which builds a regular mud fort dur
ing the breeding season in order to
protect her eggs and tadpoles. The

and repeats the process until she has
erected a circular wall about one foot
in diameter. She keeps on till the
wall stands at least five inches above
the surface Of the water, and the
whole is most carefully smoothed
down with her broad, webbed hands.
The work is performed only at night.

At an Irish assize deaf old lady,
who had brought an action for dam

COLD STORAGES
TO SAVE POTATOE

IL oApE fOIAIOES
Washington, d. CAS- potatoes cal
be kept from sprouting and losing
their food value by placing them in
cold storage plants, the Bureau OF
Markets OF the United States De-
partment of Agriculture suggests that
holders Of stocks of potato S con
slider the advisability o. shifting por.-
tons of their holdings from com
mon to cold storage, provided such
stocks are OF good quality and the
costs of handling are not excessive.
Unless such potatoes are moved very
soon serious losses by sprouting and
decay will result, which can only be
avoided by keeping them at cold
storage temperatures. Directions for
handling potatoes in cold storages
are given by the department.
Potatoes should be stored in the
cold storage house in bags, boxes,
or crates, which should be piled so
as to permit free circulation of air,
and care should be exercised In hand
ling them to avoid all unnecessary in
jury. II potatoes are sorted and
graded and placed in cold storage
at temperature of "a to So degrees
Fahrenheit, with humidity at 80 to
80 they can be held in good condi--
ton and available for food until July
]. Generally in the spring, before
the movement of new potatoes from
the South has started, there is a
period of limited supply Of good
potatoes, and If these common stor-
ase stocks are placed in cold stor-
age, this period Of limited supply will
oa eliminated.
