Will Consider It FIRST Monday ir
December.

Last Monday Maj. L. L. Emry,
Weldon, and Others presented to the
county commissioners in Halifax petit
tlon from the Daughters of the Con-
fsderacy, of the Junius Daniel Camp,
asking the commissioners of Halifax
county to make liberal appropriation
for the county towards building in
Weldon monument to the Confeder-
kate soldiers of Halifax county.
Maj. Emry asked the commissioners
to make an appropriation of $500.
The commissioners said they would
gladly make the appropriation if they
had the money, but they said that the
county is in debt, and they preferred
to wait until the first Monday in De-
cember to act upon it.
Solicitor w. E. Daniel made some
remarks before the commissioners, re-
ferring pleasantly to the proud record
OF the Confederate soldiers of Halifax
county, and thought that If the county
is in condition to do so it would be
proper to make the appropriation.
Mr.. Albion Dunn being called res
ponded and said that he knew if bis
father, the late w. A. Dunn, were liv-
ing he would favor such appropriation
by the county commissioners.
Mr.. Robert Ransom said that as a
tax payer in HALIFAX county he would
feel like the commissioners were hon
oring themselves to make the appro-
priation.
Maj. Emry urged the appropriation
now.
Col. w. H. S. Burgwyn, OF Weldon,
paid high tribute to the Confederate
soldiers of the county, and said that If
the commissioners would pass the or.
der now for the appropriation a year
hence, it would be satisfactory to those
who were asking it.
After hearing the matter the COM
missloners decided to wait until the
first Monday in December before TAX
ing any action on the petition.

THE VEGETABLE CELLAR.
A Suggestion TO Farmers Who Have
Furnaces-How One Man
Managed.


In the winter is the time the farmer
takes to lay his plans for the future
We think that nothing will be bet
ter worth his attention this winter
than the question of a storage cellar
tor potatoes, cabbages, squashes and
other products OF the field There was
a time when the cellar under the farm
house was cool enough in winter to
keep most Of the vegetables that It
was desired TO keep for some months.
But little by little the big furnace has
invaded the home of the farmer, and,
the cellar is no longer the good storage
place IL was. says the Farmers Re-
view. The night temperature now runs
to 90 degrees and the day temperature
TO 40 degrees and higher.
All farm vegetables begin TO show
deterioration in a few weeks from be-
ing stored The cabbages and beets
wilt and the potatoes shriyel and send
out sprouts, which have to be broken
of again and again to prevent the
nourishment and moisture in the POI
tato being drawn into the sprout. II
is evident that the man with fur
mace Will have TO arrange his cellar in
some other way than by leaving it one
open space
Recently a professor in one Of our
agricultural colleges was describing to
he writer a most admirable cold stor-
lge room in his cellar. He has a fur
lace. and, rs is common, the furnace
must have a supply Of cold air He
las had a brick partition built across
me end Of his cellar, and the cold air
or the furnace is drawn through this
Dom. II has one aperture opening to
he outside, while on the inside the air
oes into the cold air pipe of the fur
ace.
There is a window in the cold stor-
&c room, and OF course a door adj
hts from that into the other part Of
he cellar On cool days. when the
'mperature is not so low as 10 freeze
he vegetables the professor opens the
indow wide and fills the vegetable
'llar with cold air. and then closes It
lough to admit Of only the amount OF
raft necessary TO keep the furnace
ping
The results are found TO be admira-
e. and all vegetables stored there. as
ell as the apples, are kept in a perfect ,
ate Of preservation till used.

1892 has proved satisfactory in nv
case in keeping rabbits from hurtine
apple trees: "A piece OF closely woven
wire netting about 12x1s inches hen,
around the tree and fastened by a wire
makes a sure protection ana costs
about three cents II will also stop
the eating of the bark by mice and
prevent the beetle OF the round-headed
borer from laying eggs, and will last
Tor several years. A bunch OF soft
material stuck in the top will keen II
In proper position and allow no chafinr
OF the tree" In my experience the
wire lasted until the trees were so
large that the rabbits did not trouble
them.
