GUILD A SWEET POTATO STORAGE HOUSE .""T* PH ffl ■ 1i [ ii o I Iff [ I f r -I li 1 1k... i, 1, I—iMJJ — u Elaox Elaja n A potato storage house holding from 2,500 to 3,000 bushels. Build a sweet, potato storage house of wood, as it is drier than brick, stone or concrete. It is easier to op erate in regulating temperature. Never use a "dug out," as it is very expen sive and cannot be kept dry. The house should he placed 12 to 15 inches above ground, so that the air will cir culate freely beneath it. A 2#xlo foot house, 9 feet high at the eaves will hold 2,500 to 3,000 bushels. These potatoes may be placed in the house in bins or in some other manner. A plan that has proven very successful in many storage houses has been to use bushel boxes for storing the pota toes, These boxes may be taken di rectly to the field at harvesting, tilled, carried to the house and pi'.od in blocks of 500 bushels. Then, there is no reason to rehandle the potatoes t until they are ready for market or tho market Is ready for them. A house 20x+0 feet Is built as fol lows: Build three rows of pillars, two under sides and one under renter of house. Let these pillars he at least 12 inches above the ground. Use 6xß or Bxß sill on top of pillars. On top of sill place 2xß or 2xlo sleepers 24 inches apart. On the sleopers a floor jof ship lap or matched boards is laid, I then a layer building paper and on that matched flooring. The walls are built by placing 2x4 studding 24 inches apart. On the outside put a jlayer of ship lap, on it a layer of building paper, and on the outside a layer of weatherhoarding. On inside put two layers of ship lap and between them a layer of building paper. Al- Uo-w the inside wall to cover both stud ding and rafters, thus running to top of house. In south Georgia the weath erboarding will be sufficient for out side wall. The sides should be well tied together to prevent spreading. ,Usc 2x4 every four feet over bin par •ions for this purppse.

Warwick castle Is said to have been built by the Saxons before the first William landed nu Albion’s shores. One of its old towers has seen a thousand summers come and go. while the other portions of the structure belong to the fifteenth and the sixteenth centuries.

The ait space is as good an insulator as saw dust and keeps out moisture if the plans given are followed. Thorough ventilation is necessary Put a window every ten feet. In house 20x40 feet put ventilator S inches square in each comer and on each side of stove. Also 2 ventilators are placed in top of building. Doors should be tight fitting and similar to an ice door. Windows should he of the same kind and open outward. Make doors and windows so that they can be well padded. Ven tilator in roof should extend above ceiling to carry out warm air. All ventilators should he provided with tight-fitting covers. Provide cover for venilators on top of house to keep out rain. The bins shown here are 4 feet wide by 7 1/2 feet long. Sides and bottoms made of Ix 4 slats. They are placed 6 Inches from inner wall and 4 inches above floor. This facilitates circulation round and under bins. Some store the potatoes in house in crates thus eliminating the bins. But when stored in crates the potatoes must have the same ventlation as when stored in bins. In the middle of house a stove la placed. A fire la started when the workmen begin storing the potatoes and the house is kept at a tempera ture of 80 to 100 degrees until pota toes are cured. This is about ten days. Let hot moisture laden air out through ventilators. After curing pe riod is over, gradually lower the tem perature to 55 degrees during remain der of storing period.

