have three eighteen-inch windows on east and west 
sides of building in the cellar, and three large win-

“About picking time, we begin to cool off the 
building by keeping open during westerly winds or 
cold waves, and closed as much as possible when it

the cellar this winter (1896-7) since December 28, the 
results of which are as follows:
