BY JEAN PRESCOTT ADAMS.

1t is during my own marketing time
that l get the real evidence of the un-
preparedness of the busy home wom-
stuffs is concerned
Fortunately there are hundreds of
women who have read the housekeeping
and cookery pages in the newspapers,
and who knew that this increase was
about to come. These women are in a
position to buy, cook and serve food
wisely.
| To the woman who has not had access
to these helps the kitchen pocketbook be-
gins to take on an appalling resemblance
! to an all-consumins monster
! Housewives Must Figure.
| The high cost problem is the house
| wife's. The problem simply stated is
this-''How shall | keep my food ex-
penditure in its proper proportionate
place" Thirty to forty per cent of the
| family income should cover the ex-
penditure for food. That is of an income
/ of $3.50, S45 month may be spent for
! food. This includes all lunches and meals
purchased outside the home.
The average American family of four
can live well on half this sum thereby
saving the other half to add to the
saving or investment account. 1t be-
| hooves every housewife to study the ways
of thrift nowadays and that means a
study of market conditions and of quality
foods The old saying. It's an ill wind
that blows nobody good" comes to my
mind.
| The present situation is the most potent
factor possible to make women think
when they buy and prepare foods. Be
cause of it we will be more careful not
to have left-overs. We will take greater
care of the food after it gets into the
home.
Incidentally. meat and rice seem to be
about the only foods that have not gone
up in this recent price agitation. Though
the retail price of meat may have varied
somewhat the packers have not raised
the price of meat for three years. The
large commercial producer has no con-
troll over the producer of raw material.
They merely act as selecters. preservers
and distributors of the produces of the
world. If there is a shortage in the sup
ply of raw material the commercial pro-
ducer is caught the same the rest.

LEATHER SHOES TO DIsAPPEARl 2

The importance of shoes as an ar
ticle of dress is shortly to become a
matter of more attention than clothes
or hats. The reason for this is that
the price of shoes, advancing as it
must, is going to make footwear
made of leather a matter of luxury.
The present condition of the leather
market and the prospective supply,
the permanent supply, will shortly
warrant the retailer in asking SIo
and SI2 for the same quality of
goods that formerly sold for s. and
S.
The decadence of the cattle in
dustry in this country and abroad.
the elimination of such countries as
Mexico as producers of hides, the
ever increasing demand as against
the decreasing supply will account
for the tremendous increase in the
cost OF shoes that every manufac-
turer and dealer unwillingly predicts.
Russia, which furnished a very
considerable quantity of the finer
calfskns, has not shipped a skin
into the American market for
months. And instead of there being
big surplus of leather in Russia, as
might be expected, the American
consuls reporting from the Russian
leather centers say that there is a
scarcity of tanned skins and no
stored product upon which to draw.
