should be remarked here that Il is best
not to feed cow about to become

or two from the house, If possible into

If the character of your land be
sandy or gravelly, you need have no
anxiety about drainage, as the melting
Ice will take care of itself. The main
point is securing good drainage so as
to prevent n draft of air under the ice
chamber. 1t is well to have stone
underpinning well pointed with NOR
tar. current of air will melt many
tons of ice in a week. An excellent
plan in use under many ice houses Is a
convenient for this arrangement.
though by elevating the floor for ice
four to six feet a moderately good stor-
age room can be secured with little
extra cost The one objection TO this
convenience under the chamber is that
1T is. likely to allow drafts of air up
through the ice house unless great care
IS exercised. A tight, or nearly tight,
and sloping floor should be made and
the drainage carried into trough and
away from the building in a pipe. or
course the floor, which also forms the
ceiling of the cold storage room, must
be heavily propped or underpinned to
support ice so the great weight above
will not crush it in. Many find such a
storage room extremely useful in hold
ing for few days small fruits. vegeta-
bles, meats, etc, for market. and for
preserving the family supplies For
foundation walls probably nothing is
cheaper or superior TO concrete we'll
laid below frost The walls IL of wood
must be double or BILE the same as
Tor the ice house proper. Double doors
and windows must also be provided.
Never overlook the rule that the
smaller the amount of ice stored the
greater is its proportionate waste. 49,

BLACKBERRY INSECTS.
Gall Makers and Borers and How to 0s
Rid of Them.

Gall Makers and Borcrs and How to Get
Rid of Them.
In certain of the black berry regions,
according to Insect Life. a number OF
insect depredators have been noticed
and their habits studied. One of the
most destructive of these is the red
necked black berry cane borer (A0yIlus
rgteoHis). The eggs of this borer are
laid nj the base of leaf stalks. or in the
buds before starting When these eggs
hatch, the young borer enters the
stalk and makes corkscrew track be-
tween the wood and the bark, continu-
ing until about the first of August. By
that time some are half an inch long
and reasonably scout while others are
less than quarter of an inch long and
of almost no diameter. Usually the
borer makes spiral path going
around the stalk five or six times.
When this is the case, gals are formed
on the stalks and the location of the
borer may be known by them. Some
times, however. the borer will make
but two or three turns, and while vet
small, will pierce the wood and enter
the pith No gall Is then made and
the position of the borer cannot then
be determined. Raspberries which are
infested with borers form no gals, and
it may be that varieties of black berries
supposed TO be exempt from borers
simply form no gals when attacked.
The only remedy is the knife and fire.
Cut off the infested shoots below the
gaIis in early spring and burn them
Worn out bushes or patches must be
destroyed, as these form breedina
places and all efforts to keep the bear
ing pushes healthy will likely fail.
