Vegetble marrows and pumpkins may also be stored this way, but do not keep as long as squash. Roots, such as parsnips, beets, ear rots, salsify, should not be washed when storing, but brushed with a soft brush if there is much dirt on them, They can be stored, if in small quant ities, in tightly closed earthern con tainers to keep out warm air. The temperature is best at 33 degrees (just above freezing.) Warm and moist air causes growth, and heat will shrivel the roots. Do not hang up cabbage unless the temperature is close to freezing, as moisture in the cabbage will either cause growth at the stem, and heat will dry the leaves. Danish Ball Head and Penn State Ball Head are the best winter storing varieties. All roots including turnips can be kept fresh and tender at temperatures just above freezing, HEALTH IMPORTANT TO WAR EFFORT The Bankruptcy Act IN THE MATTER OF THE BANK RUPTCY OF NELLIE V.

McCann, of Ot tawa, chairman of the Parliamentary Health Committee, speaking recently to an audience of women in Toronto. To win Dr. McCann declared, we must'be strong, morally, mentally and physically. “It is not enough to have the will to win nor to be financially Strong, or to have all the instruments Of war, unless we have men and wo men in good health to work on the home front", "Why were 12,000 men who offered their services to their country reject ed because thew were physically un fit, Dr. McCann asked. “Phobably with old heart or kidney lesions, the result of diphtheria or scarlet fever or measles, or ocular defects or stomach ulcers that either were pre ventable or could have been cured had early treatment been available.” * Dr. McCann urged that every Can adian soldier be immediately toxoided against diphtheria. He also advocated a serilogical test for syphilis, both on entering the ranks and on discharge. As for industrial workers, on the home front, he urged that their hours of work not be too long, their work ing conditions should be good, and their nutrition up to standard. Canada, has 50,000 idle workers on the industrial front every day of the year through sickness, he went on. Instead of 50,000 health workers in Canada there ought to be half a million of them, Dr. McCann declared. In conclusion Dr. McCann advocat ed a national health crusade, subsid izing of full-time health services, med ical care of the under-privileged, fed eral grants to aid provinces, and larg er grants to voluntary bodies engaged jn health work.

Many housewives who in the past years have purchased large quantities of imported vegetables during the winter months, will be storing home grown Ontario vegetables this fall from both patriotic and pocketbook motives. Here is some good advice on the Storing of Vegetables by George Rush, vegetable specialist, Ont Dept of Agriculture, 'Toronto. Onions must be kept in a dry at mosphere at a temperature from 40 to 45 degrees. They will remain firm if kept dry. Good winter keepers for cooking are Yellow Globe, pan ver, and Red Weatherfield. For eating raw the Spanish varieties, Riverside Sweet, Valencia, and Prizetaker are excellent. Squash are plentiful. For storage, they should be mature, having a hard shell, and like onions, kept in a dry place at a temperature of 45 degrees. Warted Hubbard, Green Hubbard or Slue Hubbard are gpo^k^epors. Small varieties ate excellent in flavor but do Xtqt keep so well.
