Consider that there are more than 40,000 beauty shops in the Unit- ed States and that, according to the American Cosmetician Seale:se they do an annual bushing of $1,P5,000,- 000, Remember, aleoe that va's't num- bers of women buy creams and make- ap not in, these shops but in depart- ment and drug stares. The value of these annually manufactured products as-etatvd by the United States De- partment of Commerce report for .1927 is just short of $178,500,000. In addie tion imports every year are $10,500,- 000 for creams, perfumes, perfume ma- terials, and toilet soap. As for the domestic brand 0,1 the last-mentioned article, Crane's Market Data Book of last year tells us that most of the 276,000,000 worth of soap made in this country is for toilet purposes. Such vast expenditure For beauty ri- vals the sums devoted to education, to good toads, to armatnentss in peace- time. Acc'ording to the cosmeticians, however, women are not yet spend- ing enoulgh. They would ha.ve every mother's dat.glhter invest three hund- red dollars' a year in physical up -keep and impeavem.ents. This group aud the manufalcturers leave no stone unturn- ed to stimulate further the flow of money in this direction. Art an.d sci- eace have been deeply involved in the ATTRACTIVE WAY OF USING APPLES At this tine of the year when reeeles are so plentiful housekeepers should utilize them as inueh' as pos- sible. There are so many ways of cooking aeOles that the cook should not get into the prescatbeci habit oa apple sauce, Maple pie and baked ap• plcs. A jellied apple sauce is a de- veaved and died with maximum speed and co.mfort. Architects and decorat- ors create veritable temples where rites are pursued in an aturos.phere of smart restfuluess, Artists and copy- writers fill one-third of the advertising apace in magazines with appeals to our vanity. Such manifestations are harmless' enough. What does give one pause is the tendency to use this new techni- que of beautificatioe to serve' a grow- . mg recklessness of behavior. Women concern themselves not at all about the effect of late parties and too .many eocktails. They believe that next mor- ning a facial treatment can smooth away the puffs and creases, that rouge will hide the pallor, that lavender powder will cover redness of eyelids, i'id that little drops will brighten, the dulled pupils. Rich dishes and after - theatre suppers have no terrors to those who know plenty of methods of reducing after the season is over. Theories of moderation are, therefore, yielding to the hilarious motto, 'E'at, Drink and Be Merry, for tomonro:w ate diet and get out the cold cream. The attitude of modern ,woman is specially patent in the realm of fac- ial surgery. In order to obliterate the results of time and aver -stimulation, in order that they may lose their tan - dent chins or the tell-tale puffs under the eyes, in order that they may ac- quire perfection or shed imperfec- tion, women today 'pay thousands of dollees for a single op.eration every five or six years, at least, They are never deceived about it, Reputa.ble surgeons who perform these opera- tions never guarantee permanence, but nailing daunts these seekers. of eter- nal youth. If gond operators refuse to take them they go to charlatans, and the result may be disfiguration for life.

GROWING, SELECTION AND PREPARATION OF GRAIN AND SEED FOR EXHIBITION (Copyright, 1931.) By 'Herman Trelle, Article 2. Spotting A ,Winning Sample Befare Harvest, It is brae rhat this year some of the choicest .sections of Canada's vase western, agricultural areas lieve been handicapped badly 'by an abnormally prolonged drought condition, For- tunately +Canada's expansive farm areas extend over a wide range of cli- matic variation, so large that it is happily never .possible for nature to be unkind to the entire 'land at one time in the distribution of her favors from season 10 season.. It is only toe trite that the bulk of Canada's tfin es agricultural seed ex- hibitors frolm year to year 'have their beautiful .farms in this stricken area, hut there is a .bright spot in the fore- sight of the rules governing the World's .Grain n Exhibitioand Confer- ence whieh m permits samples fram any previous year to he egbibited. Se Can- ada can rest assured that these beau- tiful seeds grown by Canada's quality farm.ers; in these 'handicapped areas in years past can be relied upon to give a good account of th.etnselves; and it is good speculation to doubt whether the fortunate seed growers Who har- vest a crap this year can produce a quality su.perior to. this fine carry-over seed, shall confine my remarks and ob- servations in this series of articles al- most entirely to the great central plain area which lies east of the !Rocky Mountaine and west of Manitoba's Red River Valley. But the inethads and practices which the writer dis- cusses throughout .cart be just as well applied in any other part of Canada's agricultural area, or in any ether part of the world enjoying a temperate cli- mate wherein Hard Red Spring wheat can be successfully grown; and, by the a -ay, the quality of the spring wheat that can be developed is a most reliable indicator o'f most other seed crops that adapt themselves to our special climate. 'Nature rules with an absolutely iron hand ie the exhibition'game. Her likes anti her dislikes are dealt out in her oven mysterious fashion. The best we can. do is to. work in closest harmony with nature in every understanding way we are able to discover, and then. when it is our turn to get th,e 'breaks" we 'shall reap the best a.evard. IBy judging from past favorable years, when progress of plant growth has been normal from seeding time clear through until a successful har- vest has been gathered, all may easily •determine, in their respective- districts of agricultural pursuit, Whether they can expect a quality crop or not. If the crop has 'been .handicapped in any way and at any time daring its normal cycle of growth -by an over -dose of moisture, or .droug,ht, or heat or wind, or a prolonged .cold spell, or hail, or rust -it will show tap in the seed, one wd. ay or another, analways with a destroying effect. 'Look far the best wheat in a uni- formly clean field (not growing rank) where there has only been just enough moisture to develop an average of 2 to hea'ds bo the plane If the' normal tooling is any beerier it will retard naturity and affect plumpness. and ..ou cannot depend on a sound berry afore the frost.

Peas do best on breaking and on ,high and well ventilated exposures. These. observations will help the prospective World's Grain Show ex- hibitor in his chances to use his first fine judgment. From now on he takes a gambling chance with nature in her makes and breaks as to just what is the next weather change .that may chance to turn up. And, you can take it from the writer, there a -ill be a lot of thrills before the game is decided at the Welles Grain Show next year.

'Fresh Fruit Market For Grapes. The grape growers of Ontario are in a fair way to :solving the marketing of this SCEVS011'S crop, according to Charles W. Bauer, secretary of the Ontario's Growers' Market Council, The energetic steps taken by the growers under leadership of the \vin- eries committee have been bearing fruit, With the wineries' requiretnents greatly reduced, the growers were faced with the necessity of making arrangetnetas to sell this year's heavy crop in some ether manner. Steps have now been taken to re- vive the fresh fruit market for grapes in the .pnairie provinces. in Oatario, and .Eastern Canada, An intensive inert:et campaign has been entered into atid an appropriation made for advertising the household use of grapes which tell,' be put On all mar- kets at attractive prices.
