ANSTAP,ITANEOUS RELIEF
- Dysentery is one of the worst forme
t„ if bowel complaint. It comes on sud-
- denly, and the pains in the bowels bes
some intense; the discharges Occur with
- great /rapidity, and are eery often
rompanied by blood.
Dysentery does not ueed to persist
for any length of time until. the whole
system becomes weakened and
debili-
ated, and hardly any other disease se
quickly undermines the strength and
brings about a condition of prostration
-, and 'utter collapse that often termin-
ates fatally.
Mr. Robert Woodall, E.-arnleops, B. C.,
writes:—"I was sorely troubled with
that terrible scourge, dysentery, for the
last twelve months owing to the after
e: effects of ptomaine poisoning. I had
, absolutely DO 0011trei over my bowels,
and after trying several doctors' rerne-
:,., 'dies I was induced to take Dr. Fowler's
- Ext. of Wild Strawberry. After doing
so I got immediate and complete relief,"

Use the Blower.
Before entering the silo it Is advis-
able to start up the blower of the cut-
ting box. In a silo which has been
long empty the smothering carbon
dioxide gas .may be formed, and the
fresh silage in one partly filled may
produce a poisonous gas. If there is
no eircrilation of air one of thein may
be present in considerable volume.
Air currents stirred up by the blower
dilute the gases sufficiently to drive
them from the silo. '

-STORING,THE ROOT CROPS FOR
WINTER.
One of the most important prob-
lems now facing the home gardener
is hew best to' store• the crops that
were grown- specially for -winter and
early spring use. Generally speak-
ing, all root crops can be safely stered
in a frost -proof cellar, and will, if
properly cared for, keep hi first-clAss
condition until spring.- A temperature
a few degrees Abriere the freezing point
is ideal, but in the majority of home
cellars such a low point is not easily
maintained. The result is -that unless
some varieties of roots are net covered
with soil to exelude the warmer air,
and so keep them from shriveling,
they betome useless in a comparative-
ly short time.
When putting away potatoes, we use
boxes that, hold fr,orn one to two bush-
; els. In receptacles of this size the
tubers are readily overhauled from
time to time, for if one potato goes
bad those surrounding it are very soon
affected also; hence the necessity for
going over them occasionally. The
coolest part of the cellar must be ,re-
! served for them, and light must be
' excluded, otherwise the tubers will be-
come green and the flavor thereby be
' greatly impaired.' Of course this can
I be obviated by covering the boxes
1 with sacks oe, other material to ex-
' elude all light.
LOOK OUT FOR VENTILATION.
If the cellar has e dirt floor the
majority of the root crops will ap-
preciate the small quantity of mois-
ture that will always be present, pro-
vided the furnace is at such a distance
that the temperature will never be
unduly high. In the latter case it
will be well to erect a partition, thus
providing a sepheate rem for the
vegetables, and as far removed from
the furnace as possible. The parti-
tion need not be made of expensive
material, but a separate storage room.
is absolutely necessary if vegetables
are to be kept in first-class condition
for any length of time.
Ventilation is of the greatest im-
portaner4 The storage room should
be provided with at least one window;
if there are two, so Much better.
During all mild weather the windows
should be left partly open, but safely
screened 'with wire to keep out ver-
min. Then they must be shaded with'
burlap or sacking to exclude light.
While potatoes should be thoroughly
dry before stering, such root crops as
beets, carrots,' turnips, parsnips, eel-
sify and winter radishes reqiure more
moisture; thei-efore, they should be
packed in soil or sand. - With the ex-
ception of potatoes the other roots.
-might be, better stored in an outshel,
where conditions will more readlitY
lend thernselVes to -using' soil in which
to pack them, and where the temper-
ature will be lower. But this may
not _be safe in localities, where the
temperature goes down to zero. , How-
eVer, if the heaps are well covered
with straw and soil and they are not
opened ana exposed while the temper-
ature is very low, a little frost pene-
trating the heap will do little if any
damage and, taking advantage of
favorable weather, a sufficient quan-
tity of each may be brought to the
home cellar from time.to time. Before
storing, the tops must be cut off, but
be careful not to cut into the roots;
it is well to leave a tiny bit of -the
stem's on the roots, as it will prevent'

