GOOD ROOT CELLAR.

1t Should BE Located Midway KetweA7
the Garden and tlie Barn.
Believing fully with the eminent di-
vine, who, in reference to the custom
of absorbing deaths by typhoid fever,
diphtheria, etc, to ''providential dis
pensations, said that if people would
look to their drain pipes and cellars
they would see that the evil was not
from Providence, SO, in setting up our
lares and penates we decided to use
some forethought and keep out such
visitations. Much puzzling and thought
resulted in a determination to build a
root cellar midway between the kitch-
en-, garden and barn and save, the cost
of it in doctors and undertakers' bills.
We had q space about eighteen or
twenty feet long and ten feet wide
marked off and dug down more than
five feet Then posts were inserted at
the corners and at proper intervals on
the sides, and boards nailed to them,
thus forming solid wall. The space
between this wall and the outside wall
of earth, about five inches, was filed
in with sawdust, On the bottom few
tiles were laid to prevent moisture or
seepage. A good plank floor was then
put down and partitions built for vari-
GUS bins. The roof sloped steeply
down and touched the walled up earth
outside. A layer of felt paper between
the boards and SHINGLES which formed
the thick roof supplied. extra warmth.
Two small chimney-like openings
with adjustable covers on the roof
gave ventilation, and at the west ex-
tremity was removable trap door,
three feet by two feet, which could be
lifted TO fill more eypeditioisly from
the wagon the great baskets of mangel
wurzels, carrots etc, for the faithful
cows and horses The roots were
stored in a receptacle built expressly
for the purpose in the west end of this
root cellar. A hallway on the north
side made it easy to reach the bins and
compartments which were all on the
south.
A door, like an outside collar door,
opens on few steps leading down to
an inner upright door of plank covered
with felt paper. This door opens into
the cellar proper, and here for ten
years we have stored roots and vege-
tables. The annoyance Of opening the
house cellnr door in very cold weather,
the picking over of fruits and vege-
tables, and the disorder incident to
these operations, are all done away
with, and our root cellar j., an indis-
pensable storehouse on o,tr place

Discussing the magnitude of 1,oOo,-
600 bushels of wheat" a broker is
quoted as saying: If 1000. 900 bushels
were loaded on freight cars, 500 bush
els to a car, it would fill train over
fifteen miles long. If transported by
wagon, forty-four bushels on a wagon,
1t would make a row of teams 14a miles
long. If made into bread, reckoning a
bushel to every sixty pounds OF flour,
it would give each man, woman and
child in the United States a two-pound

Artistic Advertising.

Undoubtedly the Ivory Soap people de-
serve credit for the best grade of illustra-
tions now being used for advertising pur-
poses. The series of full-page drawings
which have been appearing on the last page
of the Century represent some of the most
capable book and magazine artists in the
country. The series must have cost no
small figure. As yet the ''way up" artists
np9 n ss wHit that
ere we shall see in the advertising columns
such names as George Wharton Edwards,
E. W. Kemble, etc. Such men as these bring
to their work, besides mere mechanical
skill, trained Imagination and an artistic
conception of things. These qualities, when
used in connection with advertisements,
command scarcely less interest than when
used in the ordinary literary way. Print
