  The 
  preamble 
  which 
  precedes 
  this 
  act 
  recites 
  the 
  fact 
  that 
  the 
  

   production 
  of 
  honey 
  is 
  an 
  honest 
  and 
  honorable 
  industry 
  in 
  this 
  

   State, 
  and 
  that 
  adulterations 
  with 
  inferior 
  sweets 
  not 
  gathered 
  

   by 
  bees 
  are 
  manufactured 
  and 
  sold 
  under 
  the 
  name 
  of 
  honey 
  to 
  

   the 
  great 
  injury 
  of 
  the 
  industry, 
  and 
  to 
  the 
  deception 
  of 
  the 
  con- 
  

   sumer, 
  if 
  not 
  to 
  the 
  injury 
  of 
  his 
  health.
