THE CURING OF HAY.
Some Reasons Why the Best Quality
Has Necessarily to BE Made
In the Shade.

Every year there are many ques.
tions about curing hay Early-cus
grass contains more moisture than
that which stands until dead ripe, and is
harder to cure. Hay is grass with
the water taken out of it. The water
is removed by the wind-a hot breeze
while tho sun is shining giving ideal
haymalling conditions. The easiest
way for the water to be taken from
the plant is through the leaves.
When these leaves are dried and
killed first of all there will be con.
siderable water left in the stem. and
this will move out very slowly. When
the leaves are LETT fresh, they suck on
pump the water rapidly from the
stem. and thus dry it quickly. Cut
down two trees in full leaf. From
one take every green leaf at oncu
and let the leaves on the other slow.
ly wither and die. You will find he
first tree wet and soggy. while tho
other is dry having been sucked or
pumped by the leaves. These things
explain Why the best hay is made in
the shade. The leaves are not with
cred. but keep on pumping water
from the stems and Sweating" is
out. Glover especially is best cured
IN the cock Its thin. broad leaves
are quickly wilted in the hot sun,
while in the pile they keep at work.
We must remember that some sam
pies OF earlycut clover contain over
1000 pounds of water in every tor
and that $500 pounds of the waite,
must be taken out in short time.
One reason why the teclder makes
such 4 useful hay tool is that i,
breaks the stem and gives the water
a chance to escape.-Rural New
Yorker.

the bottom boards are apt to work out
of place and the side boards to fall
down at the least provocation. 1t is
best to go to a little more trouble and
arrange the boards as illustrated in
Fig. l. Use the required number of
boards. planed on edges, to suit space
between standards and nail or screw
to two or three crosspieces to hold
them in place. Hinge the boards at
side so as to stand up supported by
the standards when on the wagon and
fold up when not in use. Or the hinges
may be put on on the outside, having

sideboards will then turn out instead
