The General Manager, Mr. M. W.

Sir Herbert dealt with the principal industries,of Canada, making a number of constructive suggestions. He strong- ly advocated that the west should be less dependent on the production of grain, substituting mixed farming. He approved of the suggested formation of an agricultural credit corporation to assist the farmers to purchase cattle, sheep and hogs.

But for comfortable use, it must be small enough to fit. laany little :girls discard thim.-les simply because they are a wabb- nuisance. Basting is the easiest stitch to learn first, and a medium width hem easiest for small hands to manage at the be- ginning. Handkerchief skirt hems are so narrow and so deep respective- ly,' that they are a trial. instead an inch hem on a bureau scarf or stringer is easier, and rather coarse material like crash is better for the beginner's sticky little needle. I strawberry emery is first aid of coarse to a sticky needle and part of a sewing outfit. Soft materials like voile and muslin are easy for the beginner's needle. The stiff cambric of on grandmoth- er's day is a trial for faultless stitches. Dimity is rather a good material to work with, for this will be stiff enough to crease, and yet be pliable to the needle. In a recent edition of "The Christian Science Monitor" Marion Broomfield gives some interesting tips to moth- ers of the modern generation. Here are some excerpts from this interest- ing article: pial An accomplishment useful to a through life is to know bow "to sew a tine seam."

Even ready- made, e dy- if she should buy made, there are always a few staitches to be taken, whether they tera- tions, or repairs. There is as always the beauty of hand work, d the practical art of mending. Table linen and gifts need the hand touch. But teaching the little girl to sew sometimes takes patience. There are, in fact, modern mothers who exclaim, "Oh, Betty will learn to sew at school, � so why should X bother?" But teach- ing sewing is planting the seed of do- mesticity, and this cannot be taught too early. .A. girl unconsciously learns the quiet pleasure of the peace pos- sible in home making. Further, sew- ing is an anti; to for those hours of "What shall I do, Moths,: " .One mother who realized that she was not as patient as an outsider, started two "little sisters of 7 and 9 with embroidery lessons, one summer vacation. Now some might say, "Why not learn a few practical stitches, first?" But the idea a: d its reason were ex. ellent, for thtse children 'through their love of beauty and color learned to sit quietly re d execute fine stitches. What might have been a tedious task when stitched with thread into cotton cloth, was fascinat- ing with rose embroidery floss.

If a room is so arranged that the flowers dominate it, it is possible to give a sense of constant change and variety simply by arranging iu dis- tinctive vases skillfully chosen and well-placed blossoms. Flowers, both growing and as house decoration, are to -day being more and more appreciated. The great popu- larity of beige, pale yellow, stone, and grays for walls is an almost instinc- tive recognition that all of these are shades against which practically any colored flower looks lovely. The har- mony of a pot of scarlet iielcl poppies backed by a cream -colored wall will never be forgotten. Even white fiow- ers contrast delightfully with this warm, deep creamy yellow. But with regard to carpets, how few people when choosing them have the claims of flowers in thought? As with walls, most plain -colored carpets -are safe from this point of view. The Persian type of design, which is so intricate and small -as to give a gen- eral all-over effect with no particular color Predominating, always produces an unobtrusive sense of harmony. In a room with a wall paper having a decided pattern that does not set off flowers, it is a good plan to hang up a width of parchment brocade, mounted at the top on a strip of oak or mahogany molding. This niay be placed either in a recess or in the center of a wall, with a side table in front of it, on which may be placed a jar of beautiful Sowers. This is a use- ful hint for the woman who cannot af- ford at the moment to bave'her walls papered. Too many ornaments in a room al- ways detract from the effect of flow- ers, as do too great a number of pic- tures—for flowers should never be placed so that they cut across Pic- tures. Flowers generally look delightful in a room wit:: chairs covered in floral cretonnes. Such: a room often gives the appearance of out-of-doors, the real blooms and the woven ones com- bining to impart a sense of the abun- dance and variety of a herbaceous border in an Old -World garden. --The Christian Science Monitor.

Seaming Before Hemming Running a seam nicely conies really before hemming. If the seam is care- fully basted with contrasting thread, a little girl will not have much trouble keeping the final running stitches on the straight line of the seam. Fifty thread is usually about right, as finer thread breaks too easily. , Mercerized thread is especially smooth to use. Another way to learn to make small straight stitches, as the next step, af- ter basting, is to sew trimming on some article. Rickrack braid, tape or bias binding is excellent for this purpose, for results are fairly quick and little girls must not be discour- aged by too long a stitch. A little apron of unbleached cotton or gay crepe (soft to sew) is quickly finished by being bound around with the bias binding. Both basting and running stitches are learned this way. d the bias tape comes in a great va- riety of pretty colors. Doll clothes, curtains, breakfast cloths and even bedspreads can bea trimmed with it. Hemming should be practiced on cotton, silk and wool... And it is bet- ter etter for a little girl to try for 10 even stitches every day, than to sit at length and make crooked ones because of fatigue.

Baby's Own Tablets hold this envi- able distinction in thousands of homes from one end of Canada to the other.
