Over 44 million pounds of live and dressed birds were shipped out of Canada. The principal market was the United Stat- es, and during the year 29.6 million pounds of live poultry and 13.1 million pounds of dressed birds moved across the border, The British West Indies took over half a million pounds of dressed poultry, and the new prov- ince of Newfoundland just under half a million. Belgium and Switzerland were the heaviest European buyers. Altogether, the trade was worth nearly $20 million. any. Boy, the lobby of that place was bigger than any barn I've ever seen, People were moving around in all dir, ettions and typewriters were clicking and clacking and nobody seemed to want to pay any attention. I nodded and smiled and beckoned and waved and it was remarkable the way they didn't see me at any time. Finally, one woman took pity on me and asked Inc what I wanted, She then directed me to the elevator and the third floor. I was coining to have a new idta of the size of the trust and loan business, The third fluor was just as busy as the first. I supposed they stored their money on the second floor. I asked for A. L. Anderson and the girl looked surpris- ed, ,'There's no A. L. Anderson here. What did you want to see about?" "But I've. got a letter from him", I replied as I fished out the letter I had received about getting busy and making a payment on the mortgage. She just smiled and took the letter with her. A. L. Anderson turned out to be a woman of about fifty with hair that seemed to have been dyed red or something and looked closer to green than anything. She didn't mince any words. She just flipped up a file appar- atus and told me I owed so Much and so many day over due and the amount of extra interest and that was that. I reached in my pocket for my pocket book and some oat chaff came out with it. In a disdainful sort of way she brushed them from the counter. I left that building with the seeds of loneliness in my heart, Certainly, in my experience, paying money on the mortgage was a pleasant affair and often the mortgager would invite you in a cordial way to have a sip of, some- thing or other. Timidly I broached the subject of the weather to the waiter in the flashy bar but he only smirked and said, "Yeah, terrible". The waiter gave me a cold stare when I spoke to her. The desk clerk in the hotel gave me a complete brush-off and I went to bed, realizing again that it's a world with- out friendliness in it. • Hello Homemakers !The word veg- etable is the English derative of two kindred Latin verbs—vegetare mean- ing to enliven and vegere to be lively. Since vegetables give us much sus- tenance to keep us lively, we should never say that we don't like veget- ables. Few people dislike asparagus (the fresh vegetable of the month) when it is cooked and served properly. The water for cooking asparagus, 3 inches in a deep saucepan, should be boiling, the time of the boiling per- iod should be 22 to 25 minutes, de- pending upon the quantity. This meth- od retains the bright green colour and cooks asparagus until tender while sav- ing the most nutritive value. We use the top part of the double boiler and place a couple of zinc sealer rings in the bottom to hold the stalks upright. In this way the tender tips are not overcooked. In genuity in the seasoning of veg- etables enhances their flavour and appetite appeal. Paprika will give a subtle and to chopped greens one day, and a leek, a more daring one the next. Canned beets steeped in a hot mixture of vinegar, sugar and sweet marjoram for one day become a deli- cacy. Celery, cabbage and green on- ions, all cut fine and steamed together make a one-dish vegetable that your neighbours will copy, Then, too, a good sauce which is "flippant" lends harmony to a meal. Finally, serve a hot vegetable steaming hot to be real- ly tasty, GOLDEN SAUCE—For Asparagus Beat 2 egg yolks with 1 tbsp. cold water, 1 tbsp, lemon juice and 112 tsp. salt, Melt 2 tbsps. butter and stir in 2 tbsps, flour and stir until blended. Gradually add 1 cup of canned con- somme or soup stock and cook until mixture thickens, Slowly pour the mixture over the beaten eggs. Cook By R. J.

Many people go to endless trouble in the spring fertilizing, top- dressing and rolling their lawn, only to offset much of the good they do at that time, by mowing it too close all through the summer. The shorter the leaves, the more the grass Will 'be exposed to the burning sun; the more fertilizer and water will be required; and the easier it will be for weeds to encroach. The cutting bar of the lawn mower should never be set lower than 11/li or 2 inches from the ground, except with creeping. bent grasses, which are sel- dom used on garden lawns. Mowing should be frequent, so that clippings may be left on the lawn where they form a good source of rich nutriment. If the grass has grown too long; how- ever, the clippings must be raked off, as if they lie on the lawn they tend to smother the grass roots and cause dead patches to appear. Water is valuable during the hot summer months. .A, good soaking once a week is more use than a light sprink- ling every other night. Watering should be continued until the soil is thoroughly moistened to a depth of four inches, PHIL OSIFER OF LAZY MEADOWS By ,Harry J.
