Different Vegetables Should Be Treat

Enough vegetables in the fall go to
waste from the average farm garden
to supply the table during the entire
winter. The task of storing is not diff
icult if one has a knowledge of the
conditions best suited for storage and
is willing to perform small amount
of labor.
A dry. well aired. frost proof room,
cellar or SOdhOuSe will serve the pur-
pose The most favorable temperature
is not over so degrees f. Celery, cab
bage and sweet potatoes should be
stored in the coolest part of the room.
Racks should be adjusted on which to
place the storage boxes or barrels.
This avoids the dangers of overhead
ing. excess moisture and prevents de-

cred before frost, sorted and thorough
ly dried before packing For long
storing preserve those of most perfect
formation and firm texture. Each root
or tuber should be placed few inches
apart in alternate layers with clean.

care should be taken each time to re-

The Pot of Gold.

A Young man Jared forth into
the battle of life. He went a
short way and, suddenly, rain
bow appeared in the heavens.
Surely" thought he, the pot
of gold is at the foot of the rain
bow.
So he moved on. his goal the
rainbow's foot.
Long years he travelled, into
many cities, chimes and experie n
ces. Much wisdom he learned
from his journeyings-he was
wiser, ripper, than if he had stay
ed at home.
But he never found the foot of
the rainbow nor picked up the
pot of gold.
Do you wonder why?
1t was because he was wholly
mistaken as to the pots location.
The pot of gold isn't at the
foot of any rainbow.
1t is wherever you happen to
be.
And it can't be just casually
picked up-you've got to dig it
out. Dig, dig, sweating and ach-
ing; dig till your back is about

WORKMEN'S ACT
GETTING RESULTS
Wisconsin Pleased With Its
New Compensation Law.
IkBORERS ARE BENEFITED.

Persons Hurt Get More Money From
Corporations Than FormerIy-Com-
panies' Expenses Decreased by EIimi-
mating MiddIeman - Six Thousand
Gases In One Year.
Madison, WiS.-The wOrkmen'S COM
pensatiOn act is beginning to show the
beneficial results of the amendment of
1913 in reversing the manner of aid
ing employees affected by it. Dur
ing one month there were 901 indus
trial accidents in Wisconsin. not in
GLIDING railroad accidents. OF this
number I91. or So per cent. were under
compensation. According to reports
made to the industrial commission. the
number of accidents is increasing, but
this only apparently is true. The fact
is that more accidents are reported
than formerly. In the case of shop ac-
cidents, which heretofore have been
quite accurately reported. Il decrease is
shown.
Because of the federal liability act
applying to accidents in interstate COM
merce the larger railroads have not
come under the act.
During one month JJ3 accident cases
were settled under the compensation
law. This was at the rate of 6.636
cases a year. The cost per case on the
average. excluding medical and hos
nit nl lnnp mil x-iVa.
the same cost per case to the 6.63G
cases. it amounts to S417,374 as the
total cost a year for indemnity. To
this must be added the estimated cost
of medical and hospital charges, max
ing SG2G,0Gl as the probable cost of
compensation for IS per cent of the
industrial accidents in Wisconsin for
1913. Indemnity is paid only in cases
where disability extends beyond the
seventh day, while medical attendance
applies to all accidents where such
services are needed.
The cost here given accounts only
for money actually paid TO or on be-
half of the injured workmen and
does not include overhead cost of in
surance. The amount paid to injured
workmen is easily more than three
times as much as they received in
any one year under the old law. But
this does not by any means show that
it cost the employers three times as
much as under the old system. Under
that system the injured wOrkmen did
not receive more than % per cent of
the amount paid by employers. while
under the compensation act at least -
per cent of the amount paid by the
employers goes directly to the men
who are hurt.
In another way the results of the
operation Of the compensation law dur
ing the last year were gratifying. Old
line insurance rates were reduced
twice during the year. In February
rates were reduced about % per cent.
and in October they were reduced
about 10 per cent and at the same time
coverage was increased from $4,000
and $4,000 to an unlimited amount
For unlimited coverage under liability
the rates were about 20 per cent higher
than under limited cOverage.
In addition to the foregoing. 11S cases
of accidents were settled against the
state and municipalities at a cost OF
S39.942.
The cost of administration of the
compensation act by the commission
for the year 1913 did not exceed $1,000
The saving in costs of litigation Il
counties is safely estimated at over
100000.

Paris correspondent of "The Standard
telegraphs high praise Of Myron I.

nation for the Presidency. He says the
French papers are all paying a hign
tribute 10 the statesmanship and emil
nently humane and fine character OF
MIR Herrick, the retiring American Am
bassador.
Mr.. Herrick was officially replaced by
William G. Sharpe in August, but at
Mr.. Sharpe's request he had remained
as practical charge up TO now. All OF
Mr.. Herrick's luggage had been sent
away long ago. but Mr.. Herrick was
never a featherbed diplomat, and, liv-
ING in his dismantled embassy, he said
he would gladly stay in tent If he
could be of further use. Everybody
who has watched his tenure in Paris
agrees with President Wilson's appre-
ciation. that il would be impossible TO
find adequate words TO express the
admirable manner in which his duties
had been accomplished.

Rotterdam, Nov. 30.-Alsatian troops
garrisoning Alost arc giving the mill
tary authorities a great deal of trouble,
They desert wholesale, and their knowl-
edge of French enables them to mingle
with the civilian population. OF SOC
who arrived fortnight ago only 300
remain.
The "Nieuw Rotterdamsche Courant"
learns that eight additional railway
tracks have been or are being laid be-
tween Berlin and Cologne. The enor-
nous capacity CT this system makes it
the most wonderful strategical railway
in the world.
II is said now that the system of maxi
mum prices for foodstuffs established
b.. the German government has proved
a failure. The official tariffs for wheat,
oats, rye, etc, provided for an auto
matte monthly increase Of prices after
December 81. The result is that the
wholesale dealers have had to hold back
supplies awaiting the January rise.
In order to combat this rise it is
found necessary TO allow sellers, espe-
cially retailers, to charge a commission
or expenses or fees in addition to the
statutory price, thus defeating the
whole object Of the law. The demo
cratic press is beginning to demand
either that the sales shall be made
compulsory or that the government
shall simply commander supplies and
