EER NOTES.

The Flu: An anxious mother wants to know what precautions to take now in order to prevent her children and also the older members of the fOmiiy from having the influenza this coming winter The children have already started to school and some mornings it is quite chilly Anyone working about the house or even outdoors would be delighted with the temperature but it is nec- ossary to build a fire in the sitting room 10 make grandmother comfor- table, and it must be quite chilly in the school room. One of the children she says, is always troubled with taking cold easily and should it be kept at home until the fires are start ed or should the trustees te asked to start them now?
 CAnswer) It is a bit late to start your work of prevention now but bet ter late than not at all. As for the school room fires, do not start them unless the rooms are damp No changes should be made in the chill dren's clothing while on the way to school They should wear no wraps while on the way; the exercise they get walking will keep them warm but go personally to the teacher, take their coats or sweaters along and have her see to it that these are put on and kept on so long as the tenn perature of the room is below 6S de- Erees- Also have the teacher see to it that the wraps are taken off when they go out to play.
 It has been the custom to put on the wraps at home, wear them to school, get quite warm on the way, then take off the wraps and sit at the desks, get chilled and the natur- al result is sore throats, coughs and colds The outdoor schools for sick children In the big cities prove that fires are unnecessary and in most cases a detriment to health because of poor ventilation.
 As for prevention of the flu have sent forward by mail the complete directions that we found so success full last winter.

CATHEDRAL AT WINCHESTER HAS
 LONGEST NAVE

Winchester Cathedral has the long, est nave of any cathedral in Great Britain. Today's anniversary com memorates the death of it's distin- guished bishop, William of Wyksham, in 1404, great architect, ecclesiastic and statesman, whose career is a beacon along 1ife's road. He rose from obscurity, and before his death appropriated his large possessions which he had acquired to endow two new colleges, New College Oxford, and Winchester College. Winchester is a town of great antiquity. Before the Roman invasion of Belhae, a Bri- tish tribe settled here. It was the seat of government of Alfred the Great, of Canute the Dane, and of William the Conqueror. The glorious cathedral dominates the town. The designer and builder of its nave was William of Wykeham, who introduced the Pointed arch which the Saracens had used for centuries. The transepts are the Norman variety of Romanes- que. Kings of England were buried here,-Ethelwolf, Egbert, Canute, William Rufus. Jane Austin, the nov elist was buried opposite the chantry and tomb of the celebrated William of Wykeham.

POTATOES MAY
 JOIN RANKS OF
 COSTLY FOODS
Large Crops Ruined by New Blight Which Rots Vege-
 tables in Storage.

Storrs. Conn. Sept. 23-The hum n-a potato threatens to add it's full quota to the woes of the "high cost of INing'' next winter and largely because If the unusual weather con ditious prevailing in Connecticut dur ing August and early September. The acreage was large and the yield promises to be generally good but the continued wet weather has brought on late blight to an extent not fully determined but known to be serious.
 Rot in storage is the element to be feared. according to N. F. Abeu of the department of agronomE at Con necticut Horticultural College at Storrs. On the theory that 1t is bet ter to allow blight-strUck potatoes to rot in the field than in the cellar. where each diseased potato affec.s healthy ones. Nr Abcu advises the growers not to dig potatoes until ten days or two weeks after the vines have died.
 If potatoes are dug at once" says Mir AbcU, "tha blight spores that have been washed down from the leaves and stems through the thin soil covering will attack the potatoes. IT aug tlL tLl45 tune I.'Aat -'''t7 '--s>~ -- to be healthy may he put in storage, but will develop blight when stor- ed. By leaving iu the ground ten days or two weeks these potatoes rot in the field and those not rottod or showing signs of rot are probably free from blight"
 AIr. Abeu advises thorough drying in open air of the potatoes before putting in storage but care should be taken to prevent sun scalding. The potatocs should be spread thin Iy in the cellar and not piled or sack ed. Culling of all potatoes showing any signs of blight should be at tended to before storing.
 There seems to be a tendency on inc part of some growers including even home gardeners, to sell their po- ratocs at once. MT. Abell points out that such a practice would cause a heavy drop in the market and would inevitably increase the price greatly next winter. after the crop had en- tfreIy left the hands of the growers. In other words the growers would be losing at both ends and the city con sinner would also be forced to pay more next winter.
 The most sensible program, 1t seems. is for Connecticut growers to retain as large a part of their own crop as they can save by precau- tions in digging, culling, drying and storing.
