be crushed from -‘s ton of good
grapes. At the maximum price for
grapes of 82.50 a onto or 80 pounds
this costs makers $160.00 for suffi-
cient grapes to manutacture 115
gallons of wine. or approximately 35
cents s quart.

Greet quantities of grapes iind
their way into the presses to emerge
after giving their Juice as pomsce.
sometimes used to make grape cider.
for to swine. or discarded as useless.
depending upon the whims of the
wine makers.

The demand for grapes has been
mounting with the passing of the
years since prohibition. California
growers of grapes were among the
most consistent o ponents of the
prohibition amen mentlprevious to
its passage on the grounds that it
would destroy their markets. How-
ever, it increased the demand for
grapes to such unprecedented
heights that the growers are now
ardent prohibitionists. it is report-
ed In the past several years thou-
sands of acres of vineyards have
been added to California's fruit
country with enormous profits ac-
cruing therefrom.

The state 0 Michigan will also‘

ship many the sends of the tons of
grapes into markets this year. some
of them finding their way into this
city. The frost reported occurring
in many parts of the country during
the past ~ck has ripened the
grapes unexpectedly in these sec-
tions and the grapes will be shipped
to market sooner than was expected
as a result.
Not only are grape disciples pro-
paring for the open season on wine.
Pldorberry hunters have been out
in force for the past week seeking
this strong winemaker which grows
in clusters on bushes in swampy
places. The eiderberries. however.
are not ripening very fast and a
treat is needed in order to make
them ready for the wine presses.

Other berries and fruits—even
vegetables—era being used by the
makers of wine.‘ Many use boots and
ciai mto produce s. wine that com-
pares. favorably with the port of
days past. Wild and domestic cher-
ries are used also to minufacturo
wine.

SHINGLED HOUSE HAS CHARM

There is a charm and refinement
about a shingled house that many
other dwellings lack. The sugges-
tion of quiet rusticity. subtly con-
veyed. makes the house an inviting
haven to return to.

Several other features distinguish
this design.

The doomsy. with its small.
wrought iron handrails. might have
come from old Belem of the 18th
century. The porch is shaded and

ROME. (AH—The Italian Gov-
ernment is prepared to face a tre-
mendous industrial crisid as a re-
suit otthe financial donation cam-

paign launehéd by the Council of
Ministers. The Associated Press has
been told by Signor Grandi. the
Under Secretary of State for Foreign
Affairs.

"No other Government in Europe
could carry out the program we
have embarked upon without piec-
ing machine guns in the ,streets."
Si or ‘Grandi ’declsred. haserting
that the government considered the
adoption of this 'deiletlon program
the 'most important step taken
since Premier Mussolini announced
that he would crush all political
opposition.

Intact. he added. this later pro-
fleet. was an experiment fraught
with greater risks than the earlier.

dustry is punctured. sfhere will b!
many coilepaes- accompanied no
doubt by much suffering. But it
is the only honest path open to
us and Mussolini in his decisive way
has determined to see it through to
a finish.

"Instead of instituting the gold
basis for money or artificially fixing
an exchange rate. we are going to

ueeevery ounce of what force we
have to revsluate the lira by the
more dangerous but more honest
means which, when successful, will
put Italy on a solid and unshakebie
financial footing."
"Naturally. vigorous deflation will
cause the loss of many foreign mar-
kets." added Signor Grandl. "and
this'wiil interfere with the economic
battle for the improvement of our

ever. the government is preparing
measures to aid industry.

in Mussolini's sagscity.

"Italy is primarily a. nation of the
middle classes. who must be taken
care of first even though the richer
classes and the proletariat suffer dur~

J‘One immediate advantege of this
new financial program will be a. re-

BUILDING AND
.LIVING'CDSTS
COMPARED

WASHINGTON, D. C.-—Of all the
different building materials common-
ly used in the construction of dwell-
ing houses, the wooden shingle has
shown the least advance since pre-
war years. according to the Monthly
Review of Wholesale Prices of
Commodities. issued today by the
U. B. Department of Labor. The
price index of the most commonly
used shingles has advanced only 33.2
since 1913, though some shingles
have advanced 69.4 in the sumo
period. and slate rooting 202.7, uc-
cordlng to the National Lumber
Manufacturers' Association. Lum-
ber. as a whole. has advanced 81.4
since 1913; common brick 104.3;
cement from 68.4 to 96.6 according
to location of the plant; limo 117.4:
sand 03.6: crushcd stone 94.4; and
gravel 89.4.

All commodities have increased
60.7 in the lost 13 years: building
materials as a group. 71:5. The lat-
ter figure is apparently not so high
as might be inferred. because struc-

 

tural, stool, virtually unused in
dwelling houses. is included in the
average.

In the some period farm products
have gone up 40.8: foods, 53.13;
clothing materials. 73.x; fuel, 77:
metals and metal products. 26.2;
house-furnishing goods. 61.1.

, tract to build a. residence and garage
