Cutting The Ice Crop.

In cutting or saving leo be particu-
lar to get your cakes OF even size and
square. You can then pack the Ice
away tightly and solidiy without any
air spaces between the cakes or lay
ers. If you get your Ice in the house
IN solid mass and keep It covered
with sawdust or cut straw, properly
tamped in, there win be no trouble
with ice melting and giving out In late
summer, when 1t Is needed most. In
packing away ice leave 1t foot or
fifteen inches from the wall. and with
every layer put sawdust on the out
side to hold Il In place.

Suggestions az to the Best Means Of
Protection.

The utility Of protecting plants.
bulbs, shrubs and trees of all kinds Is
not sufficiently appreciated Even
those of reputed hardness In any Civ.
en- climate VIII well repay the expense
Of partial protection from the severity
OF low temperature.
The degree Of cold that plants viii
resist without being injured cannot be
determined except by actual expert
ment. as their power OF resistance de-
ponds entirely on their environment.
A plant sometimes will be destroyed
by exposure to temperature not
lower than It had previously encouu-
tered without sustaining any apparent
injury. The exact process by which
cold destroys plants is matter upon
which there is yet room for conjecture.
The mechanical action OF frost on veg
etable tissue undoubtedly is a cause Of
injury.
II is well known that mere degrees
Of cold do not indicate the extent Of
the injury that plants suffer during
winter. The moisture of the soil and
the moisture Of the atmosphere are Of
equal importance. Plants that pass
with safety through below zero cold
In December frequently win be de-
stroyed by the dry winds Of March.
although the thermometer may not In
dictate 10 degrees Of frost. The mois-
ture OF the plant Is evaporated, and
the injury will depend upon the
amount thus evaporated.
In climate as changeable as ours
It is by no means an uncommon oc-
currence to have all the seasons rep
resented in a period not exceeding for
ty-eight hours. Consequently during
midwinter plants suffer more here
than in climates much colder. where
the ground is covered with snow the
entire winter. To the layman It is
hard to explain why plants that are
perfectly hardy In Maine when trans
ferred to the White House gardens at
Washington frequently are destroyed
by 10 or Is degrees Of frost because
Of no covering.
The thickness Of protection should
depend upon the size Of the plants.
OF course all this is more particu-
larry for newly planted material. All
trees will be much better with
blanket four inches thick. For trees
two to three inches In diameter make
amat of at least three. feet acrcss the

II the spaces between them are en-
tlrely covered three inches thick
Bulbs OF all kinds narcissus. tulips.
hyacinths and lilies-if covered two

decayed, will be much benefited.
Now, IN the spring don't rake of
every bit OF the protecting material
you have used. Leave on as much as
possible. Nature does not prlm up all
she laid down In November.
