Keep Fruits and Vegetables Fresh
A storage room for keeping fruits and vegetables may be built of
concrete without using scarce materials needed for the war effort.
By W. G. KAISER
Agricultural Engineer
Convenient facilities for storing
i! and preserving fruits and vegetables
1 | insure against spoilage and waste
of essential foods needed to help win
. j the war.
Satisfactory low-cost storage can
> I he provided in most basements by
i | building a small room in the corner,
under a porch or In other suitable
location. The walls are built of
lightweight concrete masonry units
> and the ceiling is insulated with
insulating board. An outside base
ment window can be used to provide
ventilation by placing an air duct
in the lower half to conduct air to
the floor and placing louvers in the
top half of the window to serve as
an air exhaust. The door leading
I I into the storage room should fit
tightly. Vegetables may be placed
1 in crates or on shelves.
Outside underground storages
; | located near the house or barn are
. j also used for storing fruits and
vegetables. They are built about
half below the ground level and half
i above. The soil is piled on top to
a depth of about 2 ft. An economical

type of construction is a concrete
arched roof. No reinforcing steel
is required. A width of 10 ft. and
a center height of 8 ft. are satisfac
tory.
The excavation may l>e made and
inside forms built, or the soil in the
center may be shaped and covered
with waterproof building paper.
Concrete is then placed on th;
earth form. Earth is removed after
14 days and placed on top of the
structure. Newly placed concrci;
should be protected from drying out
for at least 7 days. It may be cov
ered with a thin layer of soil or
straw and this material kept wet
for the required time. Use a con-
Crete mix of 1 part Portland cement
to 2% parts sand to 3 parts gravel
or crushed stone. Use not more
than 5 gal. of water per sack of
cement for average damp sand.
It is common practice to build I
a concrete floor in the center of the
underground storage about 3 ft. 6 in.
wide. Bins are built above the earth
on either side to allow ventilation
underneath. A ventilator is placed :
in the roof near the rear. Eight-inch
concrete pipe serve as the ventilator
flue.

The Natural Side Dresser
Over 500,000 tons of Chilean Soda have been brought
in for this year’s crops. More is expected in time for side
dressing, but there are distribution complications. The
War Production Board and the War Food Administra
tion control distribution of all nitrogen supplies under
an allocation program. Principally, this program takes
into account three things: (1) total supply of nitrogen
products; (2) their respective locations and capacities;
(3) crop requirements. So, if Chilean Soda happens to
be scarce in your section, it is a war-time dislocation, a
temporary scarcity, .>
If you haven't been able to get the Chilean Soda
you need for top dressing and side dressing. ■
don't blame your fertilizer man. Put the blame
where it belongs ... on Hitler and Hirohito.
A vast supply of natural soda is right where nature put it
—in Chile. Large quantities are ready for shipment.
Every possible ton of this vital material is being brought
here in time for this year’s crops.
