Curing Hay.

turing HAY
A heavy crop of grass requires more
time for curing than a poor one, as
more water must be eliminated, and
the hay should not be allowed to be-
come dark. If cut as soon as the dew
Is off the ground, and SHOOK up" by
the tedder in the afternoon, after the
sun is we'll up the next day the hay
may be punched, not making too large
punches, which may remain from one
to three days, according to the wealth
er. 1t will not injure the grass If rain
falls on it before it is cured after cut
ting, but after it has dried it should
be gotten into the NOW as soon as the
hay is ready. Twist q bunch Of hay,
and If 1t breaks off well 1t may be
hauled. The best hay is that which is
air-dried rather than dried entirely by
the sun; hence the use Of the tedder,
which keeps the hay loose and turned
over for the air, is very favorable to
the proper curing Of the hay.

nc Peanut Trade.

Peanuts have become an important
article of American foreign commerce
in the last six years, especially on the
import side, in spite of the fact that we
produce about 100000 bushels a year.
Peanut imports have grown in value
from $4,000 in 1900 to $4,000 this
year, while our exports thereof will ap-
prOximate 100000. When this fiscal
year closes we shall have to list pea
nuts for nearly 100000 of our total
foreign commerce for the year, accord
ing to the Bureau of Statistics of the
Department of Commerce and Labor.
The peanut acreage in this country
increased 100 Per cent and production
233 per cent between 1890 and 1900.
There are under cultivation now 517,-
600 acres, producing 1,905, 900 bushels.
The crop is concentrated in a few
Southern States, Virginia supplying
one-third of 1t, North Carolina another
York Sun.
