Stacking Hay.

A writer in an exchange says: "a vast
amount of hay is lost by bad stacking.
Many who attempt to stack have no proper
ideas of the subject, and not few OF those
who understand it are inexcusably negli-
gent when they undertake the work. The
process Of stacking hay is very simple. The
essential points may, perhaps, be reduced
to two; 1st-Keep all sides at an equal
height and the centre considerably crown
ing; and 2d-Keep the whole surface of
the stack thoroughly tramped These two
rules, carefully observed, will ensure stack
that will be very little damaged by the rain,
whether it be egg. shaped or simple cone.
But there are several other points which
should be observed in making a perfect
stack. In the first place, there should be a
clear space'of about foot between the hay
and the ground For this the cheapest
plan is to lay three rails or poles on blocks,
or stout stakes driven into the ground, and
then poles crosswise, thick enough to
prevent the hay from falling through.
Care should be taken that the hay laid at
the bottom does not hang over the ends of
the poles, so as to obstruct the free circu-
lation Of the air under the stack. The fork
fuls of hay should be laid fiat, and not
rolled up into wads or bundles because
when part is thus rolled, the stack will
settle uneyenly, and perhaps careen to one
side, The centre should be tramped more
than the sides, and kept higher all the
way up, so that when the stack settles, it
will settle more on the sides than in the
centre, and so that when the hay is pitched
of, it will be found to lay in the form of
water shed from bottom to top. Rain can
never find its way to the centre of stack
formed in this way Aladder long enough
to reach nearly to the top Of the stack
should always be at hand, and as soon as
the stack is topped out, and while the stack
er stands on the crown, the upper part
should be thoroughly raked down, and
two or three stout hay ropes, with weights
at the ends, should be thrown across the
top and fastened together at the crossing
The weights. should hang as low as the
bulge Of the stack. Saplings three or
four inches through at the but may take
the place of these ropes, their tops being
withed together on the top of the stack.
In hundreds of instances every year tops
of stacks are blown off and large amount
of hay lost, just from the neglect of this
precaution, which would cost about one
hours work.
The whole stack should be nicely raked
down, as this leaves the hay on the outside
hanging dowhwards. forming O most per-
feet water shed, All the hay lying on the
ground around the stack should be taken

PATHS Marriage Contract.

Paris Correspondence Nav York TimesI
l have just heard the particulars of the
marriage settlement agreed to between the
Marquis dc Caux and Adelina Patti, or
rather exacted by Baron James Rothschild,
as the friend aud guardian of the latter.
The sum OF 100000 francs, constituting
the whole of Tie Divas fortune, is to be
placed In trust for the benefit of herself
and children. The pTncipal is not to be
touched underany circumstances whatever,
Mile. Patti herself only enjoying the inter-
est thereof.
0ne-third of her future earnings is to be
set aside in the same manner, the remaining
two-thirds TO be used rs her husband and
herself may decide, G I0J
The father and mother of the bride are
to have each q pension of 6,000 frances,
which is to be allocated out Of her income.
This provision is honorable TO Mile Patti,
whose sentiments of daughterly affection
have always nthemselves superior to
every characterization.
The Marquis De Calix asked to have the
sum of $50, 900 francs set aside for thepay-
ment of the mortgage on his estates, but
on this point the Baron de Rothschild and
Maurice Strakoseh were inexorable, SO that
the property will have to be put up for sale
unless the creditors Of the Marqnis con-
sent to wait for the chance repayment from
Adelina's future earnings, a contingency
not very probable from the well known
spendthfift habits OF her future husband
It is calculated that at present Mile
Patti earns abont 400, 900 francs year
which, with prudence, would soon enable
the Maruuis to pay off his debts. Accus-
toned, however, to live at q rate far above
his income, il is not likely that he will be
induced to put such restraint upon his
tastes as will enable him to accomplish
such q desirable result. It had been
stated that as soon as the marriage took
place the services of Strakosch would be
dispensed with. So far is this from being
the fact that the Marquis offers a contract
to him to continue his services to Mile.
Patti for three years. on terms nearly as
advantageous as before. You may RELY
upon the above being the exact conditions
of the marriage settlement, they have been
agreed to on both sides, and nothing re-
mains hut to complete the ceremony itself,
which l understands is to take place on the
first of August. 'a
