times the custom to tack lightly to

concrete. When the rough door
frame is removed this strip remains
in the side Of the door and can be
used for fastening the door hinges.

paddle, thrusting the latter between
the forms and the concrete in order
that the stone or gravel may be
forced away from the forms, which
leave a smoother surface than would
otherwise result. This not only al
lows the rich mortar to flow against
the forms, but prevents the forma-
ton of air pockets and projecting

Laboratory experiments conducted
by the investigators Indicate that
milk may be pasteurlzed bottled hot,
capped with ordinary cardboard caps,
and cooled by a blast of cold air
economically and with very satisfac-
tory bacterial reductions. The air
cooling process requires a somewhat
longer time than cooling by water
but in the Laboratory II was found
that thoroughly .pasteurized milk

slowly without increasing the bac-
terial content. Whether or not the
experience OF the laboratory will be
found true in commercial practice re-

Investigators in the United States
Department of Agriculture have found
that the process of bottllng pasteur-
tied milk while still hot has several
advantages which make II seem prob
able that this method would prove
both economical and etficacious when
practiced on a commercial scale. In
an article printed by permission of
the secretary of agriculture in the
Journal of Infectious Diseases the
authors declare that this method re-
suits in bacterial reductions as great
as, or even greater than, by pasteur-
ization In bottles.
The principal advantage of the lat
ter method for the ordinary systems
IN commercial use is the impossible
sty of the milk becoming contaminat-
cd again while being bottled. There
is also some saving of milk, because
there is no loss from evaporat ton.
On the other hand, when milk is pas
teurized In bottles II is customary to
cool the bottles by placing them in
cold water. This necessitates the use

rrote-timE Fruit Trees.

How can I protect my fruit trees
from rabbits3 e. ]. II.
West Grange
One exceedingly good way To pro
teet fruit trees from rabbits and
mice Is to eitcircle the trunks with u
metal shieldTone made OF tin. sheet
iron or evet a small mesh wire
screening Of wood veneer The
meshes should be no larger than four
to the SQUARE inch. and II should OK
tend above hhe snow line at least q
foot, so that the rabbits cannot stand
on their hing legs and gnaw the bark.
Some OF the mice burrow under the
snow on the ground. This can be
guarded against by nounding the soil
about the trees trunk as high Us the
usual snow Zine. Coal ashes also can
be used forl this purpose and spread
about over the ground the following
spring. In the case of rabbits the
trunks can be protected by smearing
them with s9n1e greasy or ill-smelling
substance, such as blood or nshoil.
Rubbing liver over the trunk is an
old and faEoritc remedy. Another
tried remedy is made as follows:
Stake fresh Fine in soft water or SOAP
suds to the thickness of whitewash.
To one peck of lime add when hot,
two quarts, of gas tar and four
pounds of soda.

Good shelter counts the same as
food, whether applied to livestock or
man. Now is the time to look after
the leaks in the roofs of the dwelling
house. the stables and other outbuild-
ings about the place. There may be
several boards off the side of the
COW shed, the mule barn or the hog
house. 1t is very essential that your
hogs be kept warm, dry and in clean
quarters. There is more trouble with
the hogs of this country from being
exposed to damp and cold winter
quarters than any other one thing.
Rheumatism in the hog Is something
very common and which may be pre-
vented with very little care. Just
keep him dry and reasonably warm;
no then will not be troubled with
rheumatism.
All openings where the wind and
snow can get in should be closed by
lacking strips of chinking with some
material at hand. However, suffi-
Gent ventilation should be provided.

