Coffee from Sofa Beans.

A new industry has sprung up
round Meherrin, Va, says the Times
Dispatch, in the past two years
among the German settlers in the
shape of cultivating SOFA beans, to
be used in the place of coffee. Up to
few years ago this bean was I'M
known in that section, and since it
has been substituted for coffee its cul-
tivation has largely increased. 1t is
an easy crop to grow, and grows sew
eral times as tall SIS the common pea.
1t is claimed by those who have tried
raising them that they are unsur-
passed for feed. The German says he
had much rather have them to make
his coffee than the old Rio grain.
And as a result the coffee trade
among this class has somewhat de-
creased.

RELIABLE OUTDOOR CELLAR.

top of end wall to the under side of
the arch.
To build the arch a skeleton of five
one section being shown in cut. The
posts, the height of stone wall, are
set under without fastening. The
skeleton is then covered with lath or
narrow boards, all of the same width.
On this the brick are laid endwise,
making the crown about eight inches
thick. This is covered with thick
coat of cement, making it impervi-
Gus to water. The ventilator is made
by placing four-inch tile in the
center of the crown. The door and
cellarway are placed in center of one
end, the same as any cellar entrance.
The cost of this cave is as follows:
Three days work tearing down old
wall and moving it 60 rods, using
team one and one-half days; $500
arch bricks for ends and crown at so
cents here, $13; mason, Al hours, at
rs cents per hour, $1O.25; carpenter
making crown skeleton, 81; lime,
$5.04; sand, four loads. 81; cement
for crown and floor. $3.50; lumber
for doors, $1.50; nails, hinges, etc,
81; ten rods tile for drainage $3.50;
putting them in, $780, Making a
cash expense of $3.50, not count
ing my time throwing out the
dirt, covering it over after be-
ing built, hauling materials of
all kinds, tending mason, cement

which, if it had TO be hired done,
would have amounted to Sis or $40
more.

When the thermometer drops ten
of more degrees below zero, it is
quite "a relief to the mind to know
that ones vegetables put away for
future use are safe from the elements
without. On many farms it is i'm
possible to place cellar under the
house, and as result the owners go
on from year to year without safe
place to store potatoes, etc. After
nearly 25 years experience with two
cellars and three caves, l would not

saw Lincoln in the white house-the

night-who closed the door on him as
he went down the steps.
