teachings of a good exhibit will see a

some variety that has been highly rec.
commended TO him. and the answer viii

he will be able TO make n COMPARE

value TO him. The comparison will
be made under conditions that GER

PRACTICAL ROOT CELLAR.

md should be nailed to the studding
before they are raised into position.
The joists (B, O. @ should be of two
by four. and the supports for the root
should be of the same material. The
space above the joists may be filled
with straw or leaves. or hay. to pre-
vent freezing in the cellar. The plates,
which are secured at the top of the
studding, may be placed somewhat
above the level Of the surface of the
ground. Part Of the earth which is
removed in excavating should be
banked up against the walls under
the roof, SO that the slope of the
ground will be away from the cellar.
Doors may be placed at intervals in
the root SO that roots can be SHOW
eled from a wagon directly into the
cellar. At one end Of the pit there
should be solid double doors, so that
entrance may be had TO the cellar in
cold weather without permitting the
cold to enter. The upright center
piece CA. ~ should not be more than
five to six feet high, and the length
OF the cellar may be as great as de-
sired. The width may be from eight
To ten feet. If this can be construct
ed on a slight slope of land 1t will
be all the better.-Country Gentle.
