FOREIGN MARKETS LOOK WITH FAVOR ON OUR WINES IrMPROVEMENT in quality which has taken place over the past decade is gradually gaining recog- nition 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, sheii ies 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 sonalnencing to develop just prior to the war has continued, but of course has been greatly restricted 'due to war -tine 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 advantage of this opportunity in the post-war period. Improvement and modernization of plant facilities, processing equipment and laboratory con- trols have been consistent. With the assistance of the, Vineland nortieulturel Station of the On-' tario Department -of Agriculture, new and better types of grapes have been developed. Today our • domestic wines are worthy and palatable products. Many people 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 eases 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 valuable 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, WI1AT SCIENCE IS DOING FURNACE OF THE FUTURE • Memo for the future: Fire the handyman, and instal a furnace that streamlines its appetite and takes so little tending, it ceases to be a back -breaking chore. The University of Illinois, which designed this sleek new basement apparatus, blandly con- cedes you can't buy one now, but thinks' everyone should know what win 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 own 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 .J. C. Miles are the_. engineers who invented the furnace, and their description of the operation snakes it a really simple thing, Just throw coal in by bucketsful, they say, and the fishes Strop• into a removable pan which can be tossed around with- out ithout the Casual cloud of dust. Thesaine basic furnace box can be fitted for three types of home installation. They are a gravity warm -air furnace; a forced circu- lation hot-air furnace, or a space beater. • • Even if your old furnace isn't steady for the scrap heap, Protes- tor Fellows has a gadget to curb its appetite, eliminate smoke and give more heat. His device separ- ates the firepot into two cham- bers -one for Boal and one for, the fire. Thefresh eoai chamber is open at the bottoiii, and its walls extend own th the glowing coals of the fire. As the heat releases smoke and ,poses from the fresh coal, they ieust pass under the walls to es- tape. The walls are hollow, and bring heated air to the point where the ainoke and gases meet the fire, and then, just as eimplc as tralis. They burn. Modern Etiquette By Roberta Lee 1.

Gracie Fields told the story o Mrs. Croggins, whose 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.' Passenger: "I've been wait- ing for a bus for 10 minutes. Then five of them come along together. Why can't you arrange it better?" Operator: "Well, you sec, 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 -a. diers were beginning to get res- tive. As she reached the tines: "And for bonnie Annie Laurie I'd lay nae doon and dee," a voice came from 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!" An Arab was being taken in a car 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 en his driver, he picked himself up and apologized profusely: "I've not learned to ride one of these things yet." "I'm going to kiss you be- fore I go," said the young man who had outstayed his • welcome. "Do it now while l'an still young," replied the girl wear- ily. Two cavalry recruits were hav- ing a chat. "Talking about riding," said one, "I once saw a chap in a cir- cus who jumped, on the hor'se's back, slipped underneath, caught ' HEYlSARGE WHERE'S YOUR MINARD'S SOLDIERS RUB OUT TIRED ACHES • MIe a GEJ{ WOMEN (yrs.o d) HEED THiS ADViCE!!.

Divi,-Iirabin7 Uses Up Pilots Terribly A few days ago I met in a Lon- don club a quiet unobtrusive man in the thirties who specializes in the highly -paid but hazardous busi- ness of testing new airplanes, writes the London correpondent of The Ottawa Journal, Before this war he even did some testing for the Germans, and he knows aIi about their dive -bombers. He told ni.e some interesting facts about these 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 terrible 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 vitae again, he gets what is known as "a blackout." This is familiar enough to air - mon who make sudden turns at high speed. Hut it exaggerated in the case of the dive -bomber pilot and every time he repeats the •operation the blackout peridtl. Is longer. 'It may he only a second or two at first, but it 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 half a minute, seems fairly certain. U.
