October markets.
Farmers and market gardeners are
harvesting their autumn crops, and
the dweller fortunate enough to have
a cellar-or eve an attic, will do
well to take a leaf from the squirrels

husband or young son should be press
ed into service to construct good bins
and racks In the cellar, separated in
to compartments, where a bushel or
two of each of the late vegetables may

supplement to the canned products in
the fruit cellar. Root vegetables are
the STAPLES of the winter menus.

Birds Driven by Storms.

Certain instances of birds found
singly far to the north Of their usual
range are possibly to be explained by
the whirl of cyclonic storms. The
wind, turning counter clockwise, blows
off shore in the south and carries the
bird out to sea. But, sooner Oh later,
II the bird has the good fortune to
last out the experience, the farther
spin Of the storm tends to bring him
ashore again.

Buy your Pathephone now. Don't wait till it's too late. Get
them while the getting is good; don't wait till they get dear, buy
them while theyr cheap. The Pathephone is cheaper in price,

which ghdes over the record and does not wear the record out like
the steel. needles do, and it will play all makes of records. Prices of
Pathephones range from 500 to 1925. Cash or terms to your convent
ence. Come in and hear them, and be convinced. You will find that
the Pathe machine is the best.
