New Circular on
Vegetable Storage

The Utah Experiment Station
has just published Circular No. 20,
on Storing Vegetables for Win
ter by DR.. NJ, c. Merrill, horti-
culturist. The following general
headings are discussed: Cd Fun
damental Principles Underlying
Storage Practice; (2) Storage
Requirements ;.(3) Types of Stor-
age; and az Storage Conditions
for Different Types of Vegetables.
For generations the human fam
lily has been storing away its sur
plus crops in the season of plenty
for use during the season when
nature is non-productive. In that
time certain practices have been
developed and have been taught
by father to son for hundreds Of
years. Despite the fact that the
subject is so important, compare
lively little research work has
been done during all that period
to determine the best conditions
for the storage Of the surplus pro-
duce. We are, therefore, even
now using many of the methods
of our fore-fathers, fact which
speaks highly for their utility.
The call is becoming more and
more persistent, however, for
more definite and reliable infor-
nation along this line, and it is
hoped that the time is not far dis
tant when the Experiment Sta
IONS of the country will have ad-
ditional facts and data of value
pertaining to this subject. The
great goal that is sought, of
course, is the prevention of all
loss and waste from our pits and
cellars due to improper conditions
of storage.
In this circular, which should
prove of especial interest and val
ne to farmers and to the war
gardeners" of this year who are
storing away the products of the
soil, the dominant idea seems to
be the giving of the why" OF
vegetable storage as we'll as the
how The various methods
now in use are discussed. as also
the best conditions under which
the produce should be stored, as
far as known at present.
