Cutting Hay Early.

II is now better understood than former
ly that some kinds of hay should be cut
early, especially for cows. But in the
declaration of new doctrines we are dis
posed to go 10 the extreme. Because
good grass cut in June or early July,
makes better hay, it is not to be presumed
that all grass will. Clover, orchard grass
and timothy attain their growth and ma
turity rapidly and early, and very soon, if
not cut, lose their good guilty; and this is
SO also of some other kinds of grass grow
ing on rich and warm uplands, and on any
highly cultivated land. But there is a
great deal of meadow which affords very
superior quality of hay, though cut late in
August. This is the case with much Of
the bottom lands, or river meadows, where
the grass does not attain half its growth
by the fourth Of July, and, if cut SO early,
would want its superior quality. Ii dries
up rapidly, the juices being only partially
developed, and it lacks nuiriment. Any
one who has had occasion to NOW a strip
of such grass in the early part Of July,
and to cut the grass adjoining the strip
four weeks later, will be struck with OBJ
serving the difference, NOT only in quantity,
but in the quality of the two cuttings.
There is also great deal Of upland natu-
raj meadow, where the grass is of slow
growth and late, and where The qusliiy of
it for hay improves nearly as long as it
continues to grow, retaining its good color
and rich aroma quite late in the season.
In seasons of low temperature, such mea.
dows will furnish an excellent quality Of
hay, cut as late as the first of September

A STRANGE ANIMAL.-A gentleman
travelling TO Pittsburg from one of the
neighboring towns, stopped to see friend
and left his horse tied on the road. On his
return he found that the animal had slipped
his bride, AMI while in search of him he
met an Irish pedestrian, Of whom he in
quired-
Have you seen strange creature
anywhere hereabonts, with saddle on his
back 2"
Och, by the powers, ye may say that
replied Pat.
Where?"
"Just yonder."
Will you show me the place 2"
z That will in less than no time," said
the man approaching a small wood Of
young timber. SAY, there he is, sure
enough, honey"
The gentleman looked up and said: g
do no, see him."
"Then by Saint Patrick you must be
blind Not see him? just cast your eyes
in that direction. Och, by the powers CT
mud, what's he about now? Only see he
swallows his head!" -
"Why, sir, that's turtle and not a
horse"
A horse and who in the deuce said
it was horse? Sure horse is not a
strange creature; but that's a strange crea-
,ure,' he added. pointing to it with fear
and trembling; "and he has saddle on
but hang him if would bride him for
the whole country"

One Of the best things have seen Of
late amongst my fellow farmers, is that OF
employing the service Of swine in the i'm
provement Of fruit trees. Two good-sized
shoats will do quite ms GOOD work in mel
lowing the sod-bound coil about the trunks
OF fruit trees, as can be done with the
spade and rake. They not only render
the earth perfectly mellow, but they des-
troy every grub, caterpillar and borer
found within their reach and this Kidding
the trees surroundings of these pests is
one principal object of employing their
aid for keep the orchard free from such
nuisances, tighten up the soil, and you at
once give vigor and health to your trees,
and have the promise Of larger and fairer
fruit.
Build portable board fence fur feet
high, and fifteen or sixteen feet square
around the tree TO be renovated, whether
it be standard Of forty years growth, or
but ten; put into the Enclosure couple
Of good-sized, six months old shoats, and
in three or four days, tree No l, is COM
pletely cleared of the Larvae, of all the
pests within reach; the soil is made rich
er by the dressing dropped over l.. Do
the same by tree No. 2, and so on through
out your entire orchard. Pass on the en-
closure, and pass on the pigs with it, and
they will repeat their work perseveringly,
till the last tree has been renovated. A
few minutes work with the rake will
smooth down the square plat under the
tree, and depend upon it, year by year,
you will find your account in the additions
10 your large, fair ingaiherings of fruit.
Your orchard will be healthier, handsomer
and longer lived. know of farmer
who sold thousand dollars worth Of
Baldwins last year, poor as the yield was
on many farms, and know of another
farmer whose pigs are profitably at work
for him to-day, who, doubt not, will sell
this present year. double the amount men,
toned above. Feed as usual; this will
not affect their proclivities for roofing.
They have nothing to do with the eight
hour system Of labor, but are deep in for
their business early and late, and befors
you are aware OF it. their work is COM
pleted. If the fros'less days of one year
are too few for rtnovating the entire or
chard, resume the process with fresh re-
enforcement the next.
The inventors Of labor saving machines
Y the mower, the reaper, the raker, the ap.
pie parer, &c, have added largely TO the
farming interests, but the eagerly looked
for-day is not distant, when every intelli
gent farmer will make it principle SO Il
direct his efforts in every department O
crop raising, especially, as to make two
blades of g'ass grow where but one grew
before, with the same labor.
