An Annual Honey Day 



Director Williams of the "Booster" is agitating the matter of 

 having one day each year set aside as "Honey Day" and has suggest- 

 ed that we start something by observing November 25th as Honey 

 Day. The Review does not see anything to lose and there may 

 be something of benefit from such a move. We will see. Mr. 

 Williams is a hustler, but let me tell you friend beekeeper that one 

 man can do but little, and it rests with the individual beekeepers 

 to see that something is done in his or her immediate neighborhood. 

 Get something in your local and county paper about it; see to it 

 that your dealers are all supplied with honey for the occasion. Then 

 you should get out some signs to hang in the grocery windows. 

 They need not be an elaborate affair, perhaps printed by hand, 

 stating in a few words. "This is Honey Day ; Eat a little honey 

 today." In this way you may stimulate your local demand and 

 get people talking about honey. Remember, you cannot lose any- 

 thing by the venture and may and likely will make some gain in 

 the amount of honey consumed in your locality.
