A GOOD CELLAR.
Conditions Which Must BE Secured 70
Have It Frost and Heat Proof.

Those who contemplate building, OF
those who have poor cellars, will do
we'll to consider carefully the essen.
tials Of q good cellar. A good cellar
must be cool in summer, and proof
against freezing In winter. Therefore.
depth Is an important point-a deep
cellar meeting both these require.
ments. As we 60 deeper beneath the
surface there Is a tendency towards
equalization OF temperature. In the
northern portions of the United States
frost seldom penctrates more than
four or five feet; while In summer the
subsoil at three feet deep remains at
about 60 degrees temperature during
midsummer heat.
A cellar under a house Is not only
a necessity In most cases, but Is, In
the colder portions Of the country, a
great help in keeping the house warm
In cold weather. A house with a Gel.
lar beneath will require less coal for
maintaining living temperature than a
house without one. Is a cellar with a
cement floor warmer in summer than
one with the natural earth? Some
say SO. As far as cleanliness and rat.
proof conditions are concerned, &C.
ment makes the ideal floor for q eel.
lar. Since the warmth Of q cellar in
winter and its GOODNESS In summer
are largely dependent upon the tenn.
perature of the soil beneath the cellar,
it follows that the floor should consist
OF a material that Is a good conductor.
Rock, and with this we may class
cement, is a better conductor than
sand or clay, and hence makes a bet
ter floor. The bottom of a cellar
should be dry, and dry sand or clay
Is a poor conductor, and should be
covered with cement; thus the soil
beneath will remain moist, while the
cement surface will be dry, thus full.
filling both temperature and sanitary
requirements. Owing to
CT the ground surface, 1t sometimes
happens that a considerable portion
OF the cellar wall must be exposed on
the outside. Here the wall should
be built double, or be protected by an
earth embankment. | knew Of a eel
lar Of this kind which would freeze
every winter. A retaining wall of
rough stone was laid up four OF five
feet from the cellar wall and the in.
%tervening space filled with earth. So
much Of a help did this prove to be
that the same cellar did not freeze in
the coolest winter known for years.
The house stills should be laid in NOR.
tar to make the cellar as tight as pos.
sibie.
Small windows answer for ventilat-
ing purpose for the greater portion of
the year. In the coolest weather very
little II any ventilation Is needed, the
temperature being so low that no fer.
mentation Is taking place to any ex'
tent. In the heat of summer windows
should be opened only at night. At
that season Q ventilating tiue Is use.

French State MonopoNes.

State monopolies are more than
ever in favor in France as a means
OF raising revenue to the prejudice Of
private enterprise. A committee of
the chamber of deputies has been ap-
pointed, with a foreign minister OF
finance as chairman. to collect infOr'
nation on the possible working OF
monopolies on sugar and petroleum
refining. the rectification of alcohol,
and insurance.

Alum Baking Powder Is Wholesome.

~IuIU odNlU9 VOWueC Is "FOicSOmSs
DR.. Herman Reinbold, the expert
German chemist. in a recent official
report concerning Baking Powders,
declares that a pure alum baking pow
der IS better and less injurious than
the so-called cream of tartar powders.
He says that If the quantity of alum
contained in a sufficient quantity of
baking powder for a batch of bread or
cakes for an ordinary family, be con.
centrated to M mouthful of food.
and taken into the stomach of any
one person, no matter how delicate.
it could do no harm. On the contrary,
alum is wholesome in proper quaint.
ties. This is undoubtedly the reason
the State of Missouri quickly repealed
a law that prohibited the manufacture
Of the most wholesome of all baking
powders. So much for Alum Baking
Powders.
