Curing Hay.

With their carefully prepared roots
and herbs, many of our mothers, Or
grandmothers could as well alleviate
the ills of humanity as can many of
college bred M. d. IS; but note with what
care those roots and herbs where gath
cred and prepared. That they might
retain all their virtues, they where in
variably cured in the shade. Now we,
as farmers, may learn from this les
son of wisdom and practical utility, as
applied to the hay field. Cure in the
shade versus make hay while the sun
shines. Now the question arises, which
Of these two antagonistic principles or
maxims shall we follow? Certainly,
after due reflection, all will admit that
hay made in the shade is superior to
that cured in the sun, whereas the for
mer method requires more labor than
the latter. In answer to the above in
terrogations, both the price of hay and
the price of labor must be taken into
consideration therefore in general, we
reply, that if labor is plenty and hay
shade; but if labor is high and hay at
low fgurcs--curc III the sun. There
are also other materials to he taken into
account.
Thus Il large crop of clover should
invariably be cut, and, partially Wilted,
gathered up in haycocks of suitable size
and allowed to sweat Il day or two; then
open the same, and after an hours OK
posture to the sun it will be in a most
excellent condition to store away for
the shade, or cock, not simply because
the sweating process is SO highly bene-
fetal to this particular grass, but because
if the crop be large, it will require, to
cure it sufficiently, at least one or two
days exposure to the sun, and, as q
matter of necessity, exposing it to the
night dew, and possibly to an uncN-
pected rain storm. Now, as Il hot. sun
is particularly Injurious to clover, and
moisture, as dew or rain, far more so,
therefore clover, at least, should be
treated in the manner above described,
or cured in the shade. Avoid the very
common and injurious practice of over
curing the hay. If the grass is ma
tured when cut, and does not get wet,
it will be sufficiently dried or cured in
from two to four hours in favorable
weather, clover, early cut and lodged
grasses being, of course, exceptions

Brownies Nest.

Once had little brown chicken.
She was one Of q brood which came
out of theshell very early in the Spring,
while the ground was covered with
snow. All the rest of the brood died
from the cold; and then the children
took this little chicken into the house,
and wrapped her in soft wool, and laid
her in a basket in corner by the fire.
They fed her with crumbs, and gave
her fresh water every day, until the
warm weather came; when she had
grown so strong that she was able to
run about with the other chickens.
But she did not forget her warm
corner by the fire, nor the children's
care; for, whenever the door was open,
she would run in make herself at
home.
The children named her Brownie.
She grew to be a hen; but she still loved
to come into the house, and was always
petted.
One day L was sewing in my room,
when Brownie walked in. She turned
her little head to one side, and looked
up at the bureau; then she stepped
along, turned her head to the other
side, and looked up at the wardrobe.
After looking at the furniture in that
way, she flew up, and camc right down
in the middle of my bed. "Ah! Miss
Brownie," 1 thought, s'that is almost
too saucy; but ! viii watch you Il
minute, and SEQ what you Will do"
She scratched about with her feet,
and picked with her bill Il little while,
and then she sat down very quietly.
After few minutes she got up, said,
"Cut-cut-cut ca-dnr-cut," flew down OIL
the bed, and what do You think l saw"
A little white egg!
The next day / was watching my
baby Harry, who was asleep on the
bed; Elsie and Fred were playing with
their blocks on the carpet. The door
was shut; / heard two little feet come
patting along through the entry, and
scratch ut the door. Iwcntto the door,
and opened it.
There stood Brownie. l knew she
had come to find her nest; 50 l thought
/ would make it ready for her. 1 threw
an old quilt over my white bcdspread,
put ON it the egg she had left the day
before, and then sat down. She walked
around, peeping this way and that, and
then flew up to- the bed She seemed
pleased with my arrangements, and sat
down as before.
told her she must not wake my
baby with her "Cut-cut, c;l-dar-cut;"
but he walked in Il few minutes, and
seeing Brownie on the bed, he put out
his little fat hands to pull her feathers.
I was afraid she would scratch or pick |
him, and went quickly to take him
away; but she only turned her head |
and looked Mt him in u mOthcriy |
way, as if to say, 'sPull my feathers rs
much as you like Harry; am used to
babies.'' She staid about rs long rs
the day before; and she said, 'Cut-cut-
cut, ca-dar-cut," and went out. When
