Potatoes in cellars are subject to
many changes of temperature and freez-
ing cold is perhaps the one that is most
easily guarded against. If not looked
alter closely the temperature will go too
high, and not only will the eyes start,
but heating and rotting may begin.
This is the most common cause of mala-
rial disease IN country homes in winter.
Keep the potatoes assorted, and If the
air seems close and moist, ventilate freely
and sprinkle the cellar floor with lime to
absorb the superfuous moisture.
-On Saturday last an engine of the
branch line of the Great Northern
stopped at the water tank, and was en-
gagged for some time in thawirg out the
spout. When the water commenced to
flow it ran upon the track under the
wheels OF the engine and iroze them solid
ly to the track. All efforts to free the
engine by cutting away the ice were UNI
awaiting, as the water could not be shut
off. The passenger train from the east
came in at the height OF the trouble. and
dragged the ice-bound machine out.
The lectures OF Prof. E. B. Swift on
Saturday and Monday evenings next
will be full of information and interest to
old and young alike. The microscope is
an instrument to attract attention al
ways, revealing as it does, wondrous
forms of beauty and interest with which
we are all in close contact without even
dreaming of their existence. Prof Swift
has particularly fine one. and his selec-
ton of objects will be such as to give
popular satisfaction. To have the mi
nutest oblects-too minute for detection
by the naked eye, brought into such
prominence that every feature miy be
readily Dissolved is wonderful. The eye
OF fly magniied to diameter of ten
feet will certainly be worth seeing, and
is but one of the hundred similar speci-
mems. Popular prices for admission-one
admission rs CTS, both evenings 40 cts.
