-------------'t'-7- OLD-TlME HETEROGENEOUS.
Spring Houses of the ozarks and Their
 Many Uses.

From the St. Louis Globe-Democrat.
 You do not need to go far out of St.. Louis to find the old-time spring house." the western railroads.
 "The prime requisite of a farm in the early days was water and nobody would buy a section of land anywhere in the Ozark region unless it was provided with a spring. The house was usually located as near the spring as convenience sug- gested, and then after the home was se- cured the next step was to build a spring house. The walls were made from two to four feet thick of any rough stone that happened to be handy. The door was of heavy oak boards and fastened with a stout paddock. Inside the house three sides were usually fitted out with shelves to hold the great crooks of milk, jars of cream and butter, and usually the spring bowl was excavated so as to form a pool having a uniform depth of three to six inches. In this the choicest dairy products were placed in order that they might be coolest, while overhead stout nails or hooks were fastened to the raft CTS to support huge roasts, legs of nut ton and veal, which, at the temperature of 45 degrees or whereabouts, would keep fresh many days.
 Rats and mice were almost unknown
  about the spring house, but small snakes and half-grown frogs were numerous, and when the country maid noticed an unusual commotion In the jar of milk she was handling she was not at all surprised or frightened either when water snake slipped out of the jar and disappeared. Nor was the family alarmed when the head of frog appeared in the milk pitcher at breakfast. The pitcher was promptly emptied into the pigs trough and the frog, if not devoured by the pigs made a bee line for the spring branch Nobody was blamed, for every one knew the covers of the jars did not fit and that frogs and snakes were to be expected in q spring house.
 These old-fashioned refrigerators are everywhere to be seen in the valleys of the Ozarks and fulfill the same purpose that they did when Missouri was terri tory.''
