CUTTING UP INDIAN CORN.

Last year some of our best farmers were
induced. by way of experiment, to cur their
coin and feed in yards, or on poor spots Of
land through the winter, and all VIC have
heard speak of1i! intend trying it again,
which is the best evidence they are pleased
with it. From what we have heard, how
ever, many farmers did no, get half the
good Of their fodder last season and some
derived but little or no advantage from il;
this argues had management somewhere,
and we have therefore concluded 10 give
such directions as will enable every one to
get all the benefit OF his crop.
lst' The proper time for cut.ingup corn
is just after it gets out of its milky state, or
as the grain becomes glazed over. If cut
earlier. there will be good deal Of shrink
ing in the ear, and the fodder will not be so
good, in consequence Of being cut before i.
was sufficiently matured.
3D. The instrument best suited 10 the
operation, is knife that will cut hill at
blow. The wrler last year had two
knives made out of an old scythe blade, by
cutting itnto two pieces, drawing shanks.
and having handles put on. They as very
cheap and FIRST rate for the purpose.
Sd, l! is generally thought best to cut
four rows and leave, ill you get over the
field, for the purpose of letting the first
cutting dry before adding to the bulk; but
but from the trials we have made, we
would as soon bave all stacked at once, as
at half dozen operations. A good plan
is to put two hands to cutting and stacking
toge'her-let them, cut about eight rows at
"a through and as soon as they ill their
arms full of corn, lei the shock be COM
menced between them, and continue 10
stand the stalks around till the shock is as
large as two hands can we'll manage, when
it is to have stalks bound round rear the
top 70 prevent it from being blown down.
4. Ii has been to often the case, shocks
have been suffered TO stand out in the field
i'll the fodder, by the influence Of rains and
dews, has been destroyed, and of,entimes
on this negligent plan, the corn falls, so the
farmers gets but little over half the value Of
his crop. The proper plan is, after the
corn stands out six or eight days, or till
sufficiently cured let it be hauled up and
put under sheds, or stacked like oats; under
this treatment the blades and stocks will
continue fresh and sweet all winter, and
consequently stocks will be fou nd Of il.
This is an item, in cutting up corn and
feeding in ears; Of much moment, and il
disregarded, the profits Of the plan will be
msasurably lost After being housed OF
stacked j! may BE- shocked cut just as wei

as it had been attended to in the Geld. The
husking the corn however before or aftef
being taken from the field will depend up
on circumstances. Where there are cattle
and hogs to consume the cIop, the best
plan is 10 haul up the corn in the shocks
ard stack it as before described; then feed
it TO the cattle frs. and lie, the hogs follow
and they will pick up all the refuse ears.
and scattering grains, that nothing be lost.
Thus cattle or mules and hogs will thrive
we'll by the same feeding. Another plan
to feed corn saved in this way which we
have tried. is 10 cut stocks, blades and ears
all with strong cutting knife, then s.eam-
boii it, and put little bran and salt. and
il in this state. Cattle will consume ALI
except few Of The stocks, which may be
thrown in ,l:e manure heap.
The advantages of cutting up corn are,
first, that the crop is saved with less labor
than the old plan Of first stripping OF tho
blades, then TOPPING and last of all pulling
and shocking the corn.
Secondly. The stalks when well cured
and fed out either by cutting and sieamng.
or to the yard, contain full as much nour.

tops which are usually saved.
Thirdly. The ground, BY this means, is

Fourthly. BY feeding the stalks, the
farmer is able TO save enough extra man.

farmers will try the system, and we think
they will no! be displeased at the change.
The-bsst proof in the world that it is the
