HOW TO CONSERVE FOOD .
A most useful series of food - conserving demonstrations is taking place at present in the large central hall of the reorganised Econ- omy Exhibition , in the new L.C.C. building , Westminster Bridge Road , London . From the opening day of the Exhibition its most attrac- tive features for the women visitors have been the stalls at which elementary fruit bottling and canning were illustrated by representatives of the Horticutural Branch of the Food Pro- duction Department . So successful have these been that on the invitation of the promoters . of the exhibition the Food Production Depart- ment has now taken possession of the large central hall , formerly occupied by the French market . Here Lady Glover has organised four kitchens with a view to showing , visitors how various forms of food can be conserved in the simplest possible manner . At one of the
The only place where animals can be dis- kitchens , demonstrations are given in fruit and sected within 14 miles of Leominster .

Cloth Tops .
For several months there has been a great scarcity of glace kid until at last , supplies are almost unobtainable . Manufacturers , in order to husband the meagre stocks at heir disposal , have have introduced boots with cloth legs -as their standard lines .
Economy , therefore , is the deciding factor in the adoption of a fashionable style as a utility product .
We are now showing the latest designs in these elegant boots - one of which we illustrate . You will be agreeably surprised at the smart appearance they present , and the remarkable comfort in wear .
Our foresight in ordering twelve months ahead of requirements , enables us
to offer them at competitive prices .
