FARM AND HOUSEHOLD.

Winter fruit is usually kept III cellars
with other vegetables. The usual dis
advantages Of this plan are that they are
too warm and too damp, and the air is
too much laden with vapors from other
stores. If kept in the cellar under the
dwelling-house it should be entirely
separated from other cellars, and be
kept ut a lower temperature than pota-
toes and squashes, and the vegetables
usually slowed in the cellar 4 better
plan is to have a cellar under a grain
barn, and devoted to the use Of fruit
only. This should be kept open during
the day as much as possible, without
danger Of freezing the fruit 1t should
be we'll ventilated by fues into chin
neys, or going up to the roof, according
to location.
Care must be taken, however, to keep
the fruit, as nearly as possible, at the
same temperature. One or more Their
momcters should be fixed to the walls,
and if it become evident that the air
admitted In the middle of the day raises
the temperature, the cellar should be
closed until this effect is no longer pro
duccd.
When placed in the barrels, the APP
pies should be carefully assorted,
whether for home use OF the market
Table apples, cooking apples, and
apples to be fed ont, should each be
placed b. themselves, and disposed of
accordingly. The best apples should be
firmly headed up, and labeled with tho
name and quality of the fruit, and the
date of gathering, with any other de
sirable memoranda. By the way, if
people used such memoranda more
than they do, it would often be IA source

that each sort may be used only while

mgly If there be many OF one sort, or
of several sorts, that ripen simultane-
ously, som OF them might be used be-

cooking. They are far better for such
use than if left to be cut up when half
decayed; for cooking is sort of quick
ripening, which breaks down the hard
tissues and develops iayors before they
come naturally to perfection But cook
ing has no power to restore favors to
fruit which has passed its prime, and
slightly immature apples have a better

Winter Care 81 Dairy ~iocI>.

We can heartily approve the posi-
tions taken by Professor Arnold in the
following paragraph written for the
New York Tribune, and commend the
suggestions to our readers
TO illustrate the economy of com
fort In the winter care Ct stock, | will
state what q long and close observation
in wintering dairy cows has developed.
\ half century or more ago the farmers
ri New York were less careful of their
animals than they are now. 1t WAS no
uncommon occurrence then for farmers
to let their cattle run al winter with no
other protection than board fence or
an open shed at the side Of the yard,
and when they did 50 1t cost, according
to size. ; To , tons of hay To winter a
COW, averaging for Is weeks y to 30
pounds of hay per day. When they
built barns aud sided them up with
green lumber, SO that when the boards
shrunk the cracks between them We're
half an inch or more wide, and the sta
bles We're soarranged that thewind which
whistled through these cracks swept all
the heat radiatiug from the bodies Of
the sanctioned cows up INTO the loft
and out at the cracks above,
the ease was not much improved.
some saving in Waste was effected. and
that was about all. But when these
The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1874-10-24

open barns were succeeded by tiobt
ones, boarded with matched st1,ff veil
seasoned, and the stables so arranged
as to utilize the heat radiatino from iba
cows bodies, there was a great dim;nI,
milton IN the cost of keeping. A SEWN,
ol 1dalfd OF the keep formerly used
was ELECTED. Eighteen to twenty
POUNDS OF Lay day kept the cows in
better condition in the comfortabla
stables than u to 80 could do in the
Old ones, or III the open yard. When
ti8nt barns tor cows first began to be
built III central New York, dairvmen
were perfectly surprised at the saving If

again, heard them declare from estimat-
ing, what | found it to be true bvac1ual
weighing, that tight and warm stable
saved fully one-third of the fodder
formerly used in the open ones for a
long time so generally in use [ would
suggest, II they have not already done
1t, that the dalrymen and stock keepers
who have suffered from drouth can not
IN any other way cheaper the cost of
Winterlng their stock SO much as by
providing for them the most comfort
able quarters they possibly can
But there IS one consideration which
should not be overlooked in arranging
for a tight barn, and that is proper ven
tllatlon. The owner of a tight barn.
unless he makes proper arrangement
of this kind, viii soon have what is fitlv
described as g foul, reeking stable"
Cold air Is not necessarily good air, nor
IS warm air necessarily bad air, al
though the chances are that air made
warm by animal radiation of heat will
become vitiated. The safeguard is eff
tectlve and properly arranged ventila-
ton. This ventilation is essential for
the comfort which Professor Arnold so
