FOREIGN MARKETS LOOK WITH FAVOR ON OUR WINES IMPROVEMENT in quality which has taken place over the past decade is gradually gaining reeog- coition for Canadian wines in cer- tain foreign markets. In the West Indies, Belgian Congo, India, Central and South. ,America an appreciation of the quality of Canadian red and white still table -wines, champagnes and Sparkling burgundies, sherries and ports, has expressed itself in a growing volume of orders. In this development, Canadian Trade Commissioners have been a most helpful contributing factor. This export business 'which was commencing to develop just prior to the war has continued, but of Bourse has been greatly restricted due to war -time regulations and the lack of shipping space. However, the possibilities for the development of an important volume of export business have been clearly indicated and the wineries of Ontario and the West Coast are preparing to take full • fd•trantage e,f this opportunity in the post-war period. Improvement and modernization of plant facilities, processing equipment and laboratory con- trols have been consistent. With assistancethe of the Vineland Horticultural Station of the On- WWIIAT SCIENCE IS DOING tario Department of Agriculture, new and better types f have been developed. Today our domestic wines are worthyand people palatable products. Many Peo p in Canada are inclined to dis- count the' quality of such wines because of their low price. This, however, is a fallacy as Canadian wines are pure, being made under strict governmental supervision and inspection. In all cases wines must comply, when sold, with the Food and Drugs Act of the Do- minion Government. They are low in price only because they are a domestic product. In 1942, grapes were the most veluable fruit crop of Ontario. Seventy per cent of this crop was purchased by the wineries at an equitable price which is each year agreed upon between the grape growers and the wineries and ap- proved by the Liquor Control Board of Ontario. Therefore, the development of an export market for domestic wines is of economic importance not only from the viewpoint of international trade.. balances but also to assist the wineries in maintaining the pre- sent dependable and profitable market for the increasing quan- tities of grapes grown in British Columbia and the Niagara Penin- sula. FURNACE OF THE FUTURE Memo for the future: Fire the handyman and instal afurnace a that streamlines its appetite d takes so little tending, it ceases to be a back -breaking chore. The University of Illinois, which designed this sleek new basement appart.tus, blandly con- cedes you can't buy one now, but thinks everyone should know what •will be available once the war is won. Our old furnaces got their fig- ures from the pot-bellied stove of the past, but this one is neat and square and compact. And here's a point to please the housewife --the new furnace eats its awn smoke, putting soot in the "remember when" class. The uni- versity says this smoke -eating ha- ' bit cuts fuel consumption in half. J. R. Fellows and 3. C. Miles are the engineers who invented the furnace, and their description of the operation makes it a really simple thing. Just throw coal in by bucketsful, they say, and the ashes drop into a removable pan which can be tossed around with- eut the usual cloud of dust. The same basic furnace box can be fitted for three types of home installation. They are a gravity warm -air furnace; a forced drat - lotion bot -air furnace, or a space heater. Even if your old furna e- isn' ready for the. serap heap, for Fellows has a gadget to curb its apbetite, eliminate smoke and give here heat. His device separ- ates . acres the firepot into two ch. `''bees -ova for eoal and one for the fire. • The fresh coal chamber is open t the bottom, end its walls extend own to the glowing coals of the ire, As the heat releases smoke and eases from the fresh coal, they i,ust pass under the walls to es- siape. ' The walls are hollow, and bring heated air to the point •orhero the smoke and 5gas t asgases ett the fire, and then, J es this: They burn, Modern Etiquette 13y Roberta Lee 1.

Gracie Fields told the story of Mrs. Cregginswhose son Jimmy had been stationed for some time in Australia. On an outing to the London Zoo, she came upon some kan- garoos leaping about with their babies in their pouches. A sign on the cage read: "Natives. of Australia." Eyeing the sign in consterna- tion, Mrs. Croggins cried: `Natives of Australia! Lumme, and Jimmy just wrote me he married one of those.'

Then five 'of them come along together. Why can't you arrange it better?" # Operator: "Well, you 'see, we're working in convoys now. We haven't lost a single bus so far." At a village concert for troops, men from the nearby camp turned up in force. The local soprano was obliging with "Annie Laurie," and the, sol- diers.'were beginning to get- res-. tive. As she reached the lines: "And for bonnie Annie Laurie rd lay me doon and dee," a voice calve froth the back of the hall: "Is there a Miss Laurie in the house'." Nazi air raids cannot rob the average Briton of his humor. The following sign was noted outside of a Lon- don police station: "Be Good - We're Still Here!" Ah Arab was being taken in a• ear across a very bumpy section of desert. So bad. was the going that at last the car overturned and the Arab was thrown out. Instead of turning in wrath on his driver, he picked himself up and apologized profusely: "I've not learned to ride one of these things yet."

Before this war he even dki some testing for the Germans, and he knows all about their dive -bombers. He told me some interesting facts aboutthese machines. From our point of view, though obvi,.us- ly not that of Hitler's Nazis, the great objection to dive bomber planes is the ter'r'ible way they use up their pilots. Dive-bombing is done at . a terrific pace and, every time a pilot dives, and jerks up the nose of the .machine to rise again, he gets what is known as "a blackout." This is familiar enough to air- men who make sudden turns at high speed. But it is exaggerated in the case of the dive -bomber pilot and every time he repeats the operation the blackout period. Is longer. It may be only a second or two at first, but at steadily In- creases and eventually may extend to as much as half a minute. What is likely to happen to a machine travelling at over 300 m.p.h. with its pilot "out" for hall a minute, seems fairly certain. U.
