When Storing Vegetables.

Tt is not a good plan to store vege-
tables and fruit in the same cellar.
1t may be convenient to have them
near together, but they do not keep
well. Apples should have. a cooler
place than potatoes. Fruits gen
orally keep best where the tempera-
ture, is low and rot badly if it is too
high Sweet potatoes, squashes and
pumpkins will endure a high tenn
perature, but must have it dry. The
requirements of the different vege-
tables or fruits must be considered.
There should be at least two rooms
in the cellar and it is better still if
there are three, as it can not be eX-
pected that any one room can be
really good for more than one kind
of storage, either warm or cold.
The amount of moisture needed is
another consideration. Squashes
and sweet potatoes must have dry
place, but turnips, beets and pota-
toes should have some moisture to
keep them from shriveling. So it
will be seen that it is not an easy
matter to arrange for the good of
them afl-Farmer's Voice.

a Story of GOOd Roads.

The story of the redemption of
the southeastern part Of Indiana,
known assthe Pocket, told in the ST.
Louis Post Despatch, is mainly the
story of good roads.
Ten years ago that portion Of the
State was in the mud A good
roads agitation set in, and under
present conditions southwestern In
diana is as one big city, thoroughly
equipped with mail system and
paved highways,
Ten years ago there was one mile
of improved highway in Gibson
County and the farmers wanted no
more. To-day there are, 102 miles,
with more building. Ten years ago
the telephone was unknown; to-day
there are. 3,400 telephones in use,
operated from Is exchanges. There
were only four banks; now there are
10 and a trust company.

ROTATION OF FIELD CROPS.
Means More Money Better Crops
and Less Work Than Formerly.

Means More Money Better Crops
and Less Work Than Formerly.
For many reasons we'll known,
our soils will not. produce paying
crops if planted to the same thing
year after year. Since the reasons.
for crop failures have become
known and the discovery that one
crop may ,fertilize the land for an
other, rotation has taken the place
Of following and all the land is
farmed every year.
The simplest wheat rotation. is to
grow potatoes one or two years and
wheat one year instead Of growing
so many potatoes grow peas one
year and wheat the next,
Planting peas and wheat alter
nate years has proven very sue
.cessful rotation in the San Luis val
ley. One of the best wheat rotations
for general conditions would be to
seed the land to alfalfa, leaving it
in the crop from three to five years.
Then pillow the alfalfa and plant to
wheat two years, seeding alfalfa
again with the second crop of grain.
Wheat is considered a better nurse
crop for alfalfa than any other
grain, because it produces less stem
or bottom leaves to shade the young
alfalfa. Many of our people have
used oats as nurse crop for alfalfa
but the custom is going out.
