HOW TO RAKE HAY.
What q Pennsylvania Farmer Knows
About the Operation.

What a Pennsylvania Farmer Knows
About the Operation.
The merit of any implement or ma
chine depends upon the wise use of it,
and in making hay time and labor are
often lost by the unskillful use of the
implements. In raking, for instance,
one may go over the ground twice in
both raking and loading, by the unwise
method of raking. To avoid this the
side-delivery rake has been devised, but
it is of no use to one who knows how
to use the common dumping sulky rake.
My plan has always been to begin at one
side of the field. early in the morning,
when the hay is ready for it, and rake
the hay into winrows, turning at the
other side of the field, and so going
back and forth, continually adding to
the length of the winrows. Then,
when the loader comes along in the af-
ternoon, there will be load in each
winrow on any good-sized field, and the
load may be gathered without turn.
Or, if the hay is loaded by hand, the
wagon is drawn between two winrows
and loaded from each side. This makes
quick work. 1t is always wise to have
the hay raked half a day before it is
loaded, and after the first day the load
ing may begin in the morning; when
there has been no rain at night, the
dew will dry off in the loading and un-
loading.-A Pennsylvania Farmer, in
\. Y. Tribune.

tened with pegs, so that when cleaning
is necessary their removal is very
simple matter. The arrangement of
the furniture" will be understood by
referring to the accompanying plan.
This, however, is only part of my
house. By trap-door we have access
to the second floor. This door is raised
by pulley and cord and held by drop
latch. In the winter this is used as a
corn crib and is perfectly rat proof.
Here, also, / keep bins in which are
corn, wheat, oats, etc.-my chicken
feed-which is measured as put in, and
thus l keep an accurate account as to
the cost of my flock. In the spring,
when the corn is largely fed, it needs
but slight sprinkling of earth and
sand and an oil stove to transform my
second floor into brooder house for
my extra early chicks. where they are
easily and economically cared for till
the weather moderates sufficiently to
a'eow the chicks to live outdoors. If
desired, a third floor can be laid over
part of the second by running boards
across on the plates. Here may be
stored the coops, your sunfiowers, cane
seeds and such other stuff as seems
scarcely to have any place of its own.
In the summer, when no longer needed
for brooder house, and nearly empty of
corn. this second floor will be very con-
venient for curing onions, moving
away sheaf oats and the thousand
other uses to which you can put space
when you have it.

when he could and did-that time W as
when his vote might mean either the
defeat or passage of a measure desired
by nearly all his constituents. Then a
high sense of duty governed his action;
uefore the nomination he could not
afford to let it.
What is quite as remarkable as his
action on the 'anti-option bill' was his
vote on the ''car-coupler bill" bill
which was the one measure before the
Fifty-second congress having the undi-
vided and earnest support of the indus
trial classes of the nation; those indus
trial classes whom the representative

posed to have money in their defeat"

Strange as it may appear to the
farmers and artisans of the Seventh

est kind of moral grounds, alike op-
posed to taxing gamblers who deter

and laying upon the railways the
grievous burthen of so constructing
their cars that regiment of railway
employees shall not be manned and
killed every fortnight by the merciless
car-coupler. 1t gratifies me to be able
to say that few men in congress
can be directly influenced by
the most unworthy appliances
and that notwithstanding the fact
that the representative of the
Seventh Kansas" voted with such at
torneys of the railways as have secured
seats in the house, to kill the car

by the railway companies of some $780,

Possibly had there been S100,00O.0OO OF
actual revenue at stake-as with the
''anti-option bill'-instead of a paltry
$50. 600. 900 in five years the other Jer-
rvs might have seen great moral light
and the coupler bill have gone the way
of the "anti-option bill" Ought not

THE TARIFF AND TRUSTS.
Erroneous Claims of the Free-Trade Dem

The trouble which has arisen over
the trusts and their securities has re-
vived the discussion as to the best
means for preventing such combine
lions. They are contrary to the laws
of the country, but the laws appear in
sufficient for the work designed for
them. The free traders are once more
claiming that the only remedy lies in
the cutting off of all protective duties,
and. assert that if it were not for pro-
lection there would be no trusts The
fact is that the strongest trusts in this
country to-day are in no way affected
by tariffs. The Standard oil and coal
combinations would not be disturbed
by change from protection to free
trade, and half dozen other trusts are
in about the same situation. A glance
at free trade England is sufficient to
show that trusts can flourish without
protection. Nowhere are these indus
trial combinations so strong as in Great
Britain, where they are not helped in
the least by customs duties. 1t might
. be well in this country to abolish the
duties on articles upon whose home pro-
duction there is a combination, but such
action would not kill the trusts, and
those who claim that it would are blind
to the facts as they appear.-Troy
Times.