SOY BEANS GOOD AS A GREEN VEGETABLE Haberlandt and Habto Are Best Varieties The soy bean has been grown In this country for some years both as a hay plant and as a grain plant for live stock, hut It has not been used to any great extent for human con sumption. The reason for this is probably the difficulty in cooking the mature beans. Tliis quality, however, does not hold when the beans are used green. When used as a green vegetable, it is prepared and used very much like the green garden pea. Almost any varieties of soy beans may be used for this purpose. A few of the varieties, however, give espe cial promise. Of the earlier sorts, the Haberlandt is probably one of the best. It usualy yields at the rate of about 10 or 12 bushels of mature seed to the acre. The Edwarda, a later bean, is desirable because of its size. Everything considered, prob abaly a recent importation known as the Habto bean is one of the best. This is a flat bean much larger than any other soy bean that is util ized in this country at the present time. The size of this bean makes it much easier to handle. Then, too, the flavor is of the best. On account of the large size of this bean, it will have to bo planted rather thickly. A considerable quantity of these beans have been sent out to county agents during the year, and those interest ed should try to secure a small quan tity of seed, if no other variety is available, the Mammoth Yellow should be used. This Is the standard van ety in the state and may be procur ed In almost any locality. OIL IN SOY BEANS, If soy beans were sold on oil con tent there would he a wide difference in the prices between different varie ties Work in the laboratories of the Georgia State College of Agriculture show that the pounds of oil per too varies as follows: Haberlandt, 43$ pounds; Tokio, 422; Wilson, 369, Mammoth Yellow. 357; Edward, 334; ami Ottoman. 306. Thus, there u a difference of 130 pounds of oil per ton between the Haberlandt and the Ot toman. mi IS PRECIOUS OPPORTUNITYSLIPPING AWAY Much Needed Health Work About To Cease When it comes to health work and especially pr vention of disease, and that disease the most prevalent of all, and one fr< ght with as much danger as any that we know of, it should not be allowed to lag The United States Public Health Service has been waging warfare against Venereal Diseases for the past year. The federal government lias paid al! the bills and a great deal of good has been accomplished. This work has been done in conjunction with State Board of Health. Thous ands of dollars have been spent in treating infected persons, over a thous and prostitutes have been in quaran tine and been treated. Over 8,000 doses of Arspheanmine have been ad ministered for Syphilis by men under direction of the State Board of Health. Eighty thousand men have been lec tured to about these diseases. Many pamphlets have been sent out, all rail road toilets and coaches have had notices put up in them, hundreds of thousands of people have read about Venereal Diseases through the educa tlonal work of your State Board of Health. This is about to all cease because of the State not making appropriation for it to continue. Under the Act of Congress, known as the Chamberlain-Kahn Act, the fed eral government will not continue to pay the entire bill, but offers to put up dollar for dollar with the State. This looks fair, looks reasonable, looks right and just. It is now up to the present legislature to make this ap propriation. A resolution introduced by Hon. John Bale, of Floyd, makes possible the work. Our readers are Interested in this measure because it touches almost every home, directly or indirectly. If you are interested in the eradication of this evil you must be in favor of this bill of Mr. Bale’s.

In many ways the Finns are a very queer people. It is during the terrible cold months that the Finns revel in the mighty ovens that fill one corner of every kitchen and often loom up large and vastly impressive in the oth er rooms of a Finn home as well. The tops of these monster stoves are per fectly flat, and steps lead up on one side. When the weather becomes bit terly cold and bleak, the entire Finnish family will lake quilts and pillows and, mounting to the top of the big heat er, spread down llieir bedding and sleep very crtthfrtrtably and contented ly on the hard hot bricks until morn ing.—Novta O.

An odd reminder, says the Independ ent, of the days when phrenology was popular as a means of “reading char acter,” with a sly dig at the tendency of Us professors to give complimentary explanations of the “bumps,” is fou.id in a letter from Elizabeth Barrett Browning advertised for saio in a Lon don Bookseller’s catalogue.

STOMACH TROUBLE Mr. Marion Holcomb, of Nancy, Ky., says: “For quite a long while I suffered with stomach trouble. 1 would have pains and a heavy feeling after my meals, a most disagreeable taste in my mouth. .If I ate anything with butter, oil or grease, 1 would spit it up. 1 began to have regular sick headache. I had used pills and tablets, but after a course of these, I would be constipated. It just seemed to tear my stomach all up. I found they were no good at all for my trouble. I heard THEDFORD’S Buck-Draught recommended very highly, o began to use it. It cured me. 1 keep it in the house all the time. It is the best liver medicine made.
