The recent attempt to destroy Mr.. Blaine,
seems likely to prove an entire failure and
to serve no other pupose than that of in.
creasing his popularity and of advancing
his chances Of securing the Presidential
nomination. 1t seems fortunate that with
all those qualifications which all men re-
cognize as essential to proper admins
tration Of the executive office, Mr.. Blaine
unitcs enough Of the lawyer and of the
strategist, with sufficient courage TO defend
himself successfully against the machlna-
tons of his enemies. There can be no doubt
whatever that the tremendous efforts
which have been made with view to his
destruction were inspired by parties who
seek the advancement of other candidates.
This fact is now evident, and the scheme
must be abandoned, for the people will not
knowingly abct the interests of any one
man whose promotion is contingent upon
the downfall of some other. Every sense
of Justice is outraged by the practice Of
tearing one man down that another may
be built up, and the people will not be
very cheerful in contributing to the pro.
motion of any such purpose. Ifaftersev.

CUTTING GRASS.

II Will not be many weeks before the wild
grass will be fit to cut and cure for hay.
1t seems to bc a special arrangement of
nature, that the hay may he made in this
part Of the country before the harvest sea-
son begins, but there are many farmers
who do not realize tho necessity OF doing
this work carly. There arc several rca-
sons why they should make most Of their
hay before harvest. When the gram fields
are ready for the rcapcrs, they require the
service of every available man. When the
work of harvesting is done. threshing fol-
lows as necessity, for the crop must be
made to supply money with which to pay
for its raising. Threshing done, the plow
must he started and kept running until the
frost prevents its further progress. So
there is no time to make hay after the har-
vest begins, and it follows as matter OF
course that the work should be done be-
fore the first of August. Some of the best
wild grass that we have grows along the
small streams. This natures earlier than
any other and hence it is usually cut first,
aud much of it in former years has been
lost. Every farmer knows, or ought to
know, that we have annually what is call
"a tine June rise" ana II so happens that
the grass growing in the valleys of the lit
tie streams, is often cut just in time to he
swept away by freshet. The farmers
should guard against the recurrence Of
such a loss. Another thing,-grass cut
before it is fully mature needs to be cured
more thoroughly than if cut later. If put
INTO the stack before it is thoroughly dry,
it will either he at and become musty, or
mould and sour, and thus become unfit for
use. The hay crop should be gathered
with as much care as any other. If hay
is good, stock will eat it and thrive during
the winter, but if it is poor no matter how
much may be given them they will come
out "spring poor" and in many cases bad.
ly diseased. Another thing should be
considered. Many persons put up hay
for the market-expecting to sell it. If
they have good article they can always
get good price for it, when it would be
difficult to get rid Of poor article at all.
We hope the farmers will see the impor-
lance of securing their hay, not only in
good season, but in good order as we'll.
