t1cally any part of this farmhouse
basement can be used for storing po-
tatoes, apples, etc.
There is some attic space above for
storage, or possibly for extra sleep
ing space.
If we were called to build this house
or n similar one, what would be the
right way { o begin? This would de-
pend a little on the conditions. but in
most cases the first step is to stake
out the lot for excavation.
Being out in the country there Is
no sidewalk or street grade to be fol-
lowed or measured from. The owner
will tell where he wants it and the
drawing shows how high 1t is to be
above the ground.
Having the house face the east, lay
out the rectangie 25x2S feet, getting
the corners square. and running the
lines level and marking the height Of
the wall at each corner. With a tran
sit this would not take long. but you
may need to use a level and square
the lines by the 6-8-1O rule.
Next set out the lines for the front
porch, as this Is to be dug out Nke
the cellar. which seems to be a good
idea, as II gives more ROOM.
For this. run q line 6 feet from the

cape. In cold weather both the hinged
door and the damper in the air pipe
must be closed. The windows in the
storage room should be darkened In
order to protect the vegetables from
too much light.
Barrels, crates, boxes or bins may
be used as containers for the various
vegetables, but movable containers are
preferable to built-in bins, as it is pos
sible to remove them for cleaning.
Using Outside Cellars.
Outdoor storage cellars or caves are
particularly good for the storage of
many vegetables. They are especially
desirable on the farm, as they afford
convenient and inexpensive storage IA
cilities for surplus vegetables that 9TH
erwise might be lost. They possess all
the advantages of the basement stor-
age room and are superior in many re-
spects. 1t is possible to keep the Gel
lar cool and to reduce temperature
quickly by opening the door during the
night, and closing 1t in the morning
before the air becomes warm.
AS the root cellar must be proof
against frost and moisture, it's types
and construction vary with the geo.
graphical location. In the southern
portion of this country the structure
usually is entirely above ground and
protected by only a few inches of sod
and straw or leaves. In northern Sec
lions outdoor cellars are made almost
entirely below ground and are covered
with a foot or two of earth.
Full directions for the construction
Of storage rooms and cellars and for
the storage of vegetables are contained
In Farmers Bulletin S79. "Home StOr.
age of Vegetables" which will be sent
free on request to the U. s. Depart
ment OF Agriculture.

JUST THE OLD HUN TRICK
London Press Asserts Austria's Peace
Conference Is Cynical and
I%nslncere.

LOndon.-The Daily Mail, under the
heading "The Word of Austria. but
the Kaiser's Voice" says the Austrian
invitation to the allies to open "a con
fdential. nOnbinding discussion" OF
peace terms Is another form of the old
German trick.
The Daily Telegraph says: "Nego-
tiations at the present moment even
though they brought temporary peace
would only postpone the final struggle
between might and right. So long as
the kaiser and his pan-G Germans direct
with irresistible authority the destinies
Of Germany so long can there be no
question Of an armlstice or purely
academic negotiations. The note is dis
ingenious, cynical, and insincere-an
attempt to divert the entente powers
from a resolute prosecution Of the
war"
The Austrian note is regarded In
this country as a maneuver to obtain
needed breathing space for the sorely
tried central empires and to impress
their W people with the desires Of
their rulers for a cessation Of the
struggle which is wearing them to a
shadow.
Undoubtedly 1t Is a part Of a COM
bined peace offensive which has been
expected for some time, and which has
taken definite form within the last
few days. 1t is n Of three moves
which have been made almost stimuli
t%aneOusly by enemy states.

SILENT CHAINS ON INCREASE
Not Amiss to Remind Automobile Own.
er That These Parts Should BE
Cleaned Often.

The tendency toward the use Of ST.
lent chains seems to be increasing. 1t
may not be amiss then, to remind the
a owner that these parts should be
cleaned frequently, especially when
they in an exposed position as In
some starter and generator installa-
tiOns. The proper method of proce-
dure is to remove the chain from its
place, submerge it in kerosene oil for
Is minutes. Then dry 1t thoroughly
and next submerge it in a medium
grade Of lubricating oil, permitting it
to remain in the bath until the oil has
reached every bearing surface. Hard
grease never should be employed as a
chain lubricant.

front line and make 1t 3 feet shorter
at each end. Then there is the cellar
way at the rear. The pier is out 5 feet
from the wall and 1t is 10 feet from
this to the farther wall. For the other
measurements one may scale the draw
ing and get II feet from the corner
of the wall to the wall Of cellar way.
Establishing the Lines.
Before the excavation Is begun 1t
will be necessary to drive a stake
back each way from the so
they will not be disturbed. And as
you will want more lines, for the In
side OF the walls and for the foOtings
and perhaps o center line. 1t will be
best to drive two stakes and put a
board on them to hold these lines.
You may as well get these boards
level and the same height so that the
lines will serve as guides for the faces
of the walls and also for the height
and depth.
While the cellar Is being dug you
will want to get some material on to
tut Jul u Tic II " thC
wall, and material for the wall.
We will suppose that the wall forms
are to begin at the bottom and are to
be on both sides of the wall. Let us
see what we can use of the stuff for
the house without hurting it. The
floor jOists will be ~ and 16 feet
long. 8 and 10 inches wide. These will
work nicely for the long sides on the
outside and can be used on the short
sides by letting them run by.
We must not cut these ~joists, but
shall need some shorter stuff for the
inside of the walls and for the studs
of the forms. The jOistS at the ends
of the stairs will be shorter and can
be cut. Also those stills on the porches.
There will be short joists on the
pOrches, though the front ones seem
to he shown full length, we will hard
ly u them % feet.

