Keeping Onions Through the Winter

There are many ways of keeping good
sound ripe, dry onions The great point is to
keep them dry. But You must recolIrct that
even ripe. dry onion contains at least eighty
per cent. Of water, and when large mass of
I them are kept together they are liable to
sweat and the skins and tops become damp
and If the temperature is above freezing they
will throw out roots and commence to grow,
just they would in the damp soil. II il i,
necessary to keep them in large mass. put
them Iii "A dry place, such aS shed or barn
then they will freeze solid, and stay frozen till
wanted in spring. They must he well covered
to keep them from thaW!ng, and You should
avoid putting them in barn with basement
underneath where horses. cattle, sheep or hogs
are kept, as the warmth from the animals
might thaW them out
They can be placed three or four inches deep
on shelves in dry cellar, or in slat-boXe>
holding about bushcl each. The lower boxes
should be placed on boards, and not on the eel
lar floor. The boxes may be piled up one
above the other, but i'll such way To
''break Joints" and admit of circulation OF
air all round and through every box. In other
words, do not place the ends and sides of the
boxes close to each other. Leave a space of
two or three inches between the boxes. A lit
tie ingenuity may be required 10 stack them
up, and il is well to think out the method be-
fore you commence, as to know exactly
what you are going to do. At any rate, see
that the onions are dry before storing them in
the cellar or house, and no not pack the boxes
too close, and give frequent ventilation and
change of air by opening the doors and win
dows. Keep az near the freezing point as
possible, and see that the cellar is clean and
that there is no damp organic matter any
where. American Agricuturist for October.

In 1882 the three masted schooner Maynard sum.
ncr was built at Rockland. She was supplied with
auxiliary steam power, and was the first vessel of
her class built in this country In addition to the
sails of an ordinary three masted schooner she had
propeller to assist locomotion in moderate wealth
cr. The miZZen mast is iron, hollow, and serves
the double purpose of a mast and smoke stack. At
ter fair trial the steam power has been decided a
failure and the vessel is having the machinery re.
moved, and in future will rely upon her sails
alone. The auxiliary power has some advantages
but the extra expense of running it more than of
sets them. Two crews have to be employed as the
steam laws will not allow sailors to work the ma.
chinery. The steam power was designed to assist
the vessel in making quicker passages. We arc
