e ONE CAUSE OF WASTE.
WHEN TO CUT YOUR HAY.
Some Pointcre For Growere of Tim
othy and Clover to Bear In Mind.
Timothy may he cut In the forenoon
as soon us the dew is off ami raked
into windrows Immediately after din
ner If the weather is dry and clear.
Any hay preserves best Us color, aro
ma and piilatahlllty ley being shocked
or placed iu the stack In the greenest
possible condition without being so
green that heating or molding will oc
cur. If the timothy Is very heavy and Is
exposed to dew or a light shower be
fore It Is niked it will frequently lie
necessary to use the tedder in order to
shape It up thoroughly and get rid of
moisture.
Kxcept in the case of small fields un
der conditions which would not Justify
an outlay for machinery, there Is very
little of the hay crop which goes into
the old time shock. This la undoubted
ly a very sntisfactory way of curing
hny in Its best condition, especially if
protected l'iy fl shock cover, but where
large amounts are to lie handled It is
better economy to place It In a mow
or stack It directly from ttie windrow.
Clover is best cut when it is In full
bloom, hut it Is better to cut It earlier
thnn t Ills rather than Inter. If cutting
Is delayed until some of the clover
blossoms mature and turn dark there
Is likely to be a heavy loss of foliage
and a consequent deterioration in feed
ing value. Orange Judd Farmer.

Economy Bean Harvester.
To make n lieaii harvester thnt will
do frood work and yet Involve scarcely
any expense tnke a common hoe to the
blacksmith. Have
shank cut In two
and take a piece of
steel of the same di
ameter and have a
piece about ten
Inches long welded
In. This is to keep
the handle from
striking the beans
and shelling them. Have the hoe
sharp and cut Just at top of ground,
putting two rows Into one when chop
ped otr.
You can chop them nearly as fast as
you enn walk, and when the beans are
.dry tnke a common pitchfork nnd loud
on to a wagon. In this way much hard
labor Is saved with but Hltle expense.
-Farm and Fireside.
Teat Cow and Farmere Too.
One of the best effects of the cow
testing associations Is on the farmer
himself. One of the men who look
after the cow testing associations Raid
to us once that he had repeatedly no
ticed that thnt farmer was a "gone
case" who could not be aroused to bet
ter thinking nnd management by the
work uf the test. Too mnuy farmers
expect the cows to change for the bet
ter without doing anything; in thnt di
rection themselves. - Hoard's Dairy
man. Give the Lambkins a Chance.
Lambs frequently experience a diffi
culty in finding the teats owing to the
long wool surrounding the udder, nnd
It Is very Important that the shepherd
examine every ewe and use the shears
to cut away nny surplus wool. This
will enable the lambs to feed with
greater ease, .-mtl they are less apt to
become victims of wool balls In the
Btomaeh. which frequently cause death.
