Herd o, c..tI. suns.ruek.

Hicks Myers, about Is miles north.
east Of Trenton, lost II head OF fat
steers the other afternoon, says the
Boston Herald. Mr.. Meyers had
changed the steers from . shady pas.
ture to another about an eighth of a
mile away, in which there were no
trees.
His boy discovered one dead about
noon and Mr.. Meyers. on arrival at
the pasture, found the whole herd
closely punched trying to get shelter
from the burning sun in the shade
thrown by their own bodies. He cut
out all the yearlings and drove them
to another part Of the field. but too
late to get the herd to shelter before
II had fallen dead. The steers were
worth about S65 apiece, and as they
we're not insured. we're total loss.

WEIGHING BY FIGURES.
Rules for the Measurement of Hay in
Stacks.

A ton of dry hay contains all the
way from 800 to 500 cubic feet, de-
pending on the length of time it has
been stacked and its quality
The rules for measuring hay vary
in different localities, a cube of seven
feet being considered in some places
a ton and cube of eight feet being
considered ton at other places. We
would like to sell hay by the seven
foot plan and buy it by the eight foot
plan. A cube of hay eight foot each
way will contain 512 cubic feet in all.
which with the average run of hay
will come very close to ton. 1t takes
a very excellent quality of hay for a
cube of seven feet to make a ton.
The rule for estimating the num-
ber of tons in an ordinary stack is to
multiply the length in feet by the
width in feet and this by the height to
a point where the stack would be
level. This height is sometimes con-
sidered one-half the height of the
stack. The result divided by 500 will
give a very good measurement of hay,
being the number of tons in the
stack.
To estimate the contents of round
stack, says the Farmer, we multiply
the square of the distance around the
stack in yards by four times the
height in yards and point off two
places from the right and this will be
the number of cubic yards in the
stack, which divided by 20 will equal
the number of tons. For in
stance. stack measures 20 yards
around the bulge and is eight yards
high, to find the number of tons first
square the distance around the bulge
20 yards which would be 400 multiply
ing this by four times the height eight
yards, we would have 12,SG0, pointing
off two places from the right making
12s, which, divided by 20 gives 6
and 4-10 tons of hay in the stack.

TILE DRAINS.
How They Should Be Laid and a De-
vice That Will Aid.

Where there is a sufficient grade,
there is little to contend with in lay
Ing tile. From the point where the
water stands. the shortest possible
cut should be taken through the dry
land to the outlet. If, however, there
is great deal of compact blue clay
between the marsh and the desired
outlet, 1t is sometimes more economi-
cal to run the ditch around these de-
posits than to attempt to cut through
them. If the ditch is cut through
such clay, it is advisable to fill in a
layer of coarse gravel just before fill
ing in the clay. This will prevent
the finer particles of the clay from
entering and stopping up the tile.
When the land is nearly level and
it is difficult to tell just where the
ditch should be run to ''get the fall" !"
simple device can be made similar
TO the one shown. Take a 2x6, 16 feet
long. and to the middle of this bolt
an upright piece four feet long. To
