AN UNEXPECTED TREAT.
James NJ. Ward to Participate In the

4uGCs 0A 4IAIVA VloCo VA NAO VuA we
A recitation by James M. Ward,
the renowned Irish comedian, will be
one Of the leading attractions of the
Fourth of July excercises-that
gentleman having kindly volunteered
his services, although he will give
performances of his own the evenings
Of Tuesday and Wednesday, the 5rd
and 4th instant.
This is nothing unusual fer Mr.
Ward, as wherever he has been-and
this writer's acquaintance with him
dates back over 20 years-he has
invariably donated his services to any
meritorious cause brought to his
notice.
The people of HALEY and vicinity
should testify to their appreciation of
Mr.. Wards liberality by crowding the
house for the performance of Tues
day evening. "Inshavogue," the
Irish drama which will be presented
that evening, has drawn crowded
houses in the large cities for weeks al
;; q time.

EARLY IN THE FIELD.

Already there are three presidential
tickets in the field. as follows: Equal
suffragists, Belva Lockwood, of WASH
ington city, for president, and Alfred Il.
Love, of Philadelphia, for vice presi-
dent. Union labor, A. j. Streeter, OF
Illinois, for president, and Chas. Z. Gun
ningham, of Arkansas, for vice presi'
dent. United labor, Robt. FL. Condry,
of Illinois, for president, and W., ii. L.
Wakefield, of Kansas, for vice president.
If being first in the field signifies success,
then Mrs. Lockwood and her Love will
have sure thing, as their nomination
was the first one made. The prohibit
tionists have not been heard from yet,
but the nomination appears to be con-
ceded to General Clinton B. Fiske, for
president, while DIR. Mcdonald, of vine
gar bitters fame, can have the second
place on the ticket if he wants it.

Fat Pork and Bacon.

The sentiment that hogs have been
trained and fed for early maturity and
the putting on of fat 10 too great an ex-
tent is becoming general the world over,
and will presently dominate every civil
lied community. Once in while we
hear from an old timer who kicks and
growls, pokes fun and satirizes the new
design but it will do little good save TO
hasten the end. y communicated arti-
Gle in the London Live Stock Journal
contains the following which may be
employed as an illustration:
Nothing could. we fancy. be worse
than the wants Of the bacon curers
being neglected except the allowing

ON THE FARM.
Cutting Hay.

Live Stock Indicator.
One of the most important items of
work on the farm is the proper cutting
and storing of the hay. just at what
stage is the best time for cutting grass,
in order TO secure the best quality of
hay, is with many debatable question.
If cut too early there is an excess of
water that in curing dries out so there is
a considerable loss of weight, that is, hay
or grass cut too early requires a larger
bulk of hay to weigh given amount
than if the hay is allowed to ripen.
Again, if the hay is allowed TO stand too
long and get too ripe it contains too large
per cent of woody fibre that destroys,
to "A greater or less extent, Its value as a
food. 1t is not only an item to secure
hay that will contain as large a per cent
of nutriment, but at the same time it
should be in a condition to be well rel
ished by the stock.
Where large crop is to be taken care
of. III many cases it will be necessary to
commence a little early or else run con-
siderable risk OF having part entirely
too ripe. All things considered SO far as
possible, the nearer the grass can be cut
when it is in full bloom or just after, is
the best time for making hay, and it
can be done by arranging ahead, getting
everything in good shape SO that the
work can be pushed along as rapidly as
possible. Hay cut at the right stage,
well cured and properly stored, will
make feed Of the very best quality,
but there is a very considerable differ
ence between that which is cut at the
right stage, well cured and properly
stored, than when cut either too early or
too late and good care is not taken In
the curing or storing away.
1t is only by feeding food of a good
quality that we can expect TO secure the
best gain at the least expense. while at
the same time better heath and thrift
viii be secured. While it IS very impor-
tant to cut at the right stage. the curing
and storing away is fully as important if
the best quality is secured. Good hay is
good feed at all seasons of the year. and
stock can be kept in good. thrifty con
dition with the addition of very little ex-
ira grain. And, under ordinary condi-
tons, hay is cheap food, one of the
cheapest that can be secured and used on
the farm: never should be allowed to
waste. Make all the hay possible, as it
can nearly always be used To a good adj
vantage What cannot be used To good
at one time will, if properly
stored, keep a long time. But care
should be taken to cut at the right stage,
cure thoroughly. and then store so as to
keep in u good condition.
