ty of delinquent ax-paycrs, has tecn post

many persons to pay their taxes and save
their property. Some public official notice
of the fact of postponemcnt, would, it strikes
us, have not been out of place.

THE So. Ca. r. r. Co.-Mr. A. R. De-
Saussure, their agent at this place, has kind
ly fur ished us with copy of the proceed
ings Of the stockholders convention, and
the reports submitted to that body at its last
session. From it we learn the following in
tercsting particulars:
The earnings of the year were Sl,325, 442,o ,o0
The expenses were of3,eoo,63
Leaving net earnings $445, $50, 81
As compared with 1870, there was a de-
crease of S146,579,59 in earnings, but in
1871 the expenses were reduced by S36 ,273,-
10. The Yellow Fever season will in great
measure account for the decrease in earn
ings. From the various depots between
Camden and Kingsville, there were shipped
over the road during the year 12,759 bales
of cotton, of which 1O,O49 were shipped from
Camden. The officers report that they have
not suffered by competition and seem to be
we'll satisfied by the condition Of the road
and the management.

Cutting and Curing Hay.

The hay crop of 1870 was over 81
100000 Of tons. 1t is a well known
fact that i'm quality large proportion
of this crop is always inferior. The
loss Of value may be very well es-
timated ut 10 to 20 per cent. on the
whole crop. That is, the feeding value
of our hay is deprecated at least from
one-tenth to one-fifth by the imperfect
methods of cutting and curing gencr-
ally in use. Over-ripening and over
curing are the errors to which this loss
of value is mainly due. BY late cut
ting much of the soluble nutritious
parts of the hay are changed into indi-
gestible woody fibre, and by too long
exposure to the sun not only is the
same effect produced in some degree
but much waste of substance is made,
and nothing but dry woody stalks, be-
reft of the delicate and tender LEAKAGE,
are nut into the barn. Gradually farm
ers. instructed by the better Informed
Of their class through the agricultural
press, are learning to use the improved
methods, and are realizing the benefits
Of experiments and carefully made
tests carried out b, the most intclli-
gent farmers and chemists in the cOun-
try. These all go to show that hay
cut when ia blossom is far more nutri-
tious and actually yields more in
weight than when left to ripen its
seeds. More especially is clover dete-
rioratcd by late cutting-the loss
amounting to more than one-third III
nutritive matter-and it should there
fore be got down before brown head
shows itself in the field. At this time
the tender leaves and blossoms charg-
ed with sweetness, are gathered in with
the hay, and when fed to mich cows
during winter cause them to yield the
golden butter SO highly appreciated
bv those who are careless of price SO
that quality is secured. Further, when
cut at the exact time to make the best
hay. there is something still to be
gained in the mode Of cutting worth
attention. Rain and dew are always
TO be provided against, and these
should not be permitted to fall on the
hay when dry. Freshly cut hay is not
injured. but when once dried will suf-
ter by exposure to the wet. There
fore the cutting should be SO arranged
ms to time that the dry or partly dry
hay can be put into cocks on the
npproach of rain or before night dews
fall. The best time to cut is early in
the morning. as soon as the dew is OF,
IN TO 10 o'clock or after in the after
noon until evening. Then what has
been exposed to one days sun may be
raked up before night and cooked, and
if possible capped if rain is feared. In
the cock some fermentation Will take
place and heat will arise, which will
increase the feeding value of the hay
and render it more palatable to stock.
This will pass off and carry with 1t all
excess of moisture that remains III the
hay. and fit il for removal to the barn
or stack. A few minutes exposure TO
the sun and air, by Overturning the
cocks just before loading, will eflectu-
ally remove all danger OF damage by
molding i'm the NOW.

Technical Words.

In reading we frequently come
across technics with which we are un
acquainted. the understanding of which
is necessary to give US correct idea
of the subject. To obviatc this DIM
Guilty we give definition of some OF
the most common:
A firkin of butter, Sc pounds.
A sack of coal, 924 pounds.
A truss of straw, Sc pounds.
A stave of hemp, 80 pounds.
a sack of -four, 2S0 pounds.
A quintal, 100 pounds.
A piggot Of steel. l2O pounds.
A tress Of hay, IS pounds.
a bash, 80 bushels.
A kilderkin, Is gallons.
A barrel, SO gallons.
a hogshead, "a gallons.
A pucheon. 81 gallons.
English prices current often speak oil
the price Of wheat per quarter. 10 re-
ducc this to barrels, multiply the price
bv z and divide by IL, and it Will give
the price, at the same rate by the par.
rel. Thus, if wheat is quoted at %
shillings a quarter, multiply Sc by 4,
and divide by IL, and it gives the price,
80 shillings, 8 pence barrel.

Win back recompense for toll.

And every leaf that's gently shook
By evening breeze and morning showers;
God bless them all each leafs q gem

Blush rich i'm fragrant flowers,
And with each autumn surely bring
Their wealth of fruit in golden showers,
Like pomegranate on AarOn's rod,

And may He bless the farmers home,
Where peace and plenty reign;
No happier spot meath heavens high dome,
Doth this broad, beauteous earth contain,
Than where. secure from care and strife,
The farmer leads his peaceful life.
Unvexed by toll and tricks for gain,
He turns the fertile mold;
Then scatters on the golden grain,
And reaps reward a hundred fold;
He dwells where grace and beauty charm,
For God hath blessed his home and farm.
