That modern houskeeping and motherhood are no longer the skilled and arduous professions they once were is shown ly the fact that a large and increas- ing number of married women who have children hold jobs at the same time. You can find a few of thess in almost any business organization, and many of them in journalism and the arts. A good many of these murried working women not driven pri- marily by necessity, but have revolted against the tedium and idleness cf married life and have sought other employment, often in the face of ob- tions on the part of the husband, who egotistically desires to be the sole support of the family.

In 1918 the consumption was 740,000,000 pounds. The decrease is mostly due to the fact that the early part of 1919 was upset by labor troubles, unsettled conditions and the uncertainty as to whether the country was at peace or at war. “As yet there has not been much| activity in the field.

As yet the wool growers and the wool buyers are still apart, the majority of them stating that their wool will be worth from 70 cents up, the buyers! stating that, with the exception of the best quality of the fine staples, this price is out of reason, While growers are talking strong on consignments, as a rule the dealers do not take this se- riously, sfating that their past expe- rience has taught them that the grow: ers prefer to sell outrigh rather thar consign and wait for their money.
