Canadian Homes" Sun*
Canadian favin women are handi
'Gapped at every turn in their stru

They lack properly equipped bath

and $place three-piece 'btthrei¢ns
bathtubs;. ;built—in lanPdry tubs ani
washing machines '`high on the `lis
,of'things theywould niost;`like;t

These findings result -from ,apo1
of Canariian medium .and Iow;co
homes revealing' `a ,sad shortage y o
sanitary "facilities „in Canadian rura
homes Lever Brgthors Litiifted,. Wh
conducted the stjxvey, ,said ,finning

Key, to household cleaning prob
lent, the surrey .iiidic'ites, lies in
providing more running water and
especially :ho running Water.
The survey was confined to farms
of 200 acres or less. It is estifnated
that 70% of all Canadian •farmers
'are,, in this class; •
• • Connected 'With, the running water
'shortkge is "the .i sport itliat nearly
half the village !retries and 'three-
quarters ` df the :farm Homes lar
without flush toilets. •
.:Reason for the accent on. -bathroom
equipinent'in iiittiie 7lans�lies in the
disdovery •that• only one farmhouse
int"four has a regular bathtub. In
citi'e's and towns, where •prevalence
*Plumbing' nal'ght^be rexpeoted•~to
sh'pw • a different pidture,, ta'most one
family in five is still without a
bathtub.
The laundry picture is , also chal-
lenging. Only 21% of When homes,
604s in villages and 2% on farms are
equipped with, stationary or butt -hi
Irundry tubs, Number of tubs of any
kind` with drains is just a point or
two higher. That means the majority
of `Canadian *omen in all sections of
the' country do the weekly wash in
tubs much like their grandinothet•s
had:
Washing iaehincs are in better
supply. Almost sate n -tenths' of city
and town families have taken them
and a slightly greater number in
villages. Farms teed with 76%,
though naturally the scarcity of
electric power results:1n a ' much
higher proportion hand operated
machines. Gasoline drives the wash-
ing machines in 11% of farm, 'homes.
That few 'farm people who are
without washing machines have
separate wringers seems irdicated by
the figures" showing one home in
every five without one. Even at that
rate wringers -are more plentiful' tin'
farms than in villages Or. cities
where they are absent from one
home in evaiy four.
Nearly all women have irons, and
the cumber of electric' irons is
roughly 'in ratio to the availability
of power. But husbands have fallen .
down in supplying ironing boards,
17% of city -town women, 11% .in
villages and 26% on farms have to
do their ironing on the kitchen table-

GETTING AND GIVING
REYNARD ,THE FOX
That astute, crafty minimal, the
red fox, continues to be veryy7ilenti-
ful in every province of Canada and
his skin sgld at th's year's' fur auc-
tion sales brought twice as much as
it did 10 years ago. In '1944, fur
dealers bought 189,624 sldns at an
average price of $15,61 each, eom-
pared with an average price of $7.84
in the 1934-35 season when 104,468
skins were' sold. Foxes are most
.plentiful in Ontario, or at (east that
is where most of them 'are caught,
Quebec is in second place, and Mani-
toba third.
