thinks safety is good for
him personally and for his
fellow workers, and that it is
practical, he will realize it
pays off in manv ways that
are beneficial. The correct
attitude will then become a
part of him whether at work,
at home, on the highway, or
in recreational activities and
his chances for injury will be
greatly reduced.

A Honey Of A Hobby
Raising bees may be interesting
and profitable .. . but
it can also be dangerous.
Paul Quinton. Clinton Mills
Welder, has two hives or
houses. He states that the
fun of handling the honey
bees far outweighs the fear
of being stung by them.
To enable you to picture
approximately how many
bees a hive will accommodate,
consider these figures:
a hive commonly consists of
one Mother or Queen, from
A ''Down-to-earth"
Hobby
This man has worms?and
is proud of it. About seven
years ago. James Traynham.
Cloth Room Overseer at Clinton
Mills, read in a magazine
about a man who raised red
worms as a down-to-earth
sort of hobby. Jim was interested.
so he procured information
on the subject and
as a result he decided to try
it himself.
He bought a small herd of
100 "head" of worms from a
worm ranch in Tennessee,
built a concrete bed 10 feet
long behind his Lake Cabin,

area for that much livcstnrk

hobby is not as dirty as it
seems to most folks, because
the worm beds are filled with

600 to 800 males or drones,
and 15.000 to 20.000 working
bees or imperfectly developed
females. A good swarm
weighs six to eight pounds.
When you next enjoy the
taste of the sweet, viscid
material called "honey" consider
the number of bees it
took to make it and the work
involved before it got to your
dining table. It is estimated
bees must visit two million
or more flowers to make a
single pound of honey.
