Hints on Harvesting Root Crops.
Root crops should be takenup be-
fore the weather becomes too wet and
disagreeable in the fall if in any
quantity. It is slow work at any
time and becomes much more so un-
der cold damp conditions. Lift the
roots with a digging fork and twist
off the tops, putting them in piles
and covering with the tops. If a
large area is to be lifted, and one' is
expert with a sharp hoe, he can very
quickly remove the tops, but they
will not keep quite as well. The
roots should be ploughed out, throw-
ing them as Much as possible on the
top. Bins with slatted.- sides and
bottom should be used for storage
where possible, as this gives the
roots a chance to sweat. If the stor-
age room temperature is above 40F.
cover'.them with sand. Carrots should
not be deeper than two feet in a bin,
others may be four feet. Where cel-
lar storage is not available use pits:
These should be three feet wide, two
or three feet high and of any length.
Run the pits north and south where
possible, and have them on well -
drained ground. Put a layer of straw
on the ground and cover first with
straw -6 inches deep then 6 inches
earth, and as the frost gets harder
cover with fresh strawy manure.
Have ventilators every 15 or 20 feet,
as all roots sweat in storage. These
may be filled with straw during cold
periods.
All roots should bo as free from
dirt as possible when put in storage.
It is often advisable to leave a few
days in small piles so that at the
second lifting any adhering will be
removed.—A. H. MacLennan, B.S.A.,
Ontario Vegetable Specialist.
Cereal Grains for ]read -Viking.
On this continent and in Europe
we use wheat in much .larger quan-
tities than any other grain. This is
because the flour made trom wheat
contains the constituents necessary
to form gluten. Rye contains a 'simi-
lar substance to a lesser. extent, while
the other •grains' do not have any of
this material. Gluten is a tough,
elastic, tenacious substa.nce, capable
of considerable expansion. Cense-
quently, when the gas liberated
through the action.of yeast seeks to
make its way out of wheat flour;
dough the gluten expands, retaining
the gas and causes the dough to risd.
When the bread is baked the gluten
is "set" or coagulated; and this ac-
counts for the`light porous structure
of` wheat bread. When surrounded
by a.proper crust the moisture.,is re-
tained and the bread may be ,kept -
for several days and still be an at-
tractive article of food. Rice, oats,
corn and barley cannot be used alone
to prepare bread of this type. They
cannot be expanded by - means of
yeast "for their„is no cohesion in 'the
mass. They may be used in making
biscuits and cakes or quick breads,
which breaks easily, dries out read-
ily, cannot be safely' transported, and
must -be consumed within a few hours
after being prepared.
On the -other hand, there is com-
paratively little, difference in the
composition of the various cereal
grains and, consequently, one wilt°
furnish about
as much digestibio nu-
trients as..anotiier. If, then, in a time
of wheat shortage like the present,
we• substitute some of the flour of
corn, oats, barley, buckwheat, etc.,
for wheat dour in making bread, we
do not decrease its nutritive value.
We do dilute the , glutenand thus
limit the `power -of. expansion of the
'dough and we make the bread dark-
er,' but we have retained the desir
able features 01 bread Silkiness. o°
texture and whiteness' of crumb were
counted ,points of excellence, in the
bread of the ofd .high patent flour,
but undets the present ,conditions of
longer extraction of the wheat, grain,
andsthe-int
' roduction of, substitutes,;,
it is wrong for the consumer to place
a high valuation on :these, points`:
