Reasons Why Feats Of Phenomenaisy

But the Russian lion was wenklinf

1t Is said OF this particular, Irish
man that when he went fishing fOi

sunken types OF house, and under some
circumstances they will be preferred
to the other type.
The length Of time ice may be kept
depends upon the character of insula,
ton provided. This will naturally
vary with the location of the Ice house
and the method of construction. An
other important factor will be the cost
of construction.
The simplest type Of ice preserva-
ton consists in stacking the cakes in
n compact mass on Il welEdrained'site,
as well protected as possible by nat
ural or artificial barriers from sun and
wind, and covering the mass with saw
dust. shavings. fodder. marsh hay. or
any other good insulating material.
Such a crude method is not to be rec
commended except as temporary
makeshift for Ice which Is to be used
early in the season.

Save Garden Seed.

Every boy and girl who has had Il
garden this season should, whenever
possible, save seed for next years
planting. In many cases 1t Is possible
to gather beans and peas that have be-
come too old for eating. thus assuring
a supply Of good seed for next years
planting. As rule. with limited gar
den areas it will not pay to grow beans,
peas, sweet corn and other vegetables
for the production of seed, but when a
surplus Is allowed to become too old
for eating 1t does pay to save this sur
plus for seed. Sufficient tomato.
squash, melon, cucumber, and corn
seed may be saved from the product of
attention is given the matter.
Seed should be saved only from
strong, healthy plants. In the case of
beans, peas, and sweet corn, the seed
should be allowed to ripen on the
plant. In the case Of such plants as
tomatoes, cucumbers, etc., the fruits
from which the seed is to be saved
should be well riDened. Remove the
seed and spread it out to dry. All
seed must be thoroughly dry before
being. stored. Garden seeds must be
kept in q vermin-proof, well-ventilated
receptacle. A tin bread box Is ideal,
as it supplies the proper amount of
ventilation and mice cannot destroy
the contents. Care should be taken to
label every package Of seed to avoid
confusion at planting time. Keep the
seed box in a dry, well-ventilated
room, such as a room on the second
floor of the dwelling.

in banks or pits. Tomatoes, peas and
string beans NAV be canned. Dry
beans may be kept by. gathering and
storing in dry place. By storing,
canning. or drying all surplus vege-
tables every boy or girl can help the
nation solve the food problem. The
U. S. department of agriculture. Wash

on canning, drying. and storing garden
products. Write for copies Of them.
