DISCRETION BEATS VAloR.
Five Men on Guard on the Mud
Flats Wisely Retire.
They Say Forty Armed Sassafs Were
Sent Against Them-More
Piles FeiIed.

Tho war over the possession OF the mud
bats At1ll continues. So far, the only thing
that has fallen has been piles. On Monday
night fifty piles were cut down BY the oys-
termen, led by Peter wickstsom. On
Tuesday the pile-driyer engaged In the
work mad driven IS piles on the four blocks
owned by the syndicate made UP OF Messrs.
Hill, ishorey. and others, to replace those
cut down on the previous night. The syn
dictate placed five valiant men 20 guard
theri interests and plies during the still
watches Of Tuesday night
At inidnlghi's cherries hour the oyster
men assembled in force and in several
beats and made an attack on the syndi.
Gates IS piles. The syndicate's little band

men were armed with axes and Ia with
other weapons. The IA stood guard,
while the rs chopped, and in an incredibly
short time all bat two Of the IS piles were
cut down To the waters edge. These two
would also have been cut down like q

were unsteady on their legs, and the

prove expensive.
The pile-driyer was at work yesterday on

them or streams passing through them
are noted for keeping apples and vege;a-
bles fresh. even until late the next season.
The water acts a. a regulator Of both tenn
perature and moisture. These methods
of storage approach the conditions speci-
fed above. and the nearer the approach
the better the result.
If these conditions are favorable for
the preservation of fruit in all its stages
of ripene>s, the question arises: How
NAV they be the best and most eConom-
Ically secured: The creameries, and milk
rooms now in Use in the Western
States present the most satisfac-
tory solution of the problem, as i'll them
the above conditions are economically re-
allied in their most perfect form. These
rooms are inclosed on the top. bottom and
sides with four dead air spaces, with
double doors for entrance, and they are
made nearly air tight as possible.
Fresh air is supplied at the bottom
through a subterranean passage about
twelve rods long and eight to ten feet be
low the surface of the earth. This passage
is two feet wide and one foot high,
formed of stone work. Through ii a
constant current of air is passing into
the room. The temperature of this air
Is controlled and regulated by that of the
earth at the depth of the passage. Moist
ure is deposited if the temperature is in
creased, so as to give nearly a uniform
amount in the room.
Professor Arnold is authority for say
ing that while the extremes of heat and
cold in those States vary from 40 de-
grees to forty degrees below, these rooms
will not vary in temperature over tive de
grees during the year, uniformly remain
ing near fifty degrees. The air is pure,
and the room is perfect rs milk-room.
Ventilation is perfect, with uniform tenn
perature and moisture.
Such a building need not be expen-
sive. 1t can be built of coarse lumber,
the air spaces sheeted with building pa
per, while the stone passage can be put
down for from S. to S. per rod, depend
ing upon the hardness of the soil and
the proximity of stone. We have no
knowledge that any such appliance has
been used for keeping fruits and vege-
tables, but it seems to present just the
conditions necessary for retaining every
valuable quality in fruits and in vege-
tables, and for checking decay.-Ameri
