The main grades at the present mo- mm, however. are in the vicinity 01 mty cents per pound. with mm; special grades going as high as sixty cents. Under exist- mg mndltions it is almost im- possible to forecast prices.

"the market on fced grains and other feeds continues strong. This is due in part to the fact that Western grains are not in a shipping position. At the present time it looks as though the De- t-amher markets are moving up- ward and our costs must be has- ,.d, to a great extentf on .these markets. Western harvest wea- th:-r has been very unfavorable. There is a huge crop of grain in the West, but not much more than one-quarter of the Alberta crop and perhaps a little better liinn one-third of the Saskatche- unn crop is completely harvested. Those are the areas in which our iced grains originate.

"There is snow over a great dnni of the Prairies and the grain may stay in the fields all winter. in addition transportation condi- twins are not good. and in view at the priorities given to the movement of wheat for export. feed grains will not move as freely as would be desirable. The situation is one that is unfortun- 1110. but nevertheless there is not wry inucii we can do about it. 041:, No. 1 bulk

Here: a red-hot tip for carpen- ters. It comes irom Walter Her- greaves of Camloops. British Co- lumbia. who says: It is not un- usual to run one's saw into hid- den nails that play the mischief with teeth in nothing list. To Wold this. tile a law teeth on the top or back edge oi the saw. when you come to a nail all you have to do is to reverse your saw ma cut through the nail with the aux- iliary teeth, then bring your saw into its natural position and con- tinue without damage to the saw.

Here it is, ladies! Bllanium Rutile, the new wonder gem of the century-a diamond-like ring that fools even the experts. But better still, it costs only 310.00 per carat.

In the recent Irish Hospital sweepstakes a handful of Canad- ians won 8365.560 bucks. That's a lot. of dough for the lucky guys, eh? gut. and there is a but-it is estimated that Canadians put s3,000.000 in the big pot. Looking at it in the right light there's no getting away from the hard, cold. facts that gambung, like crlme,. does not pay.

The automobile and its cousin. the truck, are the real killers in Canada and the United States. In 1949-the most recent year for which iigui-es have been estimated -the railroads bumped off 493 employees and 41 passengers. Air iatalities come second. But. motor vehicles wiped out 39,000 lives and injured well over a million per- sons.

statistics are tricky things, but even when adjusted for the rela- tive miles travelled, traffic on the roads oi Canada and the U. S. A.. killed almost twice as many asdld airplanes and seven times as many 'as railroads.

Canadians are spending more on liquor than is spent) on education. and three times as much as it spent for bread and bakery pro- ducts and clothing.

Last year I had Mr. Howard give a demonstration in my pres- ence and behave it or not. the prongs or the switch would turn towards the earth every time he crossed I hidden stream. I took the thing in my own hands, did as I'd been directed, but that switch never came alive in my hands. never as much as moved a muscle. How do you account lot that? Personally, I haven't any idea how the thing works and it any oi my readers can tell me I'd be very grateful for the iiuprmatlon.

"When you eat onions don't breathe them to a soul,” used to be mighty good advice, but good neafs to onion lovers is the discov- ery that s small amount or sugar. added to the cooking water for onions, cuts down odor and raw flavor without imparting toomuch