the forms can be most any length we

Illuminating GAS
QUITE ECONOMICAL
It Would Be Cheaper Than Gaso-
line as Motorcar Fuel.
British Government Committee Finds
1t Can Be Effectively and Prompt-
Iy Substituted Without Very
Much Trouble.

The British governments committee
on gas traction has issued a report in
favor of Illuminating gas for motor
cars. 1t finds that ordinary city gas
can be effectively, safely and promptly
substituted for gasoline as fuel in in
ternal combustion engines of the COM
mon automobile types without chang
ing the compression space in the cyl
inders, New York Commercial states.
Gas is economical, $50 feet of it
being equal to an imperial gallon Of
motor spirit, or gasoline. The British
imperial gallon is equal to one and
One-quarter American standard gal
Ions, so 200 feet of gas a be sub
stituted for Our gallon. With gas at
81 per 1000 cubic feet, the equivalent
of a gallon of gasoline would cost 20
cents, and gas would be cheaper than
gasoline on this basis if a charging fee
of 25 cents a thousand feet were
levied.
If 1t becomes necessary to do so,
gas could be substituted without trOu-
BILE, according to this English report:
City gas would be simpler to use once
the slight necessary changes were
made, because it would be uniform in
quality and it would mix readily and
perfectly with air at all temperatures
and under all atmospheric conditions.
We must make all sacrifices neces-
sary for winning the war, but it would
be foolish to make unnecessary ones
which disturb industries and incon-
venience the public.
New York gas companies have al
ready demonstrated the feasibility Of
using city gas in this way, and it will
be easy to follow what has been done
in England. The automobile plays too
important a part in modern life to be
laid aside, even temporarily, in war
time If it can be avoided. The ground
used to produce feed for horses in
America would furnish food for all
the soldiers we shall ever send across
the seas, so the greater the substitu-
ton Of motorcars for drawn vehicles
the more food will be available for
human beings. There seems to be no
good reason for limiting the use of
and mOtOrtrucks when
city gas, alcohol and benTol can take
the place Of gasoline. :

GOOD RULES FOR
new AUTO OWNER
Most Accidents Are Avoidab|e
When Proper Care Has Been
Observed by Driver.
IGNORANCE ALSO IS BLAMED
sojourn in Hospital May Be Averted
by Those Just Learning to Operate
Cars by Following Suggestions
Of an Expert.

In almost every case automobile ac-
cidents can be traced to some care
lessness on the part of the drivers !;
some of this is wantOn and some Of it
due to ignorance. Those who are be-
ginning to drive their own automobiles
may save themselves Il s~OjOurn in a
hospital by learning and practicing the
following ten rules for drivers sug-
gested by Paul B. Huyette, president
Of the Motor club Of Philadelphia:
1. Keep to the right, especially on
turns. This does not mean right CEN
ter. In the event of an accident, nine
times out of ten, if you're on the right
side, you're in the right.
9. Stay clear of the tracks whenever
you can. You'll save tires as well as
the tempers of many in the trolley be-
hind. Remember that the tracks are
reserved chiefly and primarily for the
trolley.
Policeman Is Friend.
8. The traffic policeman Is your
friend. Remember him as such. Co.
operate, don't hinder. The bluecOat
In the center of the street has the same
relation to you as the Waterman at a
railroad crossing.
4. Don't indulge in friendly races in
city streets. The results are too fire.
Quently painful in more ways than
me-.
5. Don't try to beat the "Stop-Go"
sign just as the policeman is chang
ing the signal. If you're travelling
south the driver of a car going east
also may attempt to pass the corner
as the sign turns.
6. Use your horn judiciously in warm
ing pedestrians. The average automo-
bile horn has an effect just the Op-
posite Of what is desired; 1t frlghtens
and causes indecisiOn.
z. You and your car will have a
longer life If you give the benefit Of
doubt to the other vehicle. We need
more courtesy Of the road anyhow.
The Long Island railroad says: Bet
ter wait a minute at n crossing than
an hour in a doctors Office.
street 10 Danger TratI.
8. A wet street is a danger trail. On
rainy days most drivers are careful.
The time to watch also Is at night in
spring and summer when you pass here
and there through a street just flushed
when your tires, of course, are with
out chains.
9. Be careful in leaving your car on
a steeply inclining street. There have
been three cases in as many weeks of
automobiles plunging down those
streets.
10. The traffic courts are Overbur-
dened with trials for offenders who
might have avoided trouble easily II
they had observed some simple regula-
lions.
