Natural storage is the simplest and
least expensive method of keeping\veg-
etables for fall and winter consump-
ton. Wherever practicable, this meth
cd should be made use of, especially
this season when the conservation of
food and the keeping down of food ex-
penses is peculiarly important. Own
eFs of home gardens are, in general,
best situated for storing vegetables
since they probably have SURPRISES Of
vegetables in the fall. It often is pos
sible, however, for other householders
to buy vegetables cheaply enough in
the fall to justify the preparation and
stocking of storage places.
Storage is especially successful with
the root, tuber, and bulb crops such as
carrots, potatoes, onions, etc. Cab
bage, celery, pumpkins also winter
squash, mature beans and peas, and
number Of other vegetables also may
be stored.
The successful storage of vegetables
is not at all difficult; in fact, good
storage facilities already exist in most
homes, it being only necessary to make
use of the cellar, the attic, a large
closet, or other parts of the dwelling,
depending upon the character Of the
product to be stored.
Storage Room in the Basement Of the
Dwelling.
A cool, well-ventilated cellar under
the dwelling offers good conditions for
the storage of vegetables. Many eel.

In the Oriental manner. There is very
little that would ever appeal to Poiret
in the first and second empire fash

he does. He has genius for fabrics.

do, and he has special places that work

Various Designs

New York.-This Is vastly exciting
time in the fashion zone. It is not
alone exciting because women want
new clothes for new season, but for
the more important reason that COM
merce in this country is entirely en-
tangled In the industry Of clothes
A question as to what will be worn
Is supposed to concern itself with wom-
ans vanity. Never was there such a
foolish conclusion. The question of
what will be worn is inextricably
mixed up with the lives Of millions
of industrial workers in this country
and upon it's judicious adjustment de-
pend the bread and butter, the happi-
ness and the ability to be free, from
nervous depression Of thousands of
men too old or too young to fight and
thousands Of women who have not the
leisure to offer their services to war
relief.
1t is a curious thing that the woman
who wants to know, even through an
assumed Indifference, whether her coat
and skirts are in fashion, should be so
densely ignorant Of the vast ramif1ca-
tons of fashions into the fnnermost
recesses of American life.
No one laughs at fashions in Paris.
No one takes them lightly. Every one
regards them as d supreme branch of
French industry that brings welfare
to millions. Each artist takes his or
her designs for new clothes under seri-
Gus consideration, and the state &C
cords them the merit or demerit that
they deserve.
Now, what have these great de-
signers done for America this season
That is the leading question among the
shopkeepers, the dressmakers, the mil.
lions Of woman workers in the in.
dustry Of clothes, the mills, the manu-.
facturers, the importers and the ex.
porters.
We know that the styles for the
autumn have been settled, but the
masses do not know what each de.
signer has done and what each great
fashion establishment has sponsored.
To begin with, Paul Poiret has again
opened his house, to show models

HOTEL BURNS
TWO KILLED
A DOZEN PERSONS ARE MISSING
AS THE RESULT Or AN EARLY
MORNING FIRE.
MANY PERSONS INJURED
4 Score or More Were Injured in
Jumping from Windows.
Several of These May
Die.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi. Feb. 12.-
One woman is known to be dead, a
dozen persons are missing and a
score were injured as the result of
fire which destroyed the Kenwood
hotel early this morning Policemen
are searching the ruins for bodies.
Mrs. Lucille Squire, aged 80, was
killed when she jumped from a third
story window.
Five persons were seen to fall back
into the flames when a ledge from
which they were preparing to leap
gave way. 1t is estimated that at
least seventy-six persons were in the
hotel.
A gasoline explosion in the base
ment is thought to have started the
fire. Spectators who arrived before
the firemen reached the scene res
cued many persons by piling boxes
as fire escapes from the fower floor.
Much of the down town appara-
tus was in service at another fire
when the alarm came in, delaying
the arrival of the department. When
the first fire company arrived twen~
ty minutes late without ladders furi-
Gus spectators attacked the firemen.
Captain Sullivan OF Engine Company
No. was struck over the head and
the scalp cut.
Many on the lower floors saved
themselves by jumping from the win
dows. Several were injured in this
manner. There was only one fire
escape in the building. 1t was at
tached to the rear wall and could on
ly be reached thru occupied rooms.
The main stairway was destroyed
by the flames before many in the
hotel had been aroused. More than
score who were taken to hospitals
and private homes may die. Owing
| to the confusion which prevailed def
mite estimates of the dead were diff
| ficult to obtain.
The hotel was a semi-fashionable
residence hotel
A body so badly burned that II
could not be identified as a man OF
woman was taken from the ruins al
noon.
The total known dead is now two
/ with eleven still missing and beliey-
ed to be dead.

THE QUESTION OF ARMING MER-

WASHINGTON. Feb. 12.-Admin-

ping men over the forced detention
of American vessels in home ports
because of Germany's U-boat war
This feeling appears likely to has
ten the solution of the question OF
armament for merchantmen. The
solution will probably be the direct
or indirect issuance by the navy de-
partment of guns to merchant ships
desiring them. The authorities felt
that Germany ought to be in posi-

ping from the seas through fear Of
her submarines, and despite the talk

While the state department frank
ly stated Saturday that the navy de-

it being an hostile act, the admin

have the action indirect. The whole
situation has been turned over to the
navy department for consideration.
II may be decided to sell the guns

One of the highest government of