CELERY's SPECIAL NEEDS.
Celery requires special attention in
storing if we are to have it in prime
condition throughout winter and into
spring. Select a sheltered position
for the trench, which is dug eighteen
inches wide and deep. Loosen the
bottom 'of the trench, or spread a
little el the fine top soil over it to
encourage and take care of the roots.
MoiCten the bottom of the trench pre-
vious to storing the plants. The plants
should be lifted and Put away in dry
weather, for, if the tops are wet when
packed, decay and rot will surely fol-
low. When lifting the celery plants
try to keep as much soil as possible on
the roots,„and if they are very dry it
will be well to apply more water to
the bottern of the trench; and also dip
the roots in water, taking care that
the leaves and stalks are kept quite
dry.' Set the plants in rows fairly
close together, drawing soil well over
the roots as each row is,. completed.
.The soil between the rows, well firm-
ed, will allow a little air, space be-
tween the plants, and prevent heating.
When the planta are all in 'the,
trench, the roots properly covered with
soil and made firm, the sides are -
banked up with more soil until it is
Jevel with the extreme tops of thel
leaves, It is now of the greatest
im-
portance that the tops should not be
subjected to rain, or at least that
portion of the trench intended for win-
ter and spring use. Yet, if the wea-
ther is mild, there is no necessity to
'cover the plants unless there be dan-
ger of rainstorms. However:, as a
wooden roof is necessary later, it may
be prepared now, Op the approach of
severe Trost the celery is covered with
a thick layer of' dry leaves and the
leaves covered with two twelve -inch -
wide boards, these being jeined to
form an inverted V, and so '‚shed the
Water.
Pumpkins and winter squashes
should have a temperature of at le tet

They are peeked in 'stone crocks,

the cool cellar. When preparing, the
fruit for use they are soaked in fresh
cold water overnight, then peeled and

tomatoes are perfectly sound When
stored they will keep in fine condition
for fully four months.

Fertilizing Effect of Rain
and Snow:
'The remark is often made,, more

partly explained in the report of the

ist points out that the chief,' function
Of rain is the bringing into solution
of the plant food in the soil, tirtis
making it available for absorption by
the plant rootlets. But it is also true,
he continues, that rain and snow con-
tribute a notable, though "not a large
part of their nitrogen compounds to
the life ancegrowth of the plants, It
is found that the quentity of nitrogen
compounds present in rain and silo*
varies from season to season, and alsol
according to the locality in which the
rain falls. The condition of the at-
niosphere at the,time of precipitation
in respect to smoke, etc., markedly
affects the nitrogen content, for it is
by the washing, filtering, cleansing
action of the rain and snow that they
derive their fertilizing value:- Heavy
bush fires are credited with greatly
increasing the nitrogen per ton in the
rain, while samples of rain water -col-
lected from large industrial centres
are shown to contain a greater rich-
ness of fertilizing value than rain or
snow collected in the open. country.
The report shows that the rain and
snow fall in the Ottawa district dur-
ing twelve months supplied to 'the
soil on which it fell at the rate of
about seven and a half pounds of
nitrogen "to the acre.

It is with all these object's in view
that it has become a emit of custom
with us here on Francisco Farm to
stick up a few horses; carrell some of
the cattle and sonietimes dress up a
lot of hogs to take to the county fair.
We- only have a few miles to go so
it makes it easy to move over the
first week and back Saturday night.
The whole week is given over entirely
to the fair and the whole force thinks
of little else.
We pitch a tent in a convenient
place, arrange a comfortable bed, take
along a chest full- of tools and equip-
ment, and some grain for the stock,—
the fair company furnishes hay and
bedding,—and camp out for the week.
It is a hard life, of course'but like
other sorts of camp outfits, is not
without its enjoyable features.
Much of the week previous is often
given over to preparation for the
event. There may be feet to trim,
horns to scrape and polish, halters to
make,.and calves and colts to break to
lead. It eaves lots of uneasiness and
worry 'during the first days of the
fair, on the part of the cattle, if they
