INDORSES VICTORY LOAN The United Fanners of Ontario are in full support o£the Victory Loan as witness the folloiving letter issued by Secretary J. J. Morrison addressed to the Farmers of Ontario. Toronto, Ont„ Oct., 25, 1919, To the farmers of Ontario: The Victory Loan 1919 is of vital in- wetest to the fanners of Ontario. This 'will be readily recognized when it is realized that of the total proceeds of :the 1918 loan over $2000,000,000, or 34% of the loan was advanced to Great Britain and her allies for the purch- ase of Canadian wheat and other food- stuffs. If the farmers of the country are to receiee good prices with a ready mar- ket for their products it is all impor- ant that there should be an oversub- scription, Then in addition there is the fact that the loan affords a good investment—almost timetle the rate of interest obtainable at any of the banks on deposits, with the whole of Canada as security. I would like to commend the loan in tete strongest possible way to the far- mers of Ontario, and hope from the rural districts a large volume of sub- scriptions will be forthcoming.

The purpose or this article Is to describe in a few words a type of ice -house which will give good satisfaction, The lee -house does not necessarily ' have to be expensive, but certain con- ditions in regard to it must obtain If the ice Is to keep well. These 1 shell entphasie first and they are,— 'trnrection of ice from sun's rays, this is the wall, good drainage from the I'nIFnm of the house, either natural or artificial, free circulation of air •brongh the top, air -tight foundation, elenty of good quality of dry sawdust en all sides ot the mass of ice, and 'Jesse packing of the ice. If these conditions can be secured in a rough bin built under a shed, or a lean-to on the abady side of a building, all well and good unless one has other good reasons for building a more ea - pensive structure elsewhere. The matter of convenience is often a de- ciding factor in this ease, and the type of ice -house I ass about to de- scribe is a good iUustratlon of this /(tet, Ontr once have I seen it In use, taut there to no reason why It mold not be used unite generally, This particular type consists of a teen -to streeetnre of wood at one rad of the buss which ha* tits stable uwbrnep b, The arse waitld vary with the amount of tee required, but Rrababty q bei/ding 15 feet square end 12 teat high • would be large omelet. for meet farmers' seeds. in this sbrset*re fad at the aide- *dis- own to the barn, or rather the base. meet Ina, is bunt a eneerete each'- estre-sbont $•fest sgaeaw Aad $ or e•V.e feet high. A door rn the basement wall admits ane to tt. In the side opposite to the doorway. there Is a row of 3 or 4 -tach ttle near the bot-. tom for istifah in the cold air from the ice which is packed closely to the concrete storage on ail three stdee and over the top as well. Between the top of the storage and the barn there is a narrow passage -way or flee for allowing the foul or used air to get oat, lienee good circulation In the storage is'provided for. In this par- ticular ease the farmer has his milk - room containing cream separator, etc., adjoining this storage and when- ever he wishes to cool milk or cream or store it he puts it in this storage. Other articles, such as • butter and meat, are also stored at tines but of cotLrse only for a few days at a time. • Hence much handl- ing of ice Is saved as well as con- siderable time. The building is•made of woad, the studding being boarded on both sides. It would be advisable t.o fill the space between the two .boardings with planer shavings or good quality sawdust. The roof is covered with shingles. The gables are left somewhat open for ventila- tion. Plenty of sawdust is used around the ice next to the walls, and also a good depth over use top, none however is used between the capes of ice. If a few cakes of ice are re- quired for household 'use they may be easily taken out of the se.wdust in the top of ice -house or at one side it more convenient. It will be seen, therefore, that this type of ice -house does double duty in a degree, namely, 1 providing Y. p d ng a small ice-cold storage room, cooled by the Me mass directly, In. addition to hous- ing ice for varfo.us lneidental uses In the annttner-tithe, ,In a case of this kind there would not be much .need for taking out'ide except for supply- ing the heesehold refrigerator as the storage'room 'would:• take care of the ordtitary eooliug • end preserving of products. .

White Rolnatt •Hyartatbs are very satisfactory for early flowering.. The catered Roman Hyacinths are not as good, and do not flower an early as the White Romans. The loose grow- ing, richly perfumed flowers of tiro. White Romans are very pretty and acceptable. Finer er' White -Navels- sus can also be had in flower early. French grown bulbs of the Trumpet Major Narcissus can also he had in flower in the window before Christ- mas by potting the bulbs toward the end of September, or not later than the end of October. All of these bulbs can usually be had early in October at seed stores. Pot the bulbs In rath- er sandy 'potting soil as soon as the bulbs can be obtained. The soil should not be too rich in •fertilizers. Three or four bulbs can be put in a five-inch.pot. The top of the bulbs should be just under the•surfaee of the soil when potted, The surface of the soil should be about half an inch below the top of the pot for water space. Water the bulbs well as soon as potted and set the pots away in a cool, dark place in a dark cellar or cupboard until roots have well start- ed, usually for about four or five week6, When roots are well started; and possibly showing through the hole in the bottom of the flower pot, they should be brought into the win- dow to flower. Beep the soil well motet, not too wet, until they are through flowering. Dutch 13yacintha and many other varieties of Narcis- sus (Daffodils), Tulips and Freesias can be potted in October or Novem- ber, but few of them will flower until .Tanuary or February, Chinese Sacred Lilies. Bulbs of these can be started in deep saucers or soup plates in Octo- ber for early flowering. Set the bulbs firmly in the saucer and then 1111 the saucer or disk with fine graver' stones, so as to almost cover the bulbs. Pill the saucer up with water and sot them away in a dark, cool place, as mentioned before, for about three weeks, until roots 1 ave well started, when they mu be brought in- to the window to flower. These will flower in December. peep the sau- cers filled up with water as required. Callas, 1piphyllum or Xmas Cac- tus; Cyclamen, Primulas, several .varieties of Begonia, especially the Glome .de Lorraine type of Begonias, are suitable for Christmas, as well as the dwarf Semperflorens type of 't• gonia that flower so profusely either in the window in. winter or out of doors In the summer. Late Dowering dhrysanthemuths are also good for early winter decoration. All of these last mimed plants have to be grown azpressly for the window or purehas- ed from a Outlet.
