MARKETING OF HONEY
GREAT BRITAIN’S SUPPLIES. It is stated in a report by the Im perial Economic Committee that tne consumption of Empire honey should be encouraged, and it has recommended research to determine whether such consumption could not also be urged on the ground that honey possesses special nutritive value. Great improvements have been effected in recent years in the marketing of .honey, but further improvements ar« possible, especially in regard to the manner in which Jamaican honey is prepared for and sent to market. Beekeeping is a minor occupation, and though research work is in progress in different parts of the Empire, large funds for its prosecution are not readily forthcoming. The committee expresses the view that the producer in the United Kingdom might, by suitable methods of packing and advertising, find a remunerative market for the disposal at good prices of an increased quantity of honey in the comb.
