LOS ANGELES, June 80 W.H-
We continue to get together too
many poorly finished and common
kinds of cattle. 1t is surprising
that this condition should continue
in view of the relatively eheep
feeds of all kinds which can be
best cashed in feeding to livestock.
Instances are available where bar
ley is being sold at as low as $500
per ton. At present prices of beef
and pork, it will yield about double
the price of grain at the present
time.
In the meantime, we are bringing
in grain finished cattle from the
middlewest to meet the require
ments of better beef. While price
levels have gone down substantial
ly during the last week on common
and half-fat kinds, the better quail
ity is holding reasonably firm.
Four loads, 941 pounds, grain
fed Wyoming steers, brought $11.65
cwt. on Tuesdays market. 1400 of
on hand can only be sold at a
price because they are not what
the trade wants.
The lamb business is showing a
little more firmness within the last
two weeks but there is no reason
to believe that we are going to
have much improvement in price
levels. They didn't come down all
at once and they can't be expected
TO come back all at once. This,
however, is no excuse for anybody
going out of business who has the
feed and facilities.
Present price levels are inducing
a number of people to pick up
some feeder lambs and also breed
Imperial Valley press., 1930-06-30

ing stock. Present prices ought to
induce the owners to keep back at
least their breeding stuff, but the
trouble is we get panicky when
prices come down and think we
must unload. This unloading is u.s.
ually done to the benefit of the
other fellow. If they are good for
him, they are good for you, so let's
not get the impression that we are
going out of the sheep business. 1t
is too important to our food supply.
Hog prices are still on a profit
able basis, around $11.00 per cwt.
The bulk of the hogs for the coast
trade, however, continue to come
from the middlewest, nearly 1000
miles of transportation, with the
accompanying shrink and death
loss, to say nothing Of the freight
charges.
So far as supply is concerned,
there is nothing on the horizon to
indicate anything like price slump
but we must be mindful of the fact
that all classes of foods are rela-
lively cheap. notwithstanding the
increased purchasing power of the
workingman's dollar, he is getting
less dollars, hence his purchasing
power is less. Under normal CON
ditions, we can assume with reason
able certainty that where the sup
ply decreases, price Increase. but
what is sufficient supply under
normal conditions may be too much
now. 1t is we'll to keep in mind
that the price of feed is on low
basis and it is worth a lot more
money converted into meat foods
on the ranch than if sold as feed
on the present market.

have taken fright at the very thought
of the new clothes. And in many
cases these are the same women who
"a year or so ago were complaining
about the low waistline and raising
eyebrows at the Shortness of skirts.

one of New York's smartest shops, and

women of taste among our clientele
have accepted the new silhouette, with
its charming feminine outline. with en-
thusiasm."
She remarks that the American
woman shows judgment in her reac
ton to the new mode. She has re-
tanned the practical short skirt and
straight tailored lines for daytime
wear. but adopted clinging lines and
captivating curves for her evening
gowns. Truly there has been too
much ado about nothing in this con.
troversy concerning the length of
skirts. for the sensible woman follows
the clock. and as the day lengtnens SO
do her skirts. For sports wear she
chooses them just enough longer than
the skirts of last year to be more
graceful and becoming
Many of the opponents of the new
gowns declare that corsets must be
worn with them and that corsets are
ruinous to health. From a study of
the new clothes at their best and from
talks with their creators nothing
could be farther from the truth.
Women who needed cOrsets before the
debut of the new styles will need them
now, women who have good figures
will be able TO display them to the
best advantage in the new clothes
without resorting to artificial aids to
good figure. The new silhouette
will indeed encourage the return of
moderate curves which women may
regain and control through healthy
regulation of their diet Health and
beauty 60 hand in hand. and women
must have both in order to wear the
new fashions with success.

New Frocks Take
on Simple Grace
Intricate Cuts, Incrustations,
Godets, Shirring, Among
Features.

The simplicity of the new mode is
not arrived at by simple means, de-
clares a fashion writer in the New
York Herald Tribune. The woman who
thinks that the old type chemise frock

ural waistline instead of at the hips
will be woefully disappointed. Look at
a Patou, a MOlyneux or q Worth model
with your eyes half closed and you
will see long, graceful and wonder

frock closely and you will find that
this simple grace is produced by means
of the most intricate cuts, incrusta-
tons, godets, tucks, shirring and
veining. Without these there would
be no movement, no rhythm in the
gown.
The neckline has assumed a new

Women who are devoted to the two

it will remain in the mode with the
slinky one-pieee frocks. It remains
but, oh, how changedl The hell (lr
must be belted) is placed at the
helgher waistline. There is often a

O N II EAR ING
CHILDREN from
CRIB TO COLLEGE
Complied by the Editors Of
THE PARENTS MAGAZINE

Can any one doubt that the proper
study of mankind must begin with the
child; that the proper study Of the
child must begin in the home and in
preschool days, even in prepayment
days? The consummation devoutly TO
be wished is an enlightened American
parenthood. The public and private
schools, the colleges and universities,
have a technique for teaching and a
system for reaching into the homes Of
the nation that no other institutions or
organizations can ever have; and
therefore the logical place to teach
potential and actual parents what they
should know about children Is in the
school, college and university.
John B. Watson says, "While most
motion pictures are an insult to our
adult organization, nevertheless they
form part of the childs environment.
believe in bringing children up from
their infancy to face everything there
is to be faced in their environment,
and to so organize them about life in
general that such things rs movies and
sex and crime and death fit into their
general scheme of life"
The test of a good housekeeper is
one glance at her bureau drawers and
closets. The living room may be in
order and the kitchen immaculate, but
the real test of thoroughness is seen
in the condition of those corners which
the casual caller is not expected to
see. But what the casual caller does
not see, the children of the house
see daily. If the grown-uPs in the fami-
ly are disorderly; If bureau drawers
are always crammed to overflowing
and closets are in chaos, 1t is no won
der that the youngsters strew their
toys about and never hang up their
clothes.
Raw cabbage in salad or sandwiches
Is truly a health food. Orange, grape
fruit and lemon beverages, salads and
desserts have a place in every fami-
ly's meals, as does bountiful use of
tomatoes. In making cream of tomato
soup, it IS best to leave out the soda
so that vitamine G will not be de-
stroyed. To do this without having
curdled soup, pour the hot, strained
tomato juice into the hot white sauce
just before the soup is served.
The Sheppard-Towner law which

this much needed bill Under the com

splendid work has been done-and
the lowered death rate of babies is
an incentive to continue. So is the
slightly lowered death rate of mothers
in child birth. The need for such
provision for maternity and baby care
as provided by the bill is acute and
the work so well begun should go on.

The common cause of digestive diff.
