Selection And Storage of Field Seed Roots

(Experimental Farms News)

Growers who are interested in the production of suede or rnangel seed in 1940 should endeavor to select their "seed roots’ wherever possible. out of fields grown from registered or certified stocks of ap- proved varieties, states the Divis- ion of Forage Plants, Central Ex- perimental Fann, Ottawa. The selected roots should be stored in such a way as to reduce losses to a minimum.

The roots selected need not be

small roots are easier to handle, take up less room in storage, keep better and yield reasonably well. However, large mature roots may be used also if others are not avail- able. The "seed roots" should be carefully selected for trueness to

in root pits. Root. cellars have the advantage of being permanent, but are not as cheap storage as pro- vided by pits. Root cellars should be used if available, since they are preferable where extreme in tem- peratures occur.

It has been found that greater losses are caused by sudden changes in temperature than by continued low temperature, even when the latter run for consider- able periods a few degrees below the freezing point of the roots in storage. However, the optimum temperatures for winter storage of roots are from 32 to 38 degrees F.

Root pits require very little ma- terial in their construction. They should be located on ‘yell-drained sandy knolls or hillsides. A trench should be dug 10 to l8 inches deep and 4 to 6 feet wide, with the length depending on the quality of

roots to be stored. The earth from the pit should be thrown back on both sides of t-he pit yyhere is will be convenient to use for covering the pit later. Ventilators are con- struced from four 6-inch boards nailed together to form a square pipe. Six-inch openings are left on two opposite sides about a foot apart.

The roots are piled lnio the p‘t so as to come to a peak at a height ‘of 24 to 88 inches above the ground level. As the roots are placed into the pit, the upright ventilators are set in place. The first ventilator ls placed about two feet from the end of pit, and the others are sct about four feet apart. The open- ings in t-he ventilators should be placed lengthwise to the pit and the uppermost opening shou‘d not extend higher than the top lovel of the first layer of straw After the ventilators and the rods are in place, the pit should be cover- ed with a thin layer of straw and left for a few days. If sheets are available they should be used to protect the pits from rain for this period. When the roots have

sweated sufficiently, the covering

of straw is increased to one foot and the whole of the pit except a foot along the ridge should be cov-

cred with d to l0 inches of earth. If more earth is rcouired than that

which was taken out of the trench,

it should be taken_ not closer than

4 feet from the edge of the pit.

The opening along the ridge of the

pit should be covered with t-wo

boards nailed in the shape of a V and inverted. After the pit is cool and dry these boards are re- moved and the opening is covered with earth. It is a good practice to put a few inches of manure on the ground around the pit where the soil was taken for the first covering so as to kee ‘the frost out of the earth and ma it easier to

get soil for the second covering.

When the first layer of earth is frosen hard enough to bear the weight of s man. another layer 0i -8 to 8 inches of straw followed by a layer of 6 to I inches of earth is placed over the bit.

SPORTING HANDS

Beautiful hands and sport do not

go together. The hands of the sportswoman are inclined to broaden, flexibility is lost to a cer- tain extent, the texture cf the skin becomes tougher, the backs of the hands may show cording at quite an early age, and there may be callouses on the plams. Special exercises help to keep the hands flexible. Nightly massage with a soft velvety cream will prevent cording and keep the skin ln good condition. Cuticle oils are impor- tant, and the professional manicure should be regular and include the palest type of varnish.

Exercises will help to keep the

t hands flexible. ‘rhose recommended at one beauty parlor lnchide:

(a) "The Grecian." Make a

tight fist, fling fingers out, fan shape, then relax completely. Re- peat each hand ten times.

(b "The Circle." Grasp left

hand firmly with right. hand and rotate at wrist clockwise and coun-

tor-clockwise ten times. Repeat

on other hand.

(c) "The Swan." Bend hand at

wrist, holding fingers backwards as far as possible. Dip fingers down

(imitating the dive of a swan) and

move hand forward continuing the

motion. Repeat each hand ten times.

MASSAGE

To massage the hands smear the cream from fingertips to wrists. start with the little finger and l assaae the cream in thoroughly from the tip to the base with the thumb and first two fingers of the other hand. Continue until all fingers and thumb have been mas- saged, then hold left hand up, palm towards you, place right thumb in the palm of the left hand, and knead in the cream from the base off fingers to the wrist. until the whole hand has been covered.
