BUILDING CELLARS.
One of the First Things to BE Sought IL
Perfect Drainage.

During the sultry summer months
farmers who do not enjoy the luxury of
an icehouse are in position to appre-
ciate good cool cellar. And even
where ice is to be obtained the cellar
will only make it possible to obtain the
greater benefit from ice. But perhaps
not one in every dozen cellars made is
cool in summer and warm in winter,
unless it possesses some fault such as
excessive moisture or lack of ventila-
ton. In either case it is likely to be OF
little use and perhaps serious menace
to the healthfulness of the family.
One of the first things to be sought in
the location is thorough drainage. No
cellar is fit for use in which water ac-
cumulates or stands until everything
becomes injured to more or less ex-
tent. Neither is house fit fo- habita-
tion which stands over cellar of this
description. To be effective, the drain
should be few inches lower than the
cellar floor, and if it extends entirely
around the outer edge it is all the bet
| ter.
Next to drainage, the location in re.
gard to the building must be considered
unless it is to be beneath the entire
| building. The worst possible place is
beneath the southwest corner of the
building, while the best location is in
the center, with the northeast corner
as second choice. The walls, floor and
counters should be cemented to insure
cleanliness. freedom from insects and
solid surfaces. Our first cellar has Il
brick floor, but no one could induce me
to put in a brick floor again. 1t is more
difficult to sweep or scrub, and when
cleaned does not present a respectable
appearance. And the tendency to ex.
cessive moisture is increased.
The cellar beneath the dwelling is
12x2S inside measurement, extends from
north to south beneath the center Of
the building. Ventilation is provided
by means of two windows, one in each
end; that in the south being shaded.
The windows are provided with glass
and screen sash, either Of which Is
readily opened. A counter eighteen
inches high and three feet wide occu.
pies one side and the two ends. This
saved excavation and stone foundation,
and is all the more convenient 1t is
walled with brick and nicely cemented.
1t is dry, cool and clean. The tempera.
ture in winter ranges from IS to 40, and
in midsummer from 80 to IS. Fruit and
vegetables kept to perfection, the early
winter varieties of apples keeping
till April and May. Last spring the
tulpehockens kept nicely until May 90

Whoever expects to go through the

that unwillingness were oltogether
praiseworthy. Often, too. do we hear
parents who have lost child virtually
express their submission to the Divine
will because the dispensation frees them
from the responsibilities and anxieties
of rearing a child. Cheerful acquies-
cence at such time is Christian duty,
and there is certain joy in knowing
that the child is freed from the dangers.

Since the time God said to Cain
"Where is thy brotner?" and he an

the weight of personal responsibility
has rested ON each one of us, in great
er or less degree according TO the die
tates of our conscience. The very name
is suggestive of self-sacrifice and loving
endeavor. IL we begin the day with
the object before our hearts of helping
the burdened one, cheering the sad,
speaking word of counsel to the err
ring and tried, at the close of that day,
when the shades of evening gather
round us, we can raise our hands and
hearts in thanksgiving to the loving
Father who has given us the opportu-
nifty to serve others for His sake When
we arise in the morning we are
in a great measure responsible for
the brightness or gloom of our home
atmosphere. A pleasant smile or
cheerful good morning will do as much
toward dispelling the overhapging
clouds of discord as frowning face or
sullen manner will help to increase the
gloom We are responsible to bear one
| anothers burdens; to show forth love
to those whose manner towards us
does not call forth the slightest re-
gard, but rather the reverse.
We are responsible to tell out the
| gospel of Gods love and grace to those
with whom we come in contact from
day to day; to pray for the salv alton
of their souls; to give CHEEKY smile
and pleasant word to each acquaint-
ance we meet, for who can tell the
good such greeting may do
to one who is bowed beneath a
load of sorrow or care. 1t will
be like the sudden lifting of the clouds
on dull day, and the shining forth of
the sun with its cloud-dispelling beams,
sending gladness to every heart. 1t is
personal responsibility because it is in
dividual; it is not your neighbor who
is responsible for the happiness of your
home; it is not your clergyman who
will be accountable for your salvation

responsibility is to live in this world in

GRAPES AND PEARS.
How to Keep Them Sound Until Long
After the Holidays.

After the Holidays.
BY exercising care in selecting and
handling the fruit, both grapes and
pears can be kept for a long time, at
least until after the holidays. The most
important item is to use only sound
specimens. There is no advantage
gained in using bruised or partially de-
cayed fruit, for it will cause the sound
to decay more quickly. Select the
largest punches of grapes and lay them
out separately for day or so, to par
TALLY cure, cutting away any berries
that are in the least damaged. Use
sawdust for packing, putting a layer
first, then layer of grapes, followed
by another of sawdust and so on until
the box is full. Set the boxes where
they will keep very cool but not freeze.
A great deal depends upon even tenn
| perature.
Pears will keep in much warmer
place, but like the grapes the temper
ature must be uniform. Take perfectly
sound pears, not too ripe, for even
quite green ones will ripen nicely in
this way. Spread them out one layer
deep in shallow boxes or drawers,
Wrapping each separately in paper will
help to preserve them. Keep dark, but
above all keep the temperature even.
The constant changing from warm to
cold and vice versa is the main cause Of
decaying. Orange Judd Farmer.
