A ROOT CELLAR.
Row 60 Mako n Ratproof ons In tho Barn
With Little Trouble. q

u
With Little Trouble. u
Every farmer who grows beets for
stock should prepare a place 20, store
them either in or near to the barn. It
is not much trouble or expense, as there
is but little danger of their freezing if a
largo bulk is stored together. An Ohio
Farmer correspondent writes that cell
lar can be made in the barn by taking
the hoor out of the hay bay and build
ing double walls with 10 inch studding
boarded on both sides and the space
filled with sawdust and straw, or hay.
can be kept on the floor above until the
cold weather is over.
Such cellar-or bin, whichever you
may call tiff made for permanency, as
it should be, ought to be ratproof, and
this is easily done at little expense. The
sides can be covered inside with tin or
cheap sheet iron. He lined two sides of
his barn cellar. which is 12 by IA feet,
with some old tin roofing, which cost
nothing except 25 cents to have it run
through the rollers ut a tinshop to take
the kinks out of it. This correspondent
says:
"The floor can be cemented at small
cost, for the common, cheap grades of
cement will answer here, where there is
no danger of frost and no stock to tramp
it. Less than two barrels will floor a
cellar large enough to store 1000 bush
els if the ceiling is seven feet high. To
make q ratproof floor there should be
three inches of concrete made of finely
broken stone or screened gravel and
cement mixed at the rate of one of ce-
ment to about six parts of the stone and
gravel and pounded down solid. 1t
should be only slightly wet-water
thrown over the coarse material and al
lowed to drain off and the cement then
mixed through it. The last coat should
be mixed with sharp, rather coarse,
sand, one of cement to two of sand. and
spread half an inch thick. Another tenn
porary plant for keeping beets for win
ter feeding, which is much better than
pitting them, is to build bin or cheap
room Of rough lumber convenient to the
barn and store the beets, and at the an
prOach of cold weather build q stack of
corn fodder or straw over it to protect
them.
Double walls should be made filled
with leaves or sawdust, and there will
be no trouble to keep them from freez-
ing. Whether the beets are stored in a
cellar or outside building, there should be
windows and doors, so that perfect ven
tilation can be had for few weeks after
they are stored. We formerly cut our
beets to feed them, but now we feed
them whole to all stock, and much pre-
fer it to cutting, as we find that all our
stock eat them without waste, and while
COW will sometimes choke on a three
cornered piece of beet she will never do
SO on piece which she bites out of the
beet"

toni
When the torrid sun of summer burns
all nature, then women begin to long for
tho cool sea breezes, and whether they
can or cannot go sailing on some boat or
other they put on a yachting suit any
how, and doubtless they feel cool, know
ing they look so. Really yachting suits
depend moro upon the kind of hat one
wears than on the clothes themselves
Given serge dress trimmed with
wavy black braid, q jacket and plated
front to full waist, and a cap, one
knows that it is a regulation yachting
suit. Take that same dress and wear
glazed or straw sailor hat and you know
quite as well that the wearer is going tc
the seashore,. and put flower hat on
the dainty head, and it is natty negligee
walking costume. Caps are worn by
the seaside occasionally, and sailor hats
on pleasure yachts as we'll as on MANY
other occasions, many Of them being
seen on the street for runabout uses, but
n cap has no right in the streets of q CITY
unless upon bicycle rider, when it is
quite in place.
There has never yet been discovered

ments Of sailor hats and yachting caps,
with the balance very much in favor of
serge this season, and it is made in extra
heavy weights for extra warmth while
on the water.
The changeable climate makes it neces.
sary to have warm clothing in summer.
For such needs there is large variety of
short wraps and jackets, almost as many
styles as there are persons, but the ia
vorites are the short military wrap and
the REFER jacket, satin lined.
Among the newest fancies in wraps
intended for such needs there are short
round capes made of the new shadow
bengalines These bengalines come in
4S inch width and change by perfect
stages from the lightest shade of one
color to the darkest shade of another
and then back again, but the transition
is SO gradual that it generally takes the
whole width to bring out the whole pat
tern. There was one pattern that shad-
ed off from old rose to olive green, the
weaving and blending Of all the inter-
mediate shades being most cunningly
done. Another one changed from the
palest straw to the darkest brown
through all the intermediate shades of
lemon, orange, mandarin and red.

