The price of rub ber has risen enorm ously since the outbreak of the war, and if the local product is of good quality It is quite possible that a profitable industry may be developed in the Apayao country.

Weatherly Ice Cream i A method of conducting trade auc | tions in which an electric announcer takes the place of the calls of the auctioneer for bids Is described by P. L. Edwards, clerk to the Commer cial Attache at The Hague, Nether lands. The unuouncer consists of a , large dlul tliut I h provided with an index liund. The face of the dial is marked with prices, increasing in clockwise fashion, and the hand is set at a price above that which the goodB offered will probubly bring. It Is then slow ly moved to lower and lower figures until som e trader Indi cates u desire to take the goods. Electric push buttons are connected with the dial, which the traders press when a price satisfactory to them Is reached When a button Is pressed the number of the trader appears on the dial, and the goods go to him at the price expressed by the index hand Fast sellin g and lack of con I fusion are the chief benefits derived from the announcer’s use. The British army boot Is made from very stout chrome-tanned leath er. It is Interesting to note that what is called the "front" of the hoot is unlike the average civilian hoot, cut all In one piece, right from the toe to the heel, and seamed up at the back The toe contains, among other things, a plate of hard Iron, which Is nailed on underneath. On the whole the British Tommy has a small foot, the average sizeH being seven und eight. Compare this with that of his Russian brother Here we have uu averuge of nine and ten. The upper portion of the Cosaaek boot reaches to within an inch or two of the knee and has a buckle at the top Its construction is very sim ilar to the British boot, the e s sential difference being the boot Is not stitched round the "welts" us Is the British The fertile plain In which Damas cus is situated is about thirty miles in diam eter and is due to the river Barada which Is probably the Abaua of Scripture.
