on, WE'LL said the Carrots what
can one expect from the Squash fam
lily? They're not considered the most
wonderful food in the world by any
body, whether they are cooked one
way or the other
"'And who thinks so much of the
Carrots? asked Mrs. Squash.
The Rabbits said the Carrots
haughtily. They think more of the
Carrots than of anything else. The
little dears,' ended the Carrots hap
PLY.
You're quite right, Carrots said
the Apples. But think of US. We're
the ones to be thought of
"'And why? asked Mr.. Potato. For
he wanted TO have all the attention
himself.
Because we can be stewed, we can
be baked, we can be made into pud-
dings, pies and tarts. Potatoes can
just be potatoes, that's all
Well, that's enough said Mrs. Po-
tato.
Yes, said Mr.. Potato. we can be
fried or boiled or baked, and we can
be stewed too. What is more than
anything. we can be mashed! We're
simply delicious Them
"'Well, said the Apples, we don't
think it's much of an honor to be
mashed. Not muchl As if anything
thought it fine to be mashed. That
shows that you're not so fine as we

Ha, ha, chuckled Mrs. Squash as
she rolled to one side. Mr.. Potato had
been very rude to Mrs. Squash and
she was glad to hear him being
snubbed little for change.

the long drive may be greatly depleted
by starvation and thirst the remnant
reaching their destination only fit for
boiling down.
Stock routes are laid out and tended
as carefully as wagon roads or rail
ways. They head for the principal
markets, or for the ends of railroads
which extend into the arid belt and
wind across the country taking advan-
tage of all known water supplies
Streams, springs, billabongs and
gnamma holes are used, regardless of
the quality of the water, for almost
any liquid is acceptable in the desert.
When the distances between water
ing places are too great, or areas of
feed are beyond the reach of water,
artificial supplies are provided and
kept under surveillance. In places
wells are dug. elsewhere reservoirs and
tanks designed to collect storm water
of infrequent rains are constructed
Many of these are built below the sur
face and covered to check evaporation.
Where other means fail, skeleton build
ings with large roof area are con
structed to conserve rain water.
