Cover ground with layer of straw; and place vegetables in conical heap of any desired length. Cover with twelve to eighteen inches of straw. On the layer of straw, as the weather gets colder, place a layer of soil four to six inches in depth. If some straw is left protruding at the top of the pile at first, it will provide for the passing off of any heat which may be generated when the vegetables are first covered.

The fields are plow- ed and ready to receive the greatest "possible benefit from the action of the winter's frosts. It will not be long Ibefore all vegetation will be dormant again and once more we will be in the grip of the Canadian winter. The winter: season brings considerable re- laxation for the farmers but yet the wide-awake and up-to-date ones will find something more than the chores to do. They will be planning for the next year's business and; -as Ontario is extensively engaged in the dairy industry, many of them will harvest and store a quantity of ice to be used next summer for cooling the milk and cream. As jce is harvested early in the years the ice crop may be justly _| called the first crop of the year. PREPARE NOW FOR THE WINTER'S: CROP. It is now none too soon to make preparations for this winter harvest of the ice crop, so says Professor R. R. Graham, of Physics, On- tario Agricultural College. Some may be for the first time planning to har- vest some ice this winter and they will in all probability need to construct some sort of building or bin im which to store it. Those who have regularly 'stored 'fee 'may' hive to muke some altérations or repairs to the old ice storage; In any case it is a good pol- icy to make the necessary prepara. tions early and so-have everything in readiness when the time comes to cut and store the crop. HOW TO BUILD THE ICE HOUSE. The storage for the ice need not be an elaborate and costly one. Ice can bo -kept- successfully in. various sorts of storages: --a large bin made of single boards nailed on ordinary stud- ding or cedar posts and located inside some other building, as a shed barn; or outstds as a simple lean-to on the shady side of a large building; part of a hay-mow; an old silo; or a more costly and attractive building usually called the ice house or cold storage building. y SUCCESS DEPENDS UPON TEN CON- DITIONS, The style of icé storage really does not count provided the following con- ditions are fulfilled: 1. That the ice be cut from a body of clean water and free from weeds @ and sediment. 2. The cakes should be cut regular- ly and all of a size. The ice should be at least 12 inches: thick. 8.

Of course, there is a limit to the the individual cow as well as cows In general, and of feeds. For example, a highly specialized take, converts everything over and above the maintenance ration into milk. Unfortunately, all cows are not good dairy cows. Some make all the productive ration into milk for a few monthy after coming fresh and then start putting on weight. Others do { this within a few weeks after coming fresh. Generally speaking, one cannot afford to give a dairy cow all she will eat if she is gaining weight. There are times, however, when it is best to make exception to this rule. For in- | stance, some cows in the early part of | the lactation period lose in weight-- that is, they produce milk at the ex | pense of their flesh, Toward the end | of the milking period they regain the «weight they have lost. Such cows can be fed liberally for they will turn that ; extra feed into milk again the next je they are fresh. | guide the less experienced: I 1. Feed all the roughage a cow will eat up clean, adjusting the grain ra- tion to the milk production.

Probably one of the greatest en- { emies to the life of machinery is rust, { which often attacks machinery as safely housed as {s the farmer him- self. One method of prevention is to coat the articles with a rust-repelling mixture. A rust-proof paint which is said to resist all atmospheric changes, even that in a salt-water locality, is com- posed of five pounds of tallow and one pound turpentine melted together, Melt separately eighteen ounces of sulphur, five and one-third ounces of caustic potash, and one ounce of cop- per filings. Mix this with the tallow and turpentine while hot, and apply with a brush the same as paint. Our Day.