the animals. Especially the poultry

UNCLE SAM TELLS HOW TO
VEFLOWERS FROM JACK FROST

When Jack Frost mas visited the
garden and checked or blighted the
vegetation the flower lover will con-
slider what shall be done for the va
rious plants and shrubs. Different
plants demand different treatment.
Such flowers as peonies and holly
hooks will come up again the follow
ing year IL they are properly pro-
tected during the winter, while others,
like cannas and dahlias which are
more accustomed to warmer climes,
must have their roots or bulbs dug
up and stored in a cellar. The United
States Department of Agricultural
specialists have given the following
suggestions regarding some of them.
Hardy Perennials - Hardy perer-
malls that are expected to live through
the winter should be covered with a
good coating of manure or other hit
ter to a depth of three or four inches.
This in more southern localities will
hold the frost in the ground during
the winter and keep the plant from
alternately freezing and thawing; In
more northern regions the manure will
keep the plant from freezing to so
great "a depth that its water supply
would be cut OFF and the plant would
perish. This treatment Is good for
bines. iris. paltycodoness and peren-
NAL peoples.
Cannas, Dahlias, Etc.--As soon as
the tops of cannas. dahlias, gladiolas.
caladiums and similar plants are kill
ed by the frost. the roots or bulbs
should be dug and stored in a cellar.
where the temperature will remain
about fifty-five degrees and should
never go below fifty or above sixty
degrees. No more earth should be
shaken from the clumps of cannas
and dahlias than is necessary to re-
move them from the ground. The
plants may be placed on racks or in
slat boxes so the air may circulate
| freely through them. No frost must
reach the roots. nor must they be-
come too warm or dry.
With Dubious plants, such as Gala
diums, gladiolas, tube-roses. 1t is de-
sirable to remove all the soil and dry
them in the open air a day or two be-
| fore storing.
The killed tops of all vegetation
may we'll be removed from ones
| flower beds after Jack Frost has
visited them This is merely for the
sake of appearance. as it has nothing

three are perfectly tight Where a
house of this kind is used a curtain
of burlap or heavy muslin should be

Pansies--North of the region from
New York city pansies do better II
set out in the spring than IL planted
in the fall. for in these regions the
flowers viii not be affected by the
strong sunlight and they should BIOS
som all summer.
Geraniums-The ordinary method of
carrying geraniums over the winter
as used by florists is as follows:
A few vigorous young plants are
taken into a conservatory or green
house and cuttings are taken from
these during the winter from which a
new supply Of plants is grown for
spring use. The cuttings for the
spring supply should not be made
later than January II good stocky
plants are desired for the next sum-
mer's use.
The ordinary householder who de-
sires to keep his or her plants through
the winter is not usually the pos
SCISSOR of a conservatory where he can
follow the method outlined above.
The following suggestions may help
him to keep part of his geraniums,
at least, throughout the winter sea-
son: Before the frost has killed the
plants dig up the geraniums and place
them In cool, damp cellar. This
cellar should be cooler than that In
which bulbs are kept, ranging in
temperature from 40 to so degrees.
in other words. such a cellar as is
suitable for storing potatoes.
The plants may be placed in deep
boxes, standing up and packed close
\ together with little dry soil about
the roots. Geraninms are also some
times hung up by the roots on the
wall or from the joists. In spring the
tops OF these plants should be cut OFF
within two or three inches of the
ground ana the roots again planted

anticipated in following this proceed

frames are then placed and the con-
creting continued until the height is
about two inches above the top of
the windows. Then. in order to
strengthen the concrete over the win
dow openings, lay two ta-inch steel
rods over each window. These rods
should be long enough to extend about
a foot on each side of the window
space. In a similar manner rods
should be laid over door openings,
these rods to prevent any cracking
of the concrete over the openings. The

Why rri,et WITS.

Can You inform me why a Califor-
MIA privet hedge looks withered. and

again withers? The hedge has been

It is in q luxuriant condition, but a
section which is under large maple
tree has this wlthered appearance.
Newark W. L. w.
The only cause for the willing OF
the privet which we can give is that
the maple tree uses up all the water
in the ground, leaving none for the
privet. The times that the privet
freshened UP were probably after
watering or after heavy rains, The
only remedy that we can suggest Is
that You water the privet very
heavily. This, perhaps, could be best
done by putting some two-inch thing,
six inches to a foot long in the
ground beside the hedges Put the

water to run In slowly. SO as not

will do better to buy your cherry
trees from some nurseryman, rather
than try to graft them; but. IL you
lave some special variety which YOU
want to perpetuate you can get some

the large nurSerymen--for instance,
those around Geneva or Rochester,
II. Y. where they make q business
of grating fruit trees--and put your
special variety upon them. Budding
Is done in the latter part Of the
