still. in crates. If sufficient space is
plan simply to place them in small
piles along the wall. Storage in large
piles should he avoided, as it is liable
to cause heating and decay.
For storage in banks or pits, pre-
pare the beets as for storage in the
room in the basement or in the out
door cellar. Select well-drained To-
cation, make shallow excavation,
about six inches deep, line ii with
straw, hay, leaves. or similar material,
and place the beets in conical pile
on the lining. Make the bottom of the
pile about the same size as but not
larger than the bottom of the eXcava-
ton. Cover the beets with the same
material as that used for lining the
bottom of the pit, and carry 1t up sew
cral inches above the apex of the pile
of vegetables, having it extend through
the dirt covering. This serves as a
ventilating flue, and 1t should be COW
cred with n piece of tin or n short
board as a protection from rain. The
dirt covering should be two or three
inches thick when the vegetables are
stored, and 1t should be increased as
severely cold weather approaches UNI
til It Is a foot or more In thickness.
In finishing the pit, the dirt should be
firmed with the back Of the shovel In
order to make It as nearly waterproof
as possible.
Cabbages.
Heads of cabbage may be cut off and
and stored In conical pits in the same
manner as beets. Another common
and very satisfactory method is to pull
the plants, roots and all, and place
them in a long pit with the heads
down. A few heads may be removed
from time TO time without disturbing
the remainder of the pit. As slight
freezing does not injure the cabbage,
the covering of the pit need not be as
thick as for other vegetables.
Another good method of storing cab
bage Is Illustrated in Fig. 10. the
plants are pulled, roots and all, ana
set side by side with the roots down
in Il shallow trench, the length of
which corresponds TO the width of the
bed. The bed may be any width up to
8 to 10 feet and as long as necessary
TO hold the number of cabbages to be
stored. Cover the roots with earth.
Around the bed erect frame OF rails
boards, or poles, or by driving Il row
of stakes into the ground so that an
Enclosure about two feet in height Is
formed. Bank the outside of this
frame with dirt and place poles across
