RODENT PROOF CoRNCRIBS.
Old Fashioned Sort Give Way to Steel
Structures.

Old Fashioned Sort Give Way to Steel
Structures.
Every farmer knows that corn stored
in the ordinary crib is exposed to more
or less damage from rats. mice. birds
and chickens. and he makes allowance
for this loss The extent Of the dam
age from these sources depends upon
the kind of crib used and the length OF
time the corn is in storage. In the old
fashioned rail crib. which is now vir-
tually out Of date In the older states,
the loss was very great.
During the last few years the steel
crib has come into use as a rodent
proof structure. There are several
makes and styles OF these cribs upon
the market. but the principle involved
in each is the same A description Of
two steel cribs in use on the Ohio State
university farm may be Of interest to
farmers who are unfamiliar with this
method of storing corn They are
made Of perforated galvanized steel,
circular in form, and stand ON concrete
foundations. The perfOrations admit
air. and further ventilation is provided
by a perforated steel tube extending up
through the center Of the crib and out
the top The roof is Of steel. These
cribs have a capacity of 500 bushels
each They cost $3.50 apiece. not in
Guiding the foundation and the cost Of
erecting.
In laying the foundation for the steel
crib the excavation is made and foot
or so OF cinders is put down. On top
OF this several inches Of cement are
laid. then a layer Of steel sheets and
finally another coat of cement The
steel sheets prevent the moisture from
rising from the soil. The floor is rails
ed slightly in the center SO that If wa
ter should gain entrance it would i'm
medlately run out Of the crib
These cribs have been in use over
three years and have proved entirely
satisfactory. They are absolutely rat
mouse. bird and chicken proof and.
with the aid Of a good paddock. are
thief proof Weights were kept of
corn stored In them for over a year.
and the only loss was due to evapOra-
ton of moisture. The steel crib then
appears to be the safest place for the

STORING WINTER APPLES.
Essentials to Be Borne In Mind In
Storing Apples and other Fruit.

Essentials to Be Borne In Mind In
Storing Apples and Other Fruit.
In storing fruit for winter. says
Better Farming. the three essentials to
be horne in mind are good ventilation.
a proper temperature and moderately
dry atmosphere Unless they can all
be met it is better to dispose Of your
fruit at prevailing market price rather
than take the risk of loss by rOtting.
The cellar In which the fruit is kept
must be well drained. with double
walls above ground. Double walls are
better noncOnductors than single walls.
An outer entrance to the cellar is in
dispensable, as are also small double
glass windows placed at least on two
sides of the cellar. preferably on north
and south sides. On warm days they
can be used to good advantage in
regulating the temperature. No stor-
age cellar should contain a furnace.
even when there is a partition wall be
tween it and the fruit. as undue
warmth cannot be prevented. The
right temperature Is a few degrees
above the freezing point, about SO de
grees F. The temperature may vary
considerably. however. without serious
damage. but in very cold weather 1t is
well to keep a thermometer close by
and apply artificial heat If necessary.
Barrels and crates or hanging bins are
the best utensils for storing Hanging
bins are very convenient. as the fruit
gets the full advantage Of free circu-
lation Of air from beneath and through
side Stats. besides It can be easily
sorted from them. Whatever utensil is
used fruit should be raised up enough
