So many people want to enjoy the free
baths in New York that each bather is

A buyer Of hay writes to the Country
Gentleman u request that farmers Gu,
their hay earlier. He would DO willing
to pay three or four dollars n ton extra
for good, bright preserved grass (which
properly cured hay really is) than for the
brittle, stalky stuff which too often fills
the market. He says: ut is a common
belief among farmers that grass cut when
nearly ripe, gives more weight per acre.
It may not be true, but If they think so,
they will be pretty sure to let 1t stand to
the last minute unless the argument oil
self-interest in the other direction geta
them out OF the miserable habit. In gen.
eral, the idea prevails that q few days
delay as to haymaking is not at all i'm
portant, and 90 when grain Is ripening
about the came time, that gets the pre-.
ference as TO timely care Farmers
should be taught those who seek to cell
hay at least-that every crop should be
gathered at Just the right time, and that
a failure TO do 40 will bring q financial
penalty. Late cut and owe ripe hay ia
little better than straw, and observing
purchasers know II. Millions Of dollars
are every year lost to the country from
this one cause-because, in general, far.
mers are slow in adopting this reform.
Our modern improved machinery for
rapidly making hay fayors the reform,
but as yet il does not seem 10 have
been very effective,
