PLAN TO STORE VEGETABLES
Bruises Form a Place for Decay Germs
to Enter-Ory in Sun Before
Putting in Storage.

(By H WERNER. North Dakota ES-
eeriment Station)
Vegetables must be stored under the
conditions that will keep them in the
best condition for use
In the first place they should be
handled carefully. Bruises form
place for decay germs to enter. The
vegetables store best if little imma-
ture Cabbage. celery ana ROOT crops
keep best at low temperature. with
fairly moist atmosphere and good ven
tilation. Onions keep best Just above
freezing in dry atmosphere. Squash
and pumpkins need a dry atmosphere
at about nifty degrees. Celery when
dug IS really transplanted as IT has
to be kept growing when in storage.
Dig 1t with a good deal of soil on the
roots and plant closely IN sand or
loose damp soil in a cool cellar or pit
The root crops keep best when buried
In sand or soil IN a cool place The
vegetables. excepting celery. will keer
better If well dried in the sun before
being stored.

ciently matured. too much acid de-
velops. II too ripe. 1t does not settle
properly and the air is not excluded.
Corn should not be cut until the
ears are out OF the milk and most OF
the kernels glazed and hard.
The corn should be cut with a corn
binder. as it is much more easily
handled when bound in bundles. II
the silage cutter is large and the work
is done with a good force OF men, the
corn binder should have a start OF
half a day II enough horses are used
on the binder TO Keep il moving at
good pace the corn can be cut down
az fast as 1t can be put into the silo
Using a small cutter with large en-
gine is dangerous unless great care is
exercised IN controlling the power.
II silage is TO keep well ii must
settle evenly To this end the leaves
and the heavier parts OF the corn
must be kept thoroughly mixed and
evenly distributed in the silo Owing
TO the great pressure OF silage, fric-
ton with the sides of the silo has
tendency to make the silage less COM
pact at the edge. and for this reason
it should be thoroughly tramped next
the side. Every time three or four
inches OF cut material is added TO the
silo II should be tramped thoroughly
around the edge. taking short steps
and packing the siage as much as
possible next to the wall These pre-
cautions must be observed during I'LL
ing to obtain perfect silage.
After hlling. the top six inches
should be wet once and the whole sur
face tramped every day for week tc
obtain a thin, compact layer OF well
rooted silage which will exclude TIL
air.

As Was anticipated the announce

tract who were ignorant that such n
proceeding was contemplated As
was also expected the Times came in
Tor It's share Of criticism from few
OF the radicals who seem to Imagine
mat this paper is feminist any move

paper has always and still stands for
the best welfare Of the settlers on the
tract and We have every reason to
believe that We are yoicing the senti-

tiers when We are Directing 10 the
enforcement Of d receiver upon them
We have offered no word of criti-
cism relative to the other matters
that are contained IN the petition.
and IS hile it is probable that no two
men on the tract viii agree on every
thing. there has always been feel
ing existing that there We're some
questions in the contract that should
bee permanently decided by the courts
and there is no better time than the
present 10 have these questions set
tied True many Of the questions

been decided ia trials in the local
courts. and even the supreme court
of The state has passed upon some OF
them. but the desire that the Feder-
al court pass upon them is not OBJ
jected 20 by the Times
As for the receivership. there are
plenty OF settlers on the tract who at
once realize what that means. and it
is unnecessary for us to recite the
disastrous results that have followed

suggested that the Germans intended TO

obviously would be impossible.

How the Keystone Steel Company. of

French government for 100000 steel

on a business mission.
Mr.. Collins was reticent about dis
cussing the affairs Of his company until
he had read press dispa. ches from
Peoria stating that he had shown a
sample arrow TO friends there, shortly
before his departure. He said he had
dispatched the rejected contract and

representative OF the French govern

deauX, France, from whom they came.
The offer was made TO the steel com
pany late last month. and 20 cents for
each arrow. or $4,000, was offered for
the work. This figure would allow a
handsome profit on their manufacture,
Mr. Collins declared, and the French
promised additional orders if the first
consignment was turned out promptly
and satisfactorily.
But my firm, soon after the war
started, refused 20 manufacture steel

PALMER IS GLAD TO
GET OUT OF BELGIUM
The Very Atmosphere Ghostly
and Speaks of Repression of
Civilized People.

London. Jan. 7.--Frederick Palmer,
the we'll known American writer who
has lust returned to London after
trip through Belgium. said to-day:
"The one thing you want after you
have been in Belgium few days IS
to get out of Belgium for the sake or
your nerves. Belgium is house with
sealed doors. where family OF seven
millions sits in silence around cheer
less hearth thinking of nothing but
war and feeling nothing but war.
America opened the window with her
neutral hand and slipped a loaf OF
bread into the larder. War in the
trenches is cheerful compared with a
Belgian in Belgium. with bread line
and in the background the ruins OF
Louvain.
This is only one Of hundreds Of
haunting pictures. There is something
i'm the very atmosphere which IL
ghostly and which speaks of the repres-
sion Of civilized people under military
restrain, unable to give voice TO their
thoughts and unable to move from one
town to another. The people are pray
ing for the day of deliverance. Two
thirds of the population is idle. They
can get no work They can only keep
on thinking and go each day for ra-
tions 10 keep their bodies alive w. :
the bread which Americans have given.
There is no doubt the Belgians are
getting the food intended for them.
Not one mouthful IS going to the Ger
mans. German officialdom leans over
backward in the desire to play straight.
Such are the orders from Berlin, where
il would be known instantly If the
Germans took any American food. Re.
lief work in such case would cease and
the whole world would be told the rea-
son. If relief ceases there will be
riots. The people will throw them
selves on German bayonets and there
will be scenes in Belgium whose hor-
rcrs will make other horrors of this
