The practice Of waiting until grass is
thoroughly ripe before cutting, aud after
cutting allowing it to remain in the field
until the little juice that is left is dried out
before it is put into the stack or bale is
simply a relic Of agricultural barbarism.
This system Of hay-makiug was evidently
founded on the mistaken notion that more
growth was secured by allowing the grass
to stand until it was thoroughly ripened,
and from fear that it would hurt and
mold if put away before being thoroughly
dry but the first supposition is now proven
to be false, aud the fears in regard to the
latter point have vanished before the light
Of experience.
One Of the most sound and orthodox
tenets Of agricultural faith is the belief
that if grain is not cut even before it is per-
fectly matured, it loses in substance. Our
oldest and most experienced iarmers-those
whose judgment has not been biased by
book iarming-will assure US that if wheat
is not cut before it has thoroughly ripened,
portion of it goes back into the ground.
And so it does - that is, portion Of this
portion; the rest Of it going abroad upon
the wings of the wind from whence it came
Ia growing Indian corn also, if the stalks
are not cut before the ears are perfectly
ripened, there is the same loss of substance
This loss is not confined to the stalks which
as we all know are rendered almost worth.
less by remaining uncut through the ripen-
ing season, but the ear loses also i'm weight

Cider once properly made and put into
sweet, fresh barrels the balance Of the
process in vinegar-making is no trick at
all. II is a chemical operation, to be sure,
but nature will be good manipulation Of
it, The chemistry of the thing consists
simply in the oxygenation of the cider, and
if the air is allowed free access to il, the
oxygenation will 90 on slowly through the
winter aud more rapidly in the summer
The process may be accelerated by keeping
the cider in warm room, and made more
rapid still by tricklng the cider through
hogshead or large cylinder perforated with
holes on the side and filled with birch shaw.
ings, so as to allow the air to come 10 con.
tact with it. A little yeast added to the
cider gives it good start on its fermenting
course.
Our custom is to await the slow process
Of nature, and to admit air to the cider
only through the bung.hole. Ia the Sum.
mer we take the barrels out Of the cellar
and place them in a sunny place, mailing
some wire gauze over the bung holes to
keep out flies and straws We have known
the latter to be inserted by thevish bpeds
This process makes vinegar slowly but
surely, but we are inclined to think the re-
suit is better article than by more rapid
manufacture Things hastily made are apt
to be poorly made. i paint in long
time aud for long time" said one Of the
old Grecian artists. This mode Of making
vinegar requires about twelve months
Early made cider will sometimes 90 through
the yinous aud acetous lamentations the
same fall, but it forms a poor article, aud
we prefer to wait till the latter part Of
October or the first OF November before we
start the cider mill for the supply of the

Beware Of all nostrums in the mauuiac-
urc Of vinegar The simple, unadulter-
ated juice Of ripe apples-if small aud

growth on old vinegar, and will doubtless
hasten the acetous fermentation in cider,
as it contains within itself the seeds Of de.
cay, but it is very opt to contain also bad
favors and too much corruption. Putting

bringing up little child to associate aud
sleep with its aged and iufrm grandmother.
The child grows old fast enough without
such an unnatural catalytic influence.
If any one has old cider in his cellar
which he wishes to double in value, now is
the time to put it out into the sunshine. 1t

door as it does in the cellar.

That tomatoes are benefited by pruning
we have not the slightest doubt, and we
yearly practice it in our own garden. Some
recommend and others practice cutting off
all the tops Of the plants, to which we most
strongly object, as we are satisfied that such
course is very injurious to the plants, as
well as to the perfect ripening of the fruit.
As the tomato begins to grow select say
three or four Of the strongest shoots, pinch
all the others out should there be any by
the finger and thumb, close to the main
stem. When these four branches begin to
show fruit, small lateral branch will show
itself Immediately at the next joint. These
should all be pinched out as fast as they ap-
pear, letting no shoots grow at any time
but the four main branches referred to by
so doing, whether the plants are tied to
stakes or laid on the ground, we have al
ways found that we secured larger, finer,
and at the same time heavier crop, than
we could by any other process obtain.
