To Measure Haystacks.-Says an old
farmer, More than twenty years since [
copied the following method for measuring
hay, from an old publication, and having
verified its general accuracy, have both
bought and sold by it, and l believe it may
be useful to many farmers where the means
OF weighing are not at hand. Multiply the
length, breadth and height into each other.
and if the hay is somewhat settled, ten
solid yards make ton, Glover will take
from ten to twelve solid yards per ton

POST OFFICE MANAGEMENT.

EDITOR ARGCs Permit mechanic, who
has little time to waste in waiting for clerks to
loiter about town, to ask if the rules Of the
post Office department allow post offices to be
closed for dinner, in cities of this size?
On Thursday, | waited until . O'Clock P.
NJ. for the post Office to be opened, and |
counted MtHyetgM persons who came to the
post Office door during that time, and went
away, unable to get in. And during por-
ton of that time | saw one Of the clerks loaf
ing about the stores, smoking.
Now, don't like to grumble, but laborng
men and mechanics cannot afford to lose
their time waiting for post Office clerks to loaf
about town. 1t seems to me that great pains
should lie taken to accommodate that class Of
our citizens whose time is money to them.
