In Jars of Pottery.

Water is made delicious1y cool by
putting it at night into jars Of coarse
pottery and placing these out doors
where the night air can reach them.
The pottery is SO porous that some
Of the water will ooze out during the
night, leaving the rest delightfully."-
cool. Glazed pottery cannot be used
for the purpose. Each jar must be
protected by a covering of fine wire,
mosquito netting or cheesecloth to
keep the contents clean and yet admit
the air

Keeping Flowers With Sugar.

Two professors Of the school of ag-
riculture at Rennes, France, have
made some interesting experiments in
prolonging the lives of cut flowers.
One hundred different flowers were
used in the experiments, and it was
found that sugar helped to keep most
of them fresh, but was positively in
furious to lilies and sweet peas. 1t
hastens the opening of roses and
orchids, but did not thus affect tulips,
daisies or chrysanthemums.
Experiments were made with small
quantities of choral, ether, glycerin,
alcohol, limewater and ammonia salts,
each of which served to lengthen the
life of various flowers. Some of the
flowers kept in sugar and water lived
four times as long as they ordinarily
would
The sugar does not have an exactly
equal effect on the different flowers
1t preserves. Carnations seem to like
a Is per cent solution and roses do
better. in a solution Of from 8 to 10
per cent.-F1orists' Exchange.

WHERE YOU CAN HELP.

The first step taken by the Thurston County
Farm Bureau--and the most essential-toward
the solution of the local farmers worst problem,
that of finding market for what he grows. APP
pears in the letter addressed to many farmers of
the county during the past week and reprinted
in another column in this issue. 1t refers to the
Standardization of the county's two important
crops, strawberries and potatoes and sets forth
the reasons for its advice.
Being the first formal recommendation of this
nature to the farmers of this county, that letter
not only demands your careful attention and
study but it's advice should most certainly be
carried out. What it says may differ from your
own ideas somewhat, but regardless of that, after
calling your attention to your worst difficulty, 1t
points out how it can be overcome and specifically
names certain things you should do. If you do
not do them, the Farm Bureau will not only not
have been fairly assisted, but your situation will
be no better than it is now.
The Farm Bureau has found market for GER
tain varieties and advised you to grow them; it
has brought about condition that has not ex
listed here before, basis of cooperation between
grower and buyer; it has pointed out to you that
if you grow certain varieties you sell them.
Would it seem wise, then, not to do what it
