LATEST LETTER
Of HENRY CLEWS

Henry Clews, writing under date Of
April 2, New York, gives a rather
gloomy account of the business and
money situation, and concludes as
follows
Such are the unsatisfactory fea-
lures of the present situation. They
have, however, been pretty thorough
ly discounted, and the general out
look is not unfavorable. On the con-
trary, there is every prospect for an
other season of good business, pro-
vided we have good crops. If there
is one thing more than another which
the country requires it is a much
larger product of all agricultural ne
cessities. This would insure contin-
ued prosperity to the farmer, and al
ford a much needed relief to the mas
ses by lowering the cost of living
and bringing it nearer the level which
prevails abroad. 1t is, of course, YET
too early to form any opinions re-

WOMEN NOT LAZY.
Most of Them Pretty Well Occupied

Most of Them Pretty Well Occupied
with Domestic Economy.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer
1t is lazy women who make the cost of
living high, so says an eminent multi
millionaire who ought to know better. He
says that wives do not go to market. but
depend on butcher boys and the fele-
phone to do marketing. with the result
that they get the poorest sort of food
stuffs at the highest prices. 1t is a terri
bic Indictment; if true. something ought
to be done to the lazy wives. But is 1t
true? We think not The multi-million-
aire, from the vantage point of his pri-
vate car or Limousine. may get a wrong
perspective Of society. He is generally
seeing pictures Of things instead of the
things themselves.
It is quite true that there are some
women who do not go to market but
these are they who care not what the
prices be. They can afford anything But
81 per cent of the women who supervise
the domestic table know pretty well what
is in the market and where to get the
cheapest. The allowance for the table In
most households has not Increased IN the
last few years In the meantime babies
have come along and with more mouths
to feed the economic problem has become
acute. There are mighty few wives who
do not know to a fraction where the best
and cheapest or the poorest and only
available foodstuffs are TO be found. ASK
any butcher or grocer whether women do
not know about prices
The proof lies in the fact that women
are the economists OF the home If Il
were only a matter of food. the situation
would be simpler. but in these days WON
en- have to dress better than ever before,
and the only way they can do so is By
exercising the closest scrutiny over every
expenditure. II Is a libel on the sex Ia
say that they spend lavishIy and extrava-
gantly on the table. when there are so
many things to be bought for personal
adOrnment. The truth IS that women are
very keen economists. They may not
know so much about the chemistry a
cooking as they should. may be deficient
IN knowledge Of the way in which a
great variety Of foodstuffs might be used

cent which is unnecessary. The causes
