As was expected, they proved to he of no value tor commercial storage of such long duration. It was found that practically all the berries fell off the stems as soon as they were handled, and this alone makes them worthless for commer- cial purposes. The Black Rogers gave perhaps slightly 'better results than any of the other varieties inasmuch as there was practically no noticeable srrinkage or withering of the fruit. Spoiled berries were almost nil and the total loss in weight through shrinkage, etc., was only 8 per cent. Since these grapes were not sold by weight this loss in weight, which was largely stem withering, had very lit- tle influence and the total loss in weight ot this variety was, from a commercial standpoint, negligible. Very little difference was found in the keeping qualities of the three red varieties. The total waste from fouldy and other spoiled berries was not more than 1 per cent to 11/24 per cent. while the shrinkage from evaporation was practically the same as with the 8le Rogers. In the case of stem mould it was noticeable that the fleshy stem of the Agawam was slightly more susceptible than any of the other. while the Lindleys were almost immune from this fault. Taking all varieties into considerac tion the loss from this cause was so small that it might he 'overlooked as a cause of serious waste, except in a very late season when the grap‘es have to, be picked before properly matured. .'

This allows a Pa.xynur11 of ventilation to reach the fruit, and the mould waste is reduced to' a minimum. The flat has the add ed advantage inasmuch as it can .be piled ceiling high without any of the weight coming on the fruit irf the lower tiers. This is an important consideration in the cost ot storage, since all packages cannot be -pi1ed in this manner. Each flat holds about three six quart baskets,' and the work of handling when putting in and taking out of storage can be conveniently and quickly done. The results obtained with these flats were such as to lead us to strongly recommend them for long time com- mercia1 grape storage. The loss with this package was very light and the cost of packing and handling was the Itiwest of any of the three pack- It cannot be recommended that growers attempt the storage of grapes tor Christmas sale on any- thing but a conservative basis at first. with a view to increasing the trade season after season as the con- sumng pulblic becomes educated to the use of them in place of the ex- pensive imported varieties.

Remember that the continued use of face powder tends to produce en- larged pores, because they clog the pores (which are the mouths of tiny skin glands) and lead these glands to over-secretion in the effort to get rid ot the clogging.

They believed her to be a witch and burnt her at the stake. The 1a.t word she uttered, was "Jesus". Then the smoke and frames stopped her voice. Even her foes shed tears when they saw her die. Her death aroused French patriotism and soon the Eng- lish were beaten. William Wallace was a Lanark- shire gentleman. He was the son of a knight and a landed gentle- man. He was of gigantic stature. He was by birth and education, of the upper classes. He as very brave and strong and loved his coun- try beter than his life. . ' His first battle was at Stirling. He was so successful that Edward 111., King of England made sure never to save him 'because this victory had in flicted a blow on the pride of Eng- land that such a soldier as Edward could not easily forget. The English again met Wallace in battle at. Fal- Kirk'. Wallace was defeated and was forced to flee from the battlefield. He was betrayed later b yone of his triendstand condemned to death. . His legs and arms were distribut- woods. However, I was . still left alone. After a long time, I grew very tall. I could see around the country. I was near a road. One day) three men came along with a team and a sleigh. Instead of passing by as I hoped they would, they came over to me. My neighbor tree was visited also. They started to cut us down and soon we were' lying on the ground with our branches off! We were put on the sleigh and hauled to a saw mill. We were sawn into seven toot lengths and flat tened on both sides. We layoin a pile of logs all winter. In the spring we were put on a waggon and taken to a place, where some men were digging. I was put, into a shallow hole. Heavy pieces of iron were put on top of me. A month later, a huge engine with a heavy train of cars passed over me. Here I lay, a lone- ly common railroad tie. Joan of Arc was a little peasant girl who lived in Lorraine. She could neither read nor write. She loved to go to Church and hear stor- ies about samts and angels. One day, as she was tending her sheep, she saw a vision. An angel came down and gave her a a sword saying "Take this sword and fight tor Prance." She believed she was chosen by God to save France. She went to the Prince anti told him what [had happened. He gave her a white horse and banner and told his men to obey her. She fought the English at Orleans and won the bat- tle. She saw the Prince crowned at Rheims. The Story of the Pine Tree One day, I poked my head out of the ground and looked around . me in the sunshine. It was the month of April. I grew strong during the summer. When the cold weather set in, the leaves covered me and I went to sleep for three years. I grew very big ind strong. My leaves now failed to cover me. One day, near the end ot December two boys cam through , the woods. One of them said, ."That is a 'nice Christmas tree. Shall we cut it down?"
