Large Hay Crop and Hay Stack.

A farmer near Corvallis, Ore, is re-
ported in the Oregonian as having
twenty-six and half acres Of what Is
called heavier dam" land, a part Of
which has been in timothy for over
seven years, last year being the sew
enth year OF cutting, and one Of the
best they ever had. The yield was
over four tons to the acre, and they
put over 100 tons in one stack, which
they sold TO Government contractor
at 50 per ton, or nearly $1,000 for the
stack. We doubt If so much was put
In one stack anywhere else in the
United States. Near the edge Of the
meadow stood two large fir trees, and
a wire was stretched between them
fifty feet from the ground, then by
ropes, pulleys and hay fork the hay
was carried TO the top Of the stack.
It Is not often that timothy will en-
dure so many years in one field, but
on strong land, not pastured or cut too
closely we can believe that it might
have done so.-Tbe Cultivator.
