Making Glover Hay.

Farmers differ considerably as to
how to make clover hay. OFTEN the
crop is cut too soon. If it is heavy
ard cut green i'm full blossom Il is
hard to cure without danger OF mold.
ing. I have cut clover green on Mon
day and been Obliged to leave it I'M
Gil Thursday or Friday, and even then
the heavy stems were not cured says
a writer in Baltimore American. If
the ground is wet tie plants are hard
to dry. Many times ! have cut early
so as to get a crop Of seed, and then
cut rather late, when half or more of
the heads were brown, and the late
cuttings always made the better head.
Stock ate the hay more readily also.
We sometimes salt the hay when we
put it in the NOV damp, with good re-
suits.

CULTURE OF THE ASPARAGUS.
Beds During the Hot Summer
Weather.

Asparagus is in the proper state for
cutting when the shoots are two
inches above the surface of the ground
and the top buds are close and com
pact. The shoots should be cut every
morning. All small stems should be
cut off close to the ground. Garden
ers use an asparagus knife, having a
straight, narrow, tapering blade about
six TO eight inches in length and about
an inch broad at the haft. The knife
should be sharp. Cut the shoots of
slanting, about three inches below the
surface, taking care not to wound or
break off the young shoots coming
from the same root. To have ten
der, melting asparagus, cut the shoots
when six inches high, cutting level
with the ground; the whole will then
be tender. All below the surface OF
the ground is tough and stringy. The
asparagus rows should be kept per-
fectly free from grass and weeds. Run
the cultivator between the rows and
close up the asparagus shoots by fire.
Quent cultivation and free use OF the
steel rake. The ground can be kept
mellow and the young weeds de-
stroyed without much work. If weeds
and grass become deeply rooted, the
work will be greatly increased.
The cutting should cease as soon as
the shoot appear small and weak.
Close cutting will exhaust the roots
and succeeding crops will be dimin-
ished.
