What is the greatest longing in

That the great pain that has shad-
owed the world shall be lifted and
peace come upon earth
You are sick OF haired, OF conflict.
OF slaughter, Of waste of human en-

who has a heart instead Of a pebble

good type of storage as the properly
ventilated cellar storage house.
The Aroostook type OF storage
house, with concrete or masonary
basement walls and wooden super
structure. seems to be distinctively a
product of Maine. and as far as has
been observed it Is not found to any
extent outside of the state. It is an
extensively constructed house and is
almost always located on a sidehill
or knoll in order that advantage may
be taken of a ground-level' entrance.
hat such houses have proved satisfac-
tory to the potato grower in Maine
Is evident from the fact that praoti-
cally no other style of potato storage
house Is in use in that state.
Refrigerated Storage House. ....
The artificially refrigerated potato
storage house Is as yet hardly in ex-
istence The present use of THY type
of storage house is confined practical
~ to the holding of northern-grow
seed potatoes in cold storage for sec
ond-crop planting in the South.

piles in dugout pits or potato storage
cellars. In insulated wooden struc-
lures, in substantial masonary or con-
crete houses, and in artificially re-
frigerated storage houses The latter
two methods are the most expensive
Pitting is the most primative method
of storage, but if properly done on
well-drained locations is satisfa Glory
in so far as the preservation of the
potatoes is concerned. The chief
drawback to pittng is that the pota-
toes are not always easily accessible
in the winter. =
Potato Storage Cellars.
The dugout pit or potato storage
celler is probably more widely used
than any other type Of storage space.
Fitted with tight roof it is es-
pecially popular in the central por-
tons Of the United States . In the
arid and semi-arid sections type
with sod or dirt roof is in most gen.
eral use. AS rule, the excavation
for the cheaper structures Of the dug
out pit or cellar type when erected on
level or nearly level land does not ex-
coed feet. The soil removed from
such excavation, particularly If the
dugout is of any considerable size, Is
ample for banking the side and end
walls and also for the roof. The cost
of construction may be greatly modi
fed, according to the character Of the
location.
In the cheaper duEouts, where the
soil Is of such nature as to remain
intact 1t is allowed to form the side
and end walls, the roof being sup
ported on plates resting on the soil
and held together by boards or joists.
This form of construction involves a
deeper excavation and a constant ele-
more expensive and substantial struC-
lures tho side and end walls are built
of concrete.
Insulated Frame Structures
Insulated frame potato stora ge
houses are not used very extensively.
AS a rule they are better adapted to
southern than to northern climatic
conditions The construction feature
of such houses is the thorough insu-
lation Of their walls. ceiling. doors

METHOD OF STORING
CROP OF POTATOES.
Government Tells How to Take
Care Of Expected Yield

Washington. D. c.. July t19.-The
storage Of potatoes of the main crop
can be accom- plished most satisfac-
torily throughout much Of the United
States in the dugout pit or potato
cellar in some of it's various forms
of construction, says a recently pub
lished Farmers Bulletin of the United
States Department of Agriculture
Potato Storage and Storage Houses
In general, the bulletin says, no at
tempt Is made to store potatoes Of
the early crop, since usually they are
sold for immediate consumption.
While the dugout storage house is
in most general use, concrete or ma
sonry houses with frame superstruc-
lures are, perhaps, most satisfactory
in cold climates. In some sections,
especially in the south where drain-
age is poor, insulated frame struc-
lures built entirely above ground
must be depended upon.,.,, ~.,. o.,
Purposes Of Storage.
The primary purposes of storage. it
is pointed out are to protect the tu-
bers from extremes Of heat and cold
and from light. Account also must
be taken of conditions Of humidity
and ventilation and of the size of the
storage pile.
The temperature should be the
highest at which potatoes can be
maintained firm and ungerminated,
and which will at the same time hold
fungous diseases in check. Expert
ments of the department with artifi-
cially refrigerated storage indicate
that So degrees f. is sufficiently low
for all practical purposes and that in
the earlier portion of the storage sea-
son a temperature of 40 degrees F.
is just as satisfactory as a lower one
except where powdery dry rot infec-
ton occurs.
All natural light should be excluded
from potato storage houses because
when the tubers are exposed to even
modified light, they are soon injured
for food purposes. A practical rule
in regard to humidity. the bulletin
already mentioned says. is to main
tain sufficient moisture in the air to
prevent the whiting Of the tubers and
at the same time to keep the humid
ity content low enough to prevent the
deposit of moisture on the surface OF
the tubers.
If potatoes are piled in too large
piles they may become heated
and deteriorate. Six feet is a good
maximum depth to which to pile tu-
bers in bins, and the area covered by
each pile also should be limited. A
good plan is to insert ventilated divi-
sion walls at intervals through the
pile or bin. These may be made by
mailing relatively narrow boards on
both sides of 2x4 uprights, 1 inch
spaces being lett between the boards.
General ventilation for the whole
storage house usually is accomplished
through ventilating shafts in the roof.

SUNDAY TABERNACLE
WILL SEAT 10000
Expected That Great Structure Will
Not Accommodate Crowds.

The immense tabernacle now in pro-
cess Of erection on the Union Station
Plaza for the Billy Sunday campaign
beginning January will have a seat
ing capacity of approximately 10000.
but it is likely 1t will be inadequate.
Features Of the structure will include
a rest room and restaurant, 50xl2S feet
in dimensions, and an emergency hos
pital.
DR.. Thomas A. Groover has been ap-
pointed to manage the emergency hos
pital with a staff of experienced as
sistants. DR.. James Z. Walker, ad-
vance man for Mr.. Sunday, says that
during the Boston campaign, out Of go
cases treated in the Emergency Hos
pital. only one was q result Of hys-
terra, fainting spells being the most
numerous, with IA cases. Indigestion
was responsible for TO-. while nausea
caused n others to seek relief.
The big tabernacle will have a raised
platform from which Mr.. Sunday will
deliver his addresses: The platform
has seating capacity of 2,5OO for sing
ers and distinguished citizens.
Ample accommodation has been pro-
vided for the press, and every con-
venience arranged for the public gen.
orally IN the huge edifice.
Twenty years or so ago. when Mr..
Sunday began his evangelistic career,
the rest room and restaurant in the
tabernacle now going up would have
accommodated the crowds that heard
him.

COAL Price RAISE
LIKELY IN DISTRICT
Investigations Named by Admins
traitor Soon to Report

Increase in coal prices probably
will result from an investigation into
the Washington coal situation by a
committee appointed by John L.
Weaver, District fuel administrator.
The committees report probably
will be presented December 4, Tues
day Of next week,
Mr.. Weaver yesterday said that no
decision has been made as to the
price.
Whatever It is, the price must be
sufficient to give the dealer a living
out Of his business" said the admin
istrator.
A committee of dealers and repre-
sentatives of the fuel administration
and others connected with the coal
industry was appointed by Mr..
Weaver to make an Investigation with
a view to determining a fair price
to consumer and deaier. A hearing
was given the dealers by Mr.. Weaver.
There IL good reason to believe that
the people of Washington shortly will
be paying more for their coal.
