TIME OF CUTTING.

Professor Martyr says, ''grasses are
care" We wish they were more
the care of men. We are
well aware of the variety of opinions en-
tertained as to the proper time of cutting,
and of the difficulty of not being able to
secure the whole crop at the precisely
appropriate time; still there is careless
ness or Indifference existing which results
in serious loss. The farmer must re-
member that it is not so much the bulk of
hay on his scaffolds, that is to afford nu-
triment to his cattle and take them thro'
the winter in good flesh and health, as it
is that the hay is secured with all its nat
ural juices which it is possible to pre-
serve.
In order to secure this it must first be
cut at the right time. If cut too soon,
before the sap is fairly elaborated into
nutritive properties, such as sugar, mu-
cilage, albumen, &C., it shrinks immense
ly, and when dry has but little bulk or
nutriment. On the other hand, if left toe
long, the plant expends its energies upon
the seed in accordance with the natural
law to perpetuate its kind. The seeds
ripen, and fall to the ground and are lost
while the stem and leaves are little bet.

SALTING HAY.

This is now, we believe, extensively
practiced, and, judiciously done, we have
no doubt it is well. Those who are in
the habit of placing salt before cattle,
know that during the winter season they
will take but little. A COW consuming
ton of hay in the cold months, we are
confident would not voluntarily consume
two quarts of salt-and yet many far
mers are in the habit of applying eight
quarts tosa ton! This is probably the
source of many of the recent diseases
among cattle. 1t leads, also, to the SLOW
emily practice of getting the hay in a
damp OF partially cured state, under the
idea that the salt will preserve all its vir-
tues.
The whole subject of hay-making needs
more consideration. Several things are
suggested which must be left for another
talk.

SUMMER NIGHT.

with whispers any heart would trust,
And loving hand, the wind doth thrust
The curtain folds away
SO waiting ear
Might better hear
What willing lips might SAY.
upon the floor, like silver fakes
Or blOssorn, that the south wind shakes,
The noiseless nnoonbeams fall;
While on the sky
All over lie,
like beads the nun-liks moon has dropped'
The stars:
And bars
OF darker clouds the Light ones stay
That else would drift serene away
The sash around, above, below,
In curls a belle would love to throw
Back from her snowy brow,
The ambitious vine doth climb;
And more aspiring yet, and bold,
OF lightning rod ittaketh hold,
And mounting to the very caves,
looks down upon the train it leaves
Of trust, how sweet
An emblem meet!
Its love in green festoons it shrouds'
The route Of lightning from the clouds!
So calm and still is ev'ry thing,
The brooklet doth not care to sing!
But starts a strain,
Then stops again
like one would strike the soft guitar
When thought is with a heart afar
Iargard on the air the thistle floats,
Upon the moon the night owl gioats;
The dog on guard
Within the yard
In thrilling dreams Of chase is lost
A sentinel asleep upon his pos;
Amid the gentle, falling light
Amid the grandeur Of the night
softly tread,
Around my head,
And shutting half my form from view,
The curtain hangs; and booking through,
MY heart doth beat
Like to the feet
or children patt'ring on the leaves
While within my inner life there breathes
A gentle prayer
FOR watchful cafe
And all the Lord hath done for me
All rather by that window would be
Chan Ia courts of " Kingdoms by the sea-"
My hearts here
and only where
The heart is found can pleasure dwell!
An adulating tongue might tell
OF pomp and poweri and iattery kneel
To worship when it did not feel.
But heart would sigh
Again to fly
Where would fill on listening ear
The breathings Of the loved ones near!

i sufficient to cure hay cut in the morn
inc or the previous evening, where there
is not more than thirty hundred to the
acre. In such base the swaths should
be evenly spread. and it will be necessary
to stir it quite often, and lay it up as
lightly as possible from the ground.
A general rule should be enforced that
no hay be left in swath or winnow over
night. unless it be that cut just before or
after shutdown. There are two advan-
tages in its being cooked; it prevents
the iniurious effects of dew or rain, while
the slight heating process which is gong
on causes an exhalation which is RETAIN
ed in the cock, and gives the hay most
fragrant odor. In good weather, two
days, at most, are sufficient to secure hay
even when heavy crops are cut. The
cocks should no. be opened on the sec
ond day until the dew has gone, and then
opeued in thick masses. After lying in
this manner until noon they are ready to
be carted to the barn.
Clover requires very different pro-
cess. 1t should be cut close to the ground,
and allowed to remain until the afternoon
of bright day, in the swath; then they
should be carefully turned upside dowr
with fork, and left over night. Aftel
dinner on the following day, the swatt
should be taken up with the fork ano
laid in a coek-not rolled or pushed uI
and then these cocks may remain two
nights. After that, on a clear morning
they may be turned over to admit the
sun and air for few hours, when they
will be ready to go in, with their leaves
all on, and as sweet and fragrant as {
nosegay. A load of brush is worth abou
as much for cattle as load of clover
cured as it is often done. Allen, in hi

evident, in the diminished quantity 0

the pasture and put upon the hay mad
from grass similar to that before consum
ed. There is undoubtedly combinatio
of causes to which this may be imputed
but the bad condition of the hay is ofte
prominent one.