Tryon Died as Burgoyne Diod.

There was remarkable similarity be-
tween the fate of Admiral Tryon, who
persisted when the Victoria went down,
and that of Captain Hugh Burgoyne, the
commander of the Captain when she was
lost Private dispatches received in Eng
land say that the admiral commanded
his men to save themselves, but refused
to save his own life. When the Captain
capsized and after struggling to right
herself finally turned over completely,
floating with her keel uppermost, Cap
tain Burgoyne, Mr.. May, the gunner,
and a seaman named Heard reached the
plnnace. The ship almost Immediately
disappeared, but her second launch, with
10 men ON board, came alongside the
pinnace.
a sudden lurch separated the two
boats before Captain Burgoyne and
Heard had time to board the launch.
The sailor took his commander by tho
hand and proposed to jump. 'Save
your own life, my man." Captain Bur
goyne replied. Tho boats separated
moro and more, and Heard exclaimed,
"Will you come or not, sir?" Burgoyne
answered.: "Jump and save yourself.
shall not forget you some day." The
sailor leaped and finally reached the
launch, but the captain was not again
seen.
He was descendant of Sir John Bur
goyne Of the Revolution and the only
son of the then constable Of the tower,
another Sir John. Admiral Tryon was
regarded as England's chief defender.
and Burgoyne was skillful and brave
officer. 1t is a singular fact that the
two officers served together as ieuten-
ants in the trenches before Sebastopol,
being at the time attached to the land
service.-Buffalo Courier.

along the edges. Point bruges is like
the duchess lace in all but price. Point
de gene and bourbon are shown in new
designs, particularly in the insertions
that are now to be so largely used. The
black laces are all popular as trimming
now and will probably be employed as
founcings on many elegant gowns.
Chantilly never goes out, but is now in
very high favor and is shown in MANY
novel and lovely designs, many of the
patterns being outlined with crystal or
jet beads, with here and there a spangle.
Two new home toilets just finished
show the mode of applying lace. One is
gown of large lowered silk with vel
vet side bands, edged by fiat lace and
with bertha of the same, with velvet
bands over V front of lace. The other
is pale pink crepon with outline Of
lace beaded and spangled. Around the
bottom is velvet band to match the
moss green velvet jacket with gigot
sleeves. The pattern of lace is cut out
and appliqued with beads all around the
edges. 1t is laid fat upon the garment.
The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1893-09-05

There is also another fabric called
velours that is woven in very coarse
stripes of different colors, the surface
being ribbed and the thread upon tho
raised part being of o different color
from that beneath, so that it has very
sumptuous effect as the folds throw
light and shade upon it. In some cases
the underlying color is shaded off like
the bengaline, while the upper one re-
mains the same. There are some where
the surface is brown, the under cord
lemon color or green. There are soft
dark greens everything rose pink, or ma
genta or eminence purple over bright
green or yellow
To mention the colors of the season by
name is almost to give the impression OF
vulgarity but the tints and shades all
have somewhere in. them or in their com
bination Il saving grace.
These heavy. bengalines, poplins and
velours are used for making the little
wraps mentioned, and so is plain cloth
with straight cut or pinl1ed out edges.
To go with the shaded bengalines and
the two toned velours there is special
ribbon made with two or three heavy
cords along one edge. The other edge is
to be gathered. This kind of ribbon will
also be used to trim skirts for fall.
Some of the new shepherds plaids
have pale, indistinct fgurings or swivel
weave thrown in between the narrow
lines that form the large plaid that over
lies the small check. Some of them
have only small check. Tailor dresses
are being made up with fiat insertions of
lace as trimming, which seems an odd
combination. The lace, however, is al
ways of the heavier kinds.
The laces now shown as novelties in
clude mignonne and pointe de fandes.
These are both light cotton laces and
are known by the square pin dots and
scalloped edge. Torchon, medici and
valenciennes are all shown in new pat
terms of exceeding delicacy and very mar
row widths.
