 Now that everyone is practicing economy and prOlonging the usefulness of garments by remodeling them, these fur-fabrics have proven themselves the best of aids. They help to change the appearance of made-over clothes so completely that there is no recognizing original suit or frock that is enriched by them-and their durability means a long time lease on life for such gar ments.
 Entire coats of fur-fabrics are very warm and hardly suited to the milder climates of the South, but scarfs and muffs, or collars and cuffs on fashion able coatings worn with huff to match them, make an ideal coat for any lati- tude. In the North sweater worn under a coat of this kind makes it as warm as fur coat and the cloth coat trimmed with fur-fabric. At least the equal of an entire coat of the fabric, in elegance and in rich appearance.

PRICES OF FOOD
SHOULD Be LESS
Hoover Says "Corner Has Been
Turned" and Reductions
Should Follow.
PRICES STAY Up
Administrator Urges Pressure by Pub
lie to Stop Small Retailers
From Extorting War
Profits.

Washington, Oct. 20-That the cor.
ner has been turned in high food
prices and that most of the essential
commodities would continue to show
cost reductions between now and the
end Of the year, is the notice given
to the public by Food Administrator
Hoover.
He pointed out, also, that retail
prices are not going down in accord
with wholesale reductions and intimat.
ed that the consumer, himself, might
correct this by bringing proper pres
sure to bear. I
To aid the public in dealing with
those retailers who continue to eXtort
war Profits, the food administration
now is collecting wholesale prices on
all staples in 700 cities and soon will
begin publishing them weekly for COM
parison with the retail figures. With
out further authority from Congress-,
Mr.. Hoover said, the government is
powerless to control retailers, except
those doing a business of more than
100000 a year.
AS an illustration of how the price
to the consumer is being kept UP a
statement issued by the administrator
said beef now is selling at wholesale
in Chicago at 14k cents a pound,
compared with 16 cents in July, while
the average retail price of round
| steak now is 81 cents, compared with
| 81 cents in July. The millers' price
for first patent flour in jute bags ranges
from $40 to $10.70, but the average
retail price is $13.77, or, the admins
traitor says, from $1.50 to 50 more than
the wholesale figure warrants.
Now that it is al. over, Mr.. Hoover
said, it may be admitted that in Sep
TENDER the country faced a serious
shortage of flour and New York city,
at one time, was down to a 36-hours'
supply. Virtually the same condition
! prevailed at Philadelphia and in other
consuming centers.
