All neatly in a, row." • Doubtless the first log structures of the pioneer lacked tile convenience of a cellar. Hard enough was it to fell forest trees and fashion them into a habitable structure without having to excavate by shovelful the earth for storage space. Crudely fashioned shelves affixed to the pantry walls or under the creaking stairs leading to the cold quarters above were sufficient to hold the limited supplies of preserves and pickles from summer fruits and vegetables. When frame structures replaced their log ancestors, cellars were_hollowed. out by horse and scraper. The 16vallS were shaped by pick and shovel and a wheelbairow brought into the ,act. .The floor was levelled and left in its natural state. Field stones formed. the material for the walls. • • "Old cellars have a charm that's all their own. .,,,,„ Thick' sturdy walls of plastered, %%.bitecvashed stone." - There were two entrances to many of these ,cellars; one from the ground floor and one from the outside which was only itsed sparingly in the fall when the piOducts of the field, garden and orchard were brought in for storage. This•outside spot of entry was protected by a, cover set at an angle of some forty-five degrees whose door opened outwardly to re-veal stone steps leading to the dim depths. The cellar usually boasted a ' couple of narrow windows to permit ventilation and to remove the dank, moist air from the confined spice. Not too much light was admitted. , Well•stodked shelves on the outer walls displayed , ''rows'of canned fruit: berries that gleamed like jewels and jelly jars 'of lovely rainbow hues. Every shelf showed plenty of food for plain, good country eating. On the earthen floor were stone•jars where dill pickles foamed and vats of matured, kraut.

Here , and there from overhead sleepers hung cobs of special, corn to be popped, buttered and salted to the indMddal's taste. Beside them hung garden herbs freshly drying, dried onions for a hearty winter stew , and smoked hams. Those well-gtocked shelves and bins displayed -the farm's rich 'opulence.
