 It can be taken up almost anywhere that you happen to 

 be, in city or country, as honey is found plentifully in any 

 locality. Not much capital or land is needed to start. 

 Neither does it require an expensive outfit to begin.

 instrumental in helping some young person to a start in 

 life, or make life easier and more pleasant for some aged 

 person, it will be a source of gratification to the author and 

 his efforts will not have been in vain.
