These structures should he located immediately over the feed room, each bin having a chute with a oontrolling slide, or a canvas distributor to con- vey the grain to the hopper or the grinder; or, 11' the grain is intended for market, to a sack placed on the scales below the chute ready to re- ceive it. To facilitate emptying the grain, the Door of the bins should be sloping, Be yore the Stl'nchu'o Das Sufficient Strength. Vlio important consideration, In the construction of granaries and bins for loose grain is to be sure that the structure is designed with sufficient strength to pretreat bulg'- ing of the sides and springing of the floor; for grain, owide to its enor- mous outward thrust, corresponding somewhat to that of water, has a tendency to burst the sides unless well braced of supported. Timber construction requires frequent re- pairs to prevent decay and general depreciation from use. It Is always liable to climatic conditions, The boards will crack and shrink 111 111e summer when the niers may •be enlply, and when the new grain is dumped into the hies an euormons quantity promptly disappears 5rs i.li.a the cracks and crevices and through slice holes, entalling considerable loss to the farmer, to the eennn neer and to the nation. 'Thousands or bushels or grain are, In this way, an- nually lost to the producers through sheer indifference to the condition at the granary. Yet this profitable waste may he, easily remedied and macre secure by lining the bins with sheet metal. Good Concrete ianln'oves 'With Ago. While there is an annual depre- ciation on a timber structure varying from four to eight per ciao., concrete construction grows better as it grows old; hence eimereLo properly re- inforeedt, Is the ideal material for granaries, because it Is both damp- proof and rat -proof, two very essen- tial factors in the construction of granaries.

Under average, present day, eon- ditlons a reinforced concrete gran- ary may represent an additional out- lay of about 25 per cent. over that required to construct of timber, hut the high efficiency distinctive or con- crete quickly offsets this increased initial cost, Concrete construction has ninny, in short, important. advan- tages. The contents are sate from the depredations of rodents, is damp- proof, requires neither paint nor re- pairs, Is fireproof, the grain is Per- fectly preserved under all conditions of climate and temperature, and the resulting structure is praetleally everlasting.—John Evans, U, A. Col- lege, Guelnit, Roguing Potatoes. The average yield of potatoes per acre in the 'Province of Ontario for the past tihirty-six years has been about one hundred and fil',oen bushels. The yields vary greatly. Ill 101.7 there were variations in On- tario from twonty-five or less up to seven hundred bitslsels per acre. People are realizing more and more that for high yields of potatoes con- ditions must be (51010ble, It is im- portant to have goo(' fertile soil well cultivated and to plant a liberal supply of seed of the hest vatrietles at the proper time. Seed potatoes somewhat immature which have been produced in al 0001 climate, and which are comparatively free from disease, aro apt to furnish t 1 seed of high quality, Even under these con- ditions it is well to carefully inspect the seed before punting unci to thor- oughly rogue the growing crop. A potato field is :weed by re- moving the undesirable plants. A thorough roguing of the growing crop once or twice during the sum- mer Is one of the most effectual ways In ridding the field of a number of the potato diseases. This operation would also insure the immediate re- moval of the weak and unthrifty plants which are sure to produce un- desirable seed. Potato growers sonxe- ttmes go through their fields and re- , move all plants which are not true to type. When roguing is [lone with a double objeet of eradicating dis- eases and of purifyhtg the variety deckled advantages are sure tool - low, 'Thorough roguing is one of the hest methods of securing pure, healthy seed of: high quality.
