AS Others See You

A brand new mirrow has been in
vented. It's a magnifying mirror for
the dressing table, and looks like
any other mirror. 1t may be had in
your favorite color with powder box
to match-that you may carry out
the decorative scheme of your dress
ing table. But when you look into it
well, watch out for a shock-be-
cause it magnifies.
Instead of seeing a perfect example
of the skin you love to touch, you
will see all the tiny lines that are COM
ing-all the spots and maybe freckles
all the moles; in fact, everything
that is there and shouldn't be.
All of which serves to remind us of
the real Importance of a good mirror,
not necessarily one that magnifies
but one that makes it possible for US
to see our skins as they really are and
keep a check on the blemishes that
mar its beauty is all that is necessary
in the majority of cases. The next
essential is the light, which must be
clear and strong Shadows have a
way of flattering and deceiving-and
illusions are quickly destroyed in
strong light.
Choose hand mirror Of generous
Fitzgerald leader enterprise and press., 1927-02-03

size-not too heavy, and with han
die that may be easily held. An oval
shape is to be preferred to an odd or
fanciful one-and the round mirror
is always the best-eyen though at
the present time it seems bit old
fashioned.
And remember that the mirror
must not be just a decorative orna-
ment. Make habit of using it reg
ularly-for studying good points and
bad points on the face, lines Of the
head, Arrangement of the hair, pro-
file, ETC. 1t will serve as friend and
warn you of disfiguring lines and
blemishes in time to avoid them, and
teach you to play up your good points
against those that are not so good.
And, while we are on the subject,
don't overlook the Importance of TAX
ing caureful note of the back of your
head each time you dress. This is
the most important, for although you
may not be conscious of it, other peo-
pie look as closely and critically at
the back of your head as at your face.
A beautiful arrangement of the hair
over the face cannot excuse straggly
wisps of hair and crooked part in
the back

saxophone quartettes and sextettes In

to win folks over to religion.
"Not so long ago it was quite COM
mon for church people to shun the
mention of saXophone, let alone go to
hear one played" says James f. Boy
er, supervisor Of the Conn Music Cen
ter. "The sentiment seemed to be,
even among musicians, that the saxo-
phone wasn't much good for bat jazz,
and for a while it did appear that
the Jazz artists were the only ones to
recognize and make use of this com
paratively new addition to the brass
instrument family. Reports now COM
ing In here, however, indicate q
changed attitude on the part OF the
public. Artists know that the saxo-

recognize that there is nothing SO beau
tiful musically as saxophOne solo.
II. Benne Henton, one Of the greatest
living masters of this instrument, claims
that no cleaner, more elevating or ln-
spirational music can come from any
instrument, and will not play anything
that has the slightest faint Of Jazz In
it. Saxophone quartettes and saxo-
phone sextettes are winning a place
for themselves in churches especially
those that cannot afford pipe organ,
and other churches have found that
the appearance of an orchestra at
church functions invariably draws In
creased attendance. This Is indeed
fighting the devil with his own wea-
pens"

AGRICULTURAL OUTLOOK
FOR 1927 CROP YEAR

The outlook for the swine industry
for 1927 is favorable; present infor-
nation indicates 1927 market sup
ply of hogs no larger and perhaps
smaller than in 1926. Domestic de-
mand is expected to continue strong,
but no improvement in foreign de-
mand is anticipated. Hog prices are
likely to be maintained during 1927
near the 1926 level. Prices similar
to those now prevailing cannot be
maintained through 1928, unless hog
production is held down to the level
of the past two years.
On the basis of supplies and proba-
BILE demand, as indicated above, hog
prices through the next six months
will probably be maintained at about
the same level as year ago, with
about the same seasonal movement;
prices during the summer and early
fall are likely to continue high, but
not quite up to the average of the
last six months of 1926; during the
winter of 1929 prices will probably
be on slightly lower level than dur
ing the present winter In making
plans for the fall pig crop of 1927
and the spring crop of 1928, farmers
should bear in mind that the present
level of prices cannot be maintained
if material increases are made in pro-
duction and marketings.
The Beef Cattle Outlook
The number of cattle marketed in
1927 will probably be materially less
than in 1926. Unusually heavy
slaughter of cattle and calves during
1926 reduced numbers on farms and
ranges in the United States to the
lowest point in many years. The de-
mand for beef is expected to continue
at about the same level as last year
when total domestic consumption was
the highest on record. No prospects
of increased competition from abroad
or from other meats in the domestic
market is in sight. Prices of slaugh-
ter cattle are expected to average
somewhat higher than in 1926.
Stocker and feeded cattle will prob
ably meet a strong, active demand
throughout the year.
Fitzgerald leader enterprise and press., 1927-02-03
The Dairy Products Outlook

Further slight decrease in dairy
cows occurred in 1926 and the num-
bers of heifers are insufficient for
normal requirements. Production
during 1927 may exceed the low 1926
production, which was partly due to
exceptionally poor pasturage. Dairy
men are likely to have moderately
favorable spread between the price
of food and the price of dairy pro-
duets for year or two, should ur-
ban industries continue at approx
'mately their present activity. Domes-
tic demand promises to continue mod
erately favorable and foreign demand
to show improvement. Foreign pro-
duction however, is increasing. On
the whole, the dairy situation is on a
stronger basis than yeaE ago. If
the number of heifer calves saved is
not materially increased, favorable
conditions may continue.

The Egg and Poultry Outlook

The year 1927 promises no material
change for egg producers in most
sections of the country. Present in
dications point to moderate increase
in egg production, but it is expected
that there will be little change from
last years price levels. There is ap-
parently no reason to anticipate any
particular decrease in the production
and marketings of poultry during the
coming year, so that the present
heavy holdings of dressed poultry are
likely to have a depressing effect on
the poultry market, unless demand in
creases.
In those regions of the country
where there is an apparent attitude
on the part of many people to expand
the poultry industry to meet the ex-
ergencies due to recent low prices
for certain staple farm products,
those contemplating specialized egg
production should seriously consider
the question of available market out
lets for their products.
