Arrieolturak -roroDta) EVERY OnUrto farmer who produces Milk, â€" and most of the farmera do, â€" should store a quantity of lee each winter in order to make it easier for hlip to cool the milk down after the evening milking, and to keep' it sweet for such short periods, â€" week-ends for eiample, â€" as he may be requlrei! to keep it ttefore deli-vering it at thu cheese factory or other point of dis- posal. In order to preserve the ice satisfactorily some form of ice-house or shelter is necessary. The purpose of (his article is to describe in a few words a type of ice-house which will give good satisfaction. The Ice-house does not necessarily have to be expensive, but certain con- ditions in regard to it must obtain If the ice is to keep well. These 1 shall emphasie first and they are, â€" protection of ice from sun's rays, this is the wall, good drainage from the bottom of the house, either natural or artificial, free circulation of air through the top, air-tight foundation, plenty of'good quality of dry sawdust on all sides of the mass of ice, and close packing of Ihe ice. If these conditions can be secured in a rough bin built .under a shed, or a lean-to on the shady side of a building, all well and good unless one has other good reasons for building a more ex- pensive structure elsewhere. The matter of convenience is often a de- ciding factor in this casw, and the type of ice-house I am about to de- scribe is a good illustration of this fact. Only once have I seen it in ii&e, but tlicre is no reason why it could not be used quite generally. This particular type consist.s of a lean-to structure of wood at one end of the barn which has the stable underneath. The size would vary with Ihe amount of iee required, but probably a building 15 feet square and 12 feet liiKh would be large enough for most farmers' needs. In this structure and at the side adja- cent to the barn, or rather the base- ment wall, is built a concrete enclo- sure about 6 feet square and 6 or 6 ',2 feet high. A door in the basement wall admits one to it. In the .side opposite to the doorway there is a row of 3 or 4-inch tile near Ihe bot- tom for letting In the cold air from the ice whicli is packed closely to the concrete storage on ~.ll three sides and over the top as well. Relween the top of the storage and the t>ain there is a narrow passage-way or flue for allowing the foul or u.sod air to get out, hence good circulation in the storage Is provided for. In this par- ticular case the farmer ha.s his milk- room containing cream separator, etc., adjoining this storage and wlien- ever hn wi.shos to cool milk or cream or store It he puts It In this storage. Other articles, such as butter and meat, are also storoil at times but of course only lor a few days at a time. Hence much handl- ing of ice is saved as well as con- siderable time. The building ts made of wood, the studding being boarded on both sides. It would be advisable to fill the space between the two hoardings witli planer shavings or good quality sawdust. The roof la covned with shingles. The gat)IeJ are loft somewhat open for ventila- tion. I'lenty of saw(hut la u.sid around the ice next to the walls, aiul also a good depth over the top, none however is used between the cakes of Ice. .Jf a few rakes of ice are re- quired for hoTisehoId w.so they may b(! easily taken out of Ihe sawdust Jn the top of ice-hou&e or at one side If more convenient. It win he si-en, therefore, that '.his type of Ice-hoiiso does double duty In n degree, namely, providing a small lee-cold storage room, cooled by the lee mass directly. In addition to hou.o- Ing Ice for various incidental uses In Ihe suiunier-time. In a case of this kind there would not be much need for taking out Ice except for supply- ing the household refrigerator as tlie Kiruiige-ronm would take caro of the ordinary cooling and preserving of products. nelie.ving this arrangement to be valuable, and in m.nny cases piactl.- able on Ontario farms, I have much pl(>asure In n'oommending it to fann- ers In general. â€" U.

However. a real good heavy draft hoi-se i.s iiani to lind. and if Old Country market.s are i.ny criterion of tli,' trend of af- fairs an awakening in the Canadian Draft Horse market should soon fol- low. Draft geldings are selling in Kngland for from $S00 to I.IOO and even up to $1,000 each. A returned ofllicr told mo recently of Hei.'ing a number of Canadian geldings (artil- lery and transport horses) sold in Old London for £100 (J500) each. About one-fifth of Great Dritaln's Or- dinary supply of work horses went to (ho war and a number of useful brood mares were also taken. France, Del- glum, Hiissia and Oermany, four of tho greu( horse-producing counirlea, have lo«( a heavy percen(a«c of their horse stock during the war. Already a shipment of Percherons has gone fronj Western Canada to France, and It would seem that during (he period of reconstruction our horse market will be Hast and not West. If it will pay (o breed any horse on (he Cana- dian farm the heavy draft of good quality should turn in most money to his o« ner. R. P.

In the making of cakes or pastry they use those ingredients which they believe to he pure and wliolesome. To apply this "insistence on purity" to sugar, is no easy matter â€" for nearly all sugars look alike to those not ex- pert in detecting variation. The safe course is to use a sugar that comes from refineries in wliich purity is a boast. In the Dominion Sugar refineries the boast is backed by a standing invitation to the public to visit and inspect the plants in which Dominion Crystal Sugar is made. • In Dominion Crystal Sugar the house- wives of Canada have one sugar that can be depended upon for that Purity which is so essential to successful culinary effort. This is the only sugar that may be rightly termed "Canadian from the ground up. ' We do import the finest raw cane sugar and refine it â€" tut our pride is in the product we make from Canadian sugar beets.
