NEW YORK, December H.-With the
Christmas season right at hand every
one is more or less interested In the
pie question. Some people shudder at the
mention Of pie. and others smile. Every
woman has deep-rooted belief some
where about her that she can make bet
ter pie than any other woman on earth.
Pies are Of particular interest in New
York Just now, because hundreds Of men
and women are working like slaves day
and night TO supply the Chris'mas-Day
demand for them Few people have any
Idea TO what extent the making Of pies
has grown in the large cities.
Here, for Instance, the pie business has
become such an industry that the manu-
facture Of the more or less faky deli
caces Is a trade in itself. with any num-
Der OF establishments in the city which
supply the largest as well as many Of
the smallest dealers. 1t is estimated
that at least 100000 pies are eaten
in New York every year. In the present
stage Of the pie 1t is arranged into six

cents, increasing In size gradually TO
