CUTTING AND MAKING HAY.

CUTTING AND MAKING HAY.
In making hay, the man object to he

condition as possible, TO accomplish
this it is necessary to know in what state

dlents OF grass, those portions soluble in
water Immediately are best fitted for M

the largest amount of gluten, sugar and
other soluble matter in water is contain

ed by chemists to be, when the grass is
IN full flower, before the seed is formed.
The main object in hay making is, to
retain the soluble part Of the grass in
perfect integrity, and the removal of its
moisture The art OF drying hay just

the natural Juice IF the plant is difficult,
and requires much attention The hay
from some soils is hard, and requires
less drying than that from other soils,
where the grass is more succulent. In
very hot and scorching weather grass
becomes crisp, rus,les, and handles like

pated to fit it to be put in the NOW, and
the consequence is, if thus stored. it is

thus in cutting grass, instead of the
scythe and snath, the moving machine,
driven by horses, is coming into use
wherever it can be used to advantage,
thus tightening the labor of the feld.-
The new mown grass, if allowed to lie
in the scorchlng sun, is apt to brown. or

The nIetric system.

Odr readers are aware that Congress
has passed a law authorizing the use of
the metric system of weights and meas
ures. Great Britain has recently passed
a similar law, and it is understood that
in both countries these permissive laws
are preliminary TO enactments requiring
the use of the system, which has already
come into use in the principal countries
of Europe, an6 will doubtless soon be
the only system dofrweights and meas
ures in commercial and Christian coun.
tries. .-L3 G.EJ e. !" ga d
The advantages of the system are
manifest to all who have examined the
subject, and IL can be fully learned and
mastered by any one in a few minutes.
In the last issue ofIthat excellent paper,

lowing clear and concise explanation of
the system.4 First, it is necessary to
learn the meaning of the four units
