sufler the studios to when the coat is opened. Quite a good way to get" over the difHcullv is to buv a small and really pretty button io match "the colour of the lining. This is held inside the coat opposite the or.ginal, and the two are sewn on together. Not only does the little bi.tton look nice, but it adds considerably to the strength of the outside one and tafiea away any strain which might cause the material to tear.

12tt, at exaotly Half-Pnioo BALL LAWRENCE, tnsS.annch EXERCISE FOR DOGS The Puppy and trie Adult BY A BREEDER The countryside is not the best place to exercise a young ilisr. A hard pavement or tarmac low) is better. Young dogs, above all ot Ihe terrier breeds, must have their pads strengthened; otherwise they will never achieve the true cat foot." Galloping about on luif and rough fields will not effect The heel will drop, the pads of the feet will soften, and the nails will grow too long. If puppies were given a certain amount of load exercise for their first year their feet would grow into the pioper shape. It is natuial for all growing animals to be moing about, but this is not always possible for puppies, and then, unless great care is iaken, the joints will not grow as they should.

"Cow hocks" are an example. The cause is a-weak thigh muscle, and the best remedy is plenty of load exercise. It will strengthen "the muscle, and so pull the hocks square. Dogs which always, have their run the fields are often afiaid bi traffic They are lightened in a town and shy of other people. A dog which goes for a walk on the road becomes used to bustle and life.

He will soon lose his puppy nervousness, his character will widen, and as a watch-dog he will be twice as good. When a dog is first exercised on the road the pads of his feet may become sore and crack. If they are treated with boracic ointment, when lie poes to bed. they will soon heal, and the pads will become hard and firm. As a rule, young puppies are given too much regular exercise; those over six months do not have enough.

Puppies are better if they are allowed to play about, amuse themselves with an old stip-per, and become tired on their own account Long walks exhaust them and give them bow legs. But when they ha'e reached six months regular walks are the best and only way to keep them fit. the rush of fresh vegetables offered her by the gardener, there are other times when she has regretfully to place orders with her greengrocer, yet how rarely is any attempt made to equalise the supply by a definite planning of the vegetable parden. It should be remembered that the winter vegetables are the most economic to grow, for it is these that are the most expensive to buy. There are many points to consider when planning the vegetable supplies and when the seeds.

The problem of rotating the crops must be con-sideied as well as the quantity of the indispensable vegetables wnicn vegetables can he relied upon to produce supplies durina the winter and early and which of the moie unusual vegetables snould be grown to vary the menu and avoid monotony. There are two main reasons why crop rotation should be seriously considered. The first, is that crops impoverish the-: soil to a greater or lees degree ot ine particular food that they require. In order, therefore, to give nature a chance to replenish her larder other crops that for the mo.st part can find their nutriment in different elements contained in the soil should occupy the vacant positions. The second rcas-ou has a bearing on the iiiat in so far as crops that ait; starved of their proper amount of food aie a more easy prey to the ravages nf disease.

when a certain disease has a hold on a family of plants, Ihe only effective way to rid the soil of that pest is to remove the host plant that encourages its evil erowth. Therefore it may be taken for ceitain that most veeetables dislike cultivation for two successive seasons on the same site. Another sound reason for carefully con-Mderiiitr crop lotation is that certain crops follow other crops with ad vantage to themselves, on the principle 1hat food rejected by one crop can utilised to the full by the plants that follow on. To Cive an example. After the early potatoes have been lemovod, i-tump-rooted carrots make an follow-on, and when hey have been cleared cabbage can use the site.

Onions can then be the next crop, to bo followed durum the third season by a leguminous crop There will be some people who will find their vegetable plot too small to rairy out these ideas of crop rotation, in which case they should throw their energies into really trenching as a eorrective, and should bring up and cultivate the suhnil in order to piovent the evils indicated. February Although February is a mouth of great possibilities, these are not always realised. There is a great deal that maybe done if the weather is favourable, especially towards the end of the month, when seeds may be sown and plants put out. If March is a bad month, as it so often is, then this eaily work will tepay nifny times in early pioduce. The seeds that may be sown out of doors in a sheltered position are early dwarf-Krowing peas.

broad beans, spinach, ladish, shorthorn carrots, paisnips, early cabbage and early cauliliower, leeks, and onions. With the exception of the last four, all will be sown in the positions where they are to mature. The beans should be sown about three inches deep, the peas nearly two inches deep, and the cauliflowers anil cabbage nearly half an inch deep. Lettuce and parsley may also be sown at the end nf the" month, and if the weather is very favourable it is worth while trying to steal a crop of turnips on a warm border. useful hint is to sprinkle a layer of dust-dry soil on the seeds before covering with the ordinary loam.

Soot scattered along the rows of peas will prevent the spairows playing their tricks. SALE PRICE. Size Sft. 2in. 5ft.

The sales started dismally enough, when Manchester was fog-bound and no bar aains could lure customers to town. Later on, however, when the weather brightened to the customary rain, there was plentv of bustle in the shops, and even some exciting moments of scrim' n.ace at the glove and stockine counters. This week the exclusive little shops are offering last season's Paris models at tempt. ngly low prices.

It requires coura-re to resist twelve guinea gowns of gold tissue marked 2. Flimsy, luxurious dresses seem almost to be given away this week, as the little shops have very limited storage room. It will be a good thine for the ordinary woman with a slender purse when the windows are once more discreetly decorated with a couple ot exclusive gowns at a quite exclusive price. Fur Coats One of the things which every observant woman, noticed during the sales was the astonishing cheapness of fur coats. Some of them droDDed more than their cus tornary price, and a wide choice of rich and gorgeous garments was offered to the purchaser with twenty guineas, or less, to spend.

