Honey as a Health-Food 



This is a 16-page honey-pamphlet in- 

 tended to help increase the demand for 

 honey. The first part of it contains a 

 short article on "Honey as Food," writ- 

 ten by Dr. C. C. Miller. It tells where 

 to keep honey, how to liquefy it, etc. 

 The last part is devoted to "Honey-Cook- 

 ing Recipes" and "Remedies Using Hon- 

 ey." It should be widely circulated by 

 those selling honey. The more the peo- 

 ple are educated on the value and uses 

 of honey, tlie more honey they will buy. 



Prices, prepaid — Sample copy for a 

 J-cent stamp ; 50 copies for 90 cents ; 

 100 copies for $1.50; 250 copies for 

 $3.00; 500 for $5.00; or 1000 for $9.00.
