Shortenings are usually blends of all three with the major portion consisting of edible tallow. The oils are blended and homogenized to form spreadable solids at mom temperature. Cooking oils consist of blended or pure vegetable oils. Canadi- an per capita consumption of these products amounted to 17 lbs. in 1973 with com- mercial consumption ac- counting for 90 per cent of the total. -- A world-wide shortage of edible oils in all classes has driven up price bids for available supplies.

In a memorandum to the province's school board chairmen, Mr. Wells stated that the expenditure ceilings for an elementary pupil in l975 will be $876, an in- crease of $172 over this year. The ceiling per sec- ondary school student will be $1.391, up $l60 over this year. In addition, school boards may spend an extra $80 per elementary pupil, if they sochoose. In his memo to the chair- men Mr. Wells stated: "One cannot over-empha- size the importance of the early years of a child's edu- cation.

Manu- facturers have absorbed some of these costs but a portion has to' be borne by theconsumer. Consumers should expect continued high prices for shortening and cooking oils until later this year when retail prices may decline slightly due to anticipated increases in edible oil sup- plies. Since the bulk of these products are consumed commercially, retail prices for processed foods utiliz- ing shortenings and cook- ing oils should reflect the changes in prices of edible oils. society.
