this has never demonstrated his fcal.y to

Hay-Making and Care of Meadows.

In making hay, tanners are apt to
become too much hurried with draw
ing in, so that they do not give the
hay time enough to cure ard sweat ;
hence it becomes mowburnt, musty
and discolored. 1t has been my OBJ
servation that the best way to har-
vest hay is to cut early, so as to Sc
cure good green color. Let the hay
lie and have plenty time to dry; use
the tedder, and then rake and cock it.
Loading from the windrow is a bad
practice. The hay may appear dry
after the hot rays of the sun have
poured upon it five or six hours, but
it is only on the outside. Tt should
be cooked up and have time to sweat
before it is put in larger masses. The
markets demand hay of good color,
and it pays well to use extra efforts
to secure such. Hay that is cut early
will bring two dollars per ton more
than that cut later and allowed to be-
come yellowish.
Though hay-making is important,
the care of the meadow is equally, if
not more so. It is best to seed with
fall crops, at the time of sowing or in
the ensuing spring. Do not pasture
much, and if the meadow is seeded to
timothy, don't pasture at all, or the
meadow will soon ':run out" Past
uring will cause the June grass to
start, and there will soon be no tim
othy. / know of meadows ten to
twelve years old that yielded from one
and half to two tons per acre last
year. They were never pastured,
last spring were narrowed, and where
thin, new seed was sown. Every
two or three years a quantity of
phosphate was sown, at the rate of a
few dollars worth per acre. This en-
riches the land and gives a good
growth Of grass. If the fall is wet
there will be quite growth after cut
ting. In spring, where this autumn
growth dried it is burnt over. This
warns the ground and gets rid of the
old dead grass, which would other
wise be raked up and spoil the sale of
the hay.-Amaerican Agriculturist

Care for Strawberries.

In preparing land for Strawberries
I should adopt very different courses
for different kinds of manure used,
and [ believe by so doing there is a
decided advantage to be gained. Ii
| was using barn-yard or stable man
ure, l should apply heavy dressing
to the ground Immediately after
ploughing and then work it thorough
" into the soil with disc harrow,
SIN oothing the piece up with a smooth
ing harrow. What do | mean by
heavy dressing? Well would put on
enough to cover the ground entirely
so you could not see the soil anywhere.
T hat is enough for land that is fairly
fertile.
But If l was dependant entirely
upon commercial fertilizers I should
adopt a very different course. l
should of course plough the land well,
and then should Immediately harrow
it with disc harrow and smooth it
up, mark it out and set my plants be-
fore applying any fertilizer. The
plants do not require it at first as it
will take them two weeks to get a
start or good hold upon the soil, which
they will do on good land, and no
other should be used for strawberries.
They will do it better without the
fertilizer than with it, as the strong
fertilizer is to apt to eat or kill the
roots of plant before it gets start
ed. At the same time I began my
first cultivating and hoeing, say two
weeks after setting the plants, [
should begin my manuring or feeding
the plants.
Before cultivation, 60 along each
row and spread your fertilizer all
along the row, and around the plants.
They are in a condition now to need
nourishment. They have begun to
get hungry and little good fertilizer
at this time goes a long ways and at
Just the time it is needed. The plants
are ready to take it up and get the
benefit of every ounce you put on.
After spreading the fertilizer go on
and cultivate, afterwards giving them
a careful hoeing. By these two OPP
erations you mix the fertilizer
thoroughly with the top soil above the
roots and its goodness is soon work
ed or washed down to the roots and
the plants Immediately take it up.
In about week or ten days repeat
the operation, and so on through the
season until your plants have the
growth and you cease to cultivate.
By so doing your plants are only fed
what they need and when they need
it, and constant and rapid growth
is kept up, and you have received
full value for every dollars worth of
fertilizer used.
None is wasted. If all is applied
at once before planting such guam
THY must be used as to kill your plants
or many of them. Much is lost by
early rains carrying it off or below
your roots and its value and strength
is gone long before your plants have
ceased to grow, whereas the other
way your plants are constantly re-
ceiving fresh food.

Water house plants with cold tea.
Wash gliding with water in which

To cleanse white zephyr shawls,
rub well with dry flour and hang IN

Clothespins boiled a few minutes

For poison oak, battle in cream and

Green vegetables will retain their
color if cooked in an uncovered yes
sci.
To make tins shine wash in hot
soap-suds, dip dampened cloth IN
fine sifted coal-ashes, then polish
with dry ashes.
There is no economy in purchasing
brown sugar. The moisture it con-
tains more than makes up for the dit
ference in price; but for some things,
such as dark cakes and mince pies,
many cooks prefer it. Granulated
sugar is the purest and best for ordl-
nary uses.
Coffee pounded in a mortar and
