under its diver sion assistance program, has been trying to help build up completely new outlets and uses for honey. There's a new honey baby food, for instance, the application for which has already been approved. It's in the form of a fortified crack er. There's a new honey ice cream, chocolate syrup, and nil kinds of different-flavored spreads. A program also is under way in the Kansas Stale Experimental Station to develop new uses for honey in the baking industry. This is partially financed by the Depart ment of Agriculture and the indus try. "It's a two-year project, but we hope that when it's completed a large number of outlets will be developed," Mr. Clay told me. Under its price support program, the department since mid-September also has taken ovt-r about six and a half million pounds of honey, for use mostly in the school lunch program. Through its honey export program, the department has as sisted exporters to move 11,000,000 pounds to about a dozen approved foreign countries. "In view of the surplus, wc are going slow in recommending an in crease in new colonies," said Mr. Clay, "hul about two billion bounc ing baby bees will be shipped to the nation's liOO.OOO beekeepers next March." These bees, he says, are produced in Alabama, Louisi ana. Texas, Mississippi and other southern and central states and In southern California Mr .and Mrs. Ralph Ensley have gone to Florida for an extended stay. During their absence Sher rill's studio will remain closed. They expect to return March 1. Forecast Fair For Weather woman LINESVILLE, Pa. - (AD -Retta M. Crumb, a gray-heared lady in her 60's, has been taking weather observations for 38 years. A modern thermometer and a rain measuring tube are all Miss Crumb needs. She forwards her re ports to weather bureau officials. Miss Crumb is not strictly a volun teer! "1 get the sum of 10 cents a day," she says.
