-Nnt before n was nigh time

in the kitchen All kinds of ideas and
devices are being produced, many OF
which are assured of a most successful
future. Some people find 1t difncult to
climb a chair to reach anything. A new
seat has been designed in which such
climbing is entirely obviated. 1t Is fitted
on the rear side with three or four
convenient steps which can be used
when the chair Is turned around. This
ladder will prove all the more acceptable
because it cannot possibly tip over.
The kitchen cupboard has been vastly
improved. When the bottom doors are
opened, the lower edge Is automatically
drawn out, so that everything placed
on It Is Immediately accessible. Bend
ing and kneeling are now things Of the
past. When the working slab Is drawn
out, two supports emerge at the same
time and the slab is quite firm.
The partitions above the slab have
roller blind arrangement opening at
the side. which does not disturb work
on the slab. The kitchen table Is also
supplied with a leaf which can be
DIR avn out, which saves the table con-
Siderably. There are two drawers IN
the table, one over the other. The
lower Is lined with tin SO that 1t may
serve for keeping bread. There Is also a
plate basket suspended from the side.
and underneath the table. Thus much
more table space has been provided
without interfering with the seating ac-
commodations at the table.

Liquor and Onions
Hold Interest In Chile.
FL Mercurio, Santiago.-Whne most
of the population are eagerly discuss
ing whether or not this country snail
sxtirpate the liquor business, other more
| reticent and calculating elements are
using the concentration of attention
upon the aforesaid economic debate to
monopolize onions. One designing
wretch, it is estimated. has made way
with no less than 100000 of these
tubers from truck farms in the out
skirts of Santiago. The organizer OF
this wholesale depreciation has APP
parently sent trucks to the garden in
the early morning hours. ConfederAtes
accompanying the vehicles speedily
gather the bulbs into sacks, load the
sacks on the trucks and get away be-
fore the farmers have any knowledge
Of their presence.
Need Seen for Standard
Agriculture and Stock Terms.

Before the subsequent exhibitions, We
suggest Standardization Of the terms

avoid the confusion that has been oc-
caSioned in the show just terminated,
In which many exhibitors Of Spanish
descent used designations not accept

dustTy.
