NINETEENTH DAY 



The root cellar should be below the frost line. 

 It should have a dry floor, divided into bins 

 3 feet by 4 feet. Everything should be covered 

 with hay. On warm days the root cellar 

 should be aired. 



TWENTIETH DAY 



Clean up the vegetable beds, burn all the old 

 stalks, save the ashes. Stack the corn stalks 

 in the barn yard for feed for the cows. Fork 

 over the beds and trench them. This exposes 

 the eggs of insects to the frost. Plough the 

 beds if practicable. 



TWENTY-FIRST DAY 



Every three years, put on the soil a bountiful 

 amount of salt and lime, two tons of salt 

 one ton of lime to three acres.
