WOMEN ARE CHIEF PURCHASING AGENTS Women do 80 percent of the buy- ing of clothing and dry goods, say those experts who are always reduc- ing things to percentages. More rapid style changes and greater turnover in women's apparel than to men's causes faster selling of femin- ine goods. Some 55 per cent. of all sales by drygoods concerns repre- sents purchases. by the women for their own use, including ready-to- wear garniente, piece goods, lingerie, .silk hose and other forms of femin- ine wear, Children's clothing and outfits make up 7 per cent. of the total, while linens, draperies and other household furnishings .account, for 18 per cent. With 3 per cent, for miscellaneous, only 17 per cent. of the dry goods volume could be at- tributed to the purchase for men — and if shirts, socks, ties, etc,, bought by wives, or the influence of femin- ine collaboration in the purchase of suits and hats were discounted, the purely masculine share in the buy- ing would doubtless be still further reduced.

MEETING OF COUNTY LIVE STOCK IMPROVEMENT ASSOCIATION A meeting of the Huron bounty Live Stock Improvement Association -was held in the Agricultural- Office, Clinton, recently. Mr. Hugh Hill; Goderich, who is President of the Association, occupied the chair and all directors with the exception o9 four were in attendance. This As- sociation, which was formed last April, is interested in the constant improvement of live stock through- out the County and it is through this organization that the 20 per cent bonus is paid on all pure bred bulla purchased by farmers in Huron County, providing they have not previously owned a pure bred sire. Of course, before any bonus is paid) the animal' must i;irst pass inspec, Um], The report of the secretary show- ed that during the month .of June seventeen animals were inspected for the bonus, Of this number two were not eligible because their owners had previously ownefl� a pure-bred sire but the other fifteen passed inspec- tion and $293.00 in bonus mony was paid.' In October fifteen more ani- mals were inspected and eight were passed which will result in about $175.00 being distributed among the owners of th�,ese animals. Of the remaining nu'fnber, 'three were not eligible, and four were turned down on conformation and type. In view of the existing economic conditions the Association feels that the results obtained to date are quite gratifying, and undoubtedly, when conditions improve, more farmers will be interested in purchasing pure-bred sires of approved type. At the ,organization meeting in April the following directors were appointed; one for each Township: .Ashfield, John Parrish, Lucknow 'i, Colborne, Hugh Hill, Goderich, 4; Goderich, Herbert Cox, Bayfield, 2; .Stanley, Clifford Keyes,.
