BY r. G. HOLDEN.

WYE CAN have rhubarb fresl
wv from the garden all winter
If we will devote but q little
time and labor to transferring the
plants to the cellar.
The proper time to remove rhubarb
plants from the outdoor garden is
late in the fall or early n the win
ter, after the top soil has frozen.
Select vigorous plants and, with q
sharp spade, Dig them up carefully,
allowing considerable dirt to cling
to the roots.
Place the plants close together in
that part of the cellar where they
will receive light the greater part
of the, day and where the tempera-
ture will not be too hot, but will be
warm enough to thaw out the soil
and keep the plants growing.
The soil clinging to the roots will
dry out rapidly and the plants
should be frequently watered. Do
not sprinkle them with a hose or
water them too heavily, as there is
roots.
elf given but very little attention
the rhubarb will grow vigorously all
winter, providing. an abundance of
crisp, pink stalks for pies or sauce.
In the spring they may be transplant
ed to the outdoor garden and will
continue their growth with but very
little interruption.
Celery can be left outdoors until
late in the fall, but before severe
freezing weather sets in should be
dug up, allowing the soil to cling to
the roots, and stored in the cellar in
boxes. The plants should be set close
together and the spaces between
filed with dirt or sand. Very little,
if any, light is required for celery.
Brussels sprouts and caulifower
can be transplanted to boxes in the
cellar in the same manner as celery,
Parsnips, carrots, beets, turnips
and radishes may be stored in sand
or moist sawdust in the cellar or in
an outdoor pit.
Cabbages are best kept in trench
outdoors, but will keep very we'll
for while If buried in barely moist
sawdust or sand in barrels or boxes
in the cellar.
Pumpkins and squashes can be
kept for limited period in warm,
dry part of the cellar.
Potatoes should be stored in an
outdoor pit or in dry bin in the
cellar, where the temperature is not
high enough to cause them to sprout
or low enough to freeze them.

from the prison or I will shoot them
myself" and the promise of the Ger
man official to obey Gerard's COM
mand brought further Endorsement
from Joseph.
Finally, in the Lusitania scene, the
laughter of the German general staff
at the fiendish murder of women and
children, the kaiser's eagerness to see
Gerard when the latter had told him
that an audience was no longer de-
sired, the defiant declaration of the
passport officer when he said Amer
lea will not fighN'-all these things
made Witkowska's blood tingle.
He was not one of those who quit
the hall because 1t was so hot that a
boiler room would have been cool by
comparison. But he enjoyed every
minute of his stay because he felt that
1t was the truth about Germany that
should be explained If soldiers were
to have the proper spirit
Then as the American answer to
the German boast that Wilson would
not fight was depicted with the
marching of thousands of valiant SOL
diers. sailors and marines, and the
interviewed flags of the allies were
flashed at the finale, Joseph told how
he wished his father might have been
present to see the picture with him.
my father Is now in favor of the
United States against Germany" he
said. because he is a naturalized
citizen of this country and his al
legiance is not divided. This Is true
of great many persons in this coun-
try who before the United States en-
tered the war were in favor of Ger
many, the land of their birth"
His father is a cabinetmaxer in Bal
timore. He is partly Polish and bears
a Polish name. Josephss friends think
that the fact that he had ancestors
in the land of Pulaski and Kosciusko
is the real reason why he is such
an independent in his views. De-
mocracy was long ago rampant in
Poland before it was drowned out by
Prussian militarism.
It might be said in passing that
Josept's mother was of French
descent and that he inherits from her
in part the noble thoughts on fair
dealing for high and low which
prompt him to become good Ameri-
can soldier.
s"This picture is just what every
body needs. It gives the facts about
what we are lighting" he said.
Finally this gallant convert from
kaiserism declared: II shall stick it
out on this line until have given all
have to give

Eight years is the duration of

He was honorably discharged from

A distinct honor came to Buyck
when he was elected a member of
the Royal Academy of Belgium. His
professional experience includes the
painting of numerous portraits and
iranY me landscapes. He had full
charge of the exhibition of works Of
art held in Client in 1912 and 1913. He
has also much experience as a scenic
decorator. the products of his brush

Royale in Brussels.
Buyck has been in this country for
two years and half and for several
months was at the Watervliet ar

the country's best known painters for
his very fine products. His military
experience has given him a splendid

thought of late to the camoufiago
work the United States is doing and
perhaps Uncle Sam may put him in

Fink had every reason to be a little
opposed to mules on general princi-
pies. He had been confined to the hos.
pital twice, the result of being in con-
tact with a mules heels. One memoir
able encounter resulted in the mules
sitting on Fink, but he survived the
ordeal and has slightly swollen arm

Joseph Witkowska's father was
German soldier.
Joseph is a soldier of the United

the stanchest supporters of the allies
in this war against German autoc-

The picture recalled to witkow-
ska's mind the day nine years ago,
when he was fifteen, that he began
to study the real history of the
Hohenzollern dynasty and the system
of caste which dominates the German
empire. His home training had all
taught him to believe that there was
no government on earth which COM
pared to the German. But he thought
for himself and did his own investi-

were shown knocking down prisoners
