SHOES

Don't get excited about shoe costs. The press notices to the effect that s25. % and up shoes are in sight is largely myth. There always have been S25.OO shoes and about one per son in ten thousand would pay the price. There always have been $10 to $500 shoes, and numbers of peo- ple would buy these shoes-possibly because they matched dress or for some other equally important req son.
 There always have been shoes for dress-up and street wear. retailink from $500 to $500 for the past ten years. Shoes retailing at $500 to s10.OO before the war now sell at $7 to s15, showing an advance in price of $2.O0 to $500 per pair.
 shoes $3 % to $500 for hard wear There always have been boys and girls shoes at similar prices. The shoes of this kind which sold before the war at $3OO to $500 were sold durink the war at from $4.00 to $700 and are being sold now at $4.50 to $500
 The advance in the price of shoes in the last four years averages about $2.00 to 500 per pair.
 Don't be talked into paying any fancy or ridiculous prices for your footwear Advances there are and advances there will be-legitimate and necessary. but nothing like the
 made about "$25.00 shoes" need give you moments concern. And now a word of advice. Don't speculate in shoes. Don't buy any
 more than you need. Meaning, don't hoard shoes, as some people | are doing. If you buy a pair oi shoes suited to your needs and take
 good care of them and have them re
 paired when they need repairing
 keep them we'll half-soled and heeled
 you can save a lot of money or your footwear.

FOREIGN TRADE OF BRAZIL
 VERY ENCOURAGING

Rio de Jeneiro, Aug. 15.-The for eign trade of Brazil during the firstq half or 1913 is regarded as very en- couraging An increased exporta- tation of some of BraZil's staple com modities, such as coffee, cocoa, chill ed beef, hides, oil-bearing fruits, etc., as we'll as the high prices which these articles haze commanded, leaves very respectable trade balance. That Brazil has capidly forged ahead com mercially during the years of the war is generally conceded. The countrys agricultural possibilities are as yet practically dnexploited, and the war acted as 5. mulus toward ascertain ing the wide range of her productiv- fty.
 Brazil has been able to export to Europe fo Jdstuffs which, few years ago, she was not able to supply to herself. m the same way, animal husbandry is making strides which point to m .l1ing meat products one of the countrys chief exports. While Brazil has lways ben a catle coun- try, it is only during the last three upon or fodr years that she has been looked upon as world supplier and even more recently several large mod ern packing houses have been con structed or projected. These are if packing interests.
 In the past year the federal gov ernment, through the agricultural department, has devoted considerable attention to the importation and pur- chase of animals of pure blood. It is proposed to carry on an extensive ed ncational campaign among the live stock breeders of Brazil to improve the standard of cattle. For this purpose the government intends to make liberal money appropriations
 David Farrell Commissioner of United States Department of Ag- riculture, accompanied by an assis- tant, has just arrived in Brazil to make an investigation of the cattle industry and give information to Bra zilian cattle raisers regarding the inn portation of American cattle.