The possession or lack of a fur coat still marks a definite line among Manchester women. It is no longer a line dividing poverty from wealth. The fur coat became democratic during the war, when, made of natural musquash, it was mdely called the munition workers overall," and it is still worn and very properly by women of every class if they happen to like its warmth and its beauty. The distinction between fur coat owners and despisers seems to be one of occupation rather than purse. Very few professional women wear fur coats, and very few leisured women nowadays, are without them.

It is possible that the bargains oi the sales have won over some of the wage-earners, but if so they will display their new treasures with an air of apology and mur-murings about feeling the cold so much or needing something to wear in the evenings. Treading the Old Paths A very gieat deal is written, spoken, and thought about careers for women in thfe days. Perhaps one is led to think that women are advancing into what were masculine preserves rather more rapidly than they really aie. Because there are a few women in the world of aeroplanes who have distinguished themselves as much as the very best men, a few women barristers whose student piowess made masculine aspirants uncomfortable, and occasional outstanding women in most occupations nowadays, it does not necessarily mean that the stage has been reached when hosts of girls "are entering upon all manner of careers. We must not regard the particular as the geneial too freely, and the page of recent appointments in the last annual report of the Manchester High School for Girls is an interesting little study.

Here is a school turning out girls excellently equipped for the beginnings of a career or further education for a career. What do thev go to Out of about forty girls, twelve appear to be teachers. fifteen secretaries or, presumably, clerks or typists, three nurses, three doctors, one a millinery apprentice, one in a domestic post at a university hostel, and only three in what might be called modern occupations from the feminist point of view. One of these is a demonstrator of electrical apparatus, one is training with an' adding machine firm, and one is training ia house-property management for a housing scheme. THE DISCOVERY FOG-BOUND Watched by Blue Whales (From Sir Douglas Mawson.) On Board the Discovery, uary 26.

This morning we moved west, and are now in 240 fathoms of water in latitude 65,10, long. 109.30. This is dead reckoning of our position, for the sun has been obscured by fog for several days. While thus fog and weather bound we are still able to prosecute much scientific work. To-day the marine life has been particularly abundant.

Professor Johnston and other zoologists are working overtime to deal effectually with the catches. Netting taken between 500 and' 550 fathoms surpasses anything thus far experienced at such a distance below the surface. In this instance there is more life in deeper water than nearer the surface. Many varieties of fish in addition to multitudes of invertebrate life are represented. "While one of the nets was being hauled in two blue whales became inter ested in the operation.

After examining the steel wire of the hauling cable at the stern of the ship one of the whales followed the cable down towards the net. For a time we contemplated with anxiety the possibility of securing this undesirably large and embarrassing catch, but the monster evidently lost interest before reaching the net.

ing, then planting will be possible. It is important always to be on the look-out for sowing and planting opportunities, for the more that can be done with safety dining February the lighter will be the work in the busy month of March. The following may be planted: Shallots, chives, onions from the autumn sowing, red and white cabbage, lettuce. Jerusalem artiehokes, horseradish, ihubaib, and heibs. If a v.uy sheltered border can he found and time be spared to cover the plants fiom frost, then a few early potatoes may be tried.

It must he realised that gieat success may not attend this effort, but it all goes well those early potatoes are veiy piecious. They should be phinled about four inches deep. The Ground The ground should be well and deeply dug and heavily manured for such crops as broccoli, cabbage, savoys, cauliflowers, leeks, It is unadviable to give fresh manure in the springtime to loot crops such as beets, carrots, and parsnips, foi it will tend to encourage foiked loots. Well-iotted manure should dug into the site during the winter, and the more evenly it is mixed with the soil the better. The soil for root crops cannot be too deeply trenched.

The ground for onions should always be firm. Ravages by the onion fly can be kept at bay by scatteung soot," lime, and salt ovei the plot after planting, sowing, or hoeing. The seedbed for cabbages, curly greens, and others of the brassica family should be of rather poor soil so as to encourage stuidy seedlinss. When sown on too lich a soil the seedlings make a rank growth that does not tiansplant well. Make the earliest sowincs on the warmest boideis or on a specially pie-pared plot when the soil is heavy.

A sprinkling of fine sand over the early sown beds will help to prevent the soil from caking on the surface. Soil loosened by the hoe every ten days is warmer than the solid soil, and warm soil promotes growth Do not worry whether there are weeds or not, but hoe between the early crops whenever the soil if sufficiently dry a.

OPEN SATURDAYS TO 6 p.m. POLISH EMIGRANT TRAFFIC English Companies and Governroent: (Frora a Correspondent.) Warsaw, January 26. It was announced in these columns on December.

17 last that the Polish Government had issued a Decree requiring that foreign shipping companies engaged in the transport of Polish emigrants to the American Continent must either establish direct services jfrorn a Polish port (Danzig or Gdynia) or suffer the cancellation of their operating concessions in this country. They were given until January 15 to agree to comply with the new regulation or otherwise their activities as to emigrant traffic must be liquidated by June 30, 1931. Since it is manifestly impossible for British steamship companies to establish direct sailings from Poland to North America, and equally so for French companies, ich handle the bulk of emigrant traffic to South America, it was abundantly clear that the purpose of this Decree was to drive foreign shipping companies out of Poland, so that the Government could salvatre some of its investment in the former Baltic-American Line, which now runs under the Polish nag between Gdynia and New York. At the back of all this, of course, is the political object of buildins ud a Polish mercantile marine and making it appear that loaynia ana trie Uorridor" are indispensable to Poland's development.
