TIME OF CUTTING
CLOVER FOR
HAY.
BY R. s. SHAW,
DEAN OF THE MICHIGAN
AGRICULTURAL COL.
LEGE.

n NE of the philosophers has de-.
fined virtue as being a medium
between extremes. And so in
making good grade OF clover hay
the best Is usually procured from that
which is neither cut too early or toe
late. The most desirable time to cut
from standpoint of procuring the
largest amount Of digestible nutrients
seems to be when the plants have
just opened into full bloom. Very
early cutting is Objectionable because
Of the difficulty in curing owing to the
large amount Of water in the plant,
particularly In the stems. Under these
conditions the leaves are sure to dry
up and fall of as the result of ex-
cessive handling before the stems are
cured. The slow curing prolongs the
period of exposure to rain and dew.
The late cuttings, after blossoms have
dried up are Objectionable because CT
the less digestible character Of the
forage, which partakes OF more
woody nature, accompanied by large
losses of leaves also. For those pos
sessing large area Of clover IL becomes
necessary to make carefully prepar d
plans in order to harvest the crop in
the shortest possible time after 1t Is
first ready.

RI HERE are many growers who do

~ HERE are many growers who do
not realize the profit from their
crops that they should because
OF carelessness in picking their fruit.
In picking fruit it should be handled
like eggs. as each aud every bruise Of
OF the skin or pulp becomes a rotten
place sooner or later. The practice Of
shaking or knocking Off with po,es ap
pies and pears that are to be shipped
or stored in the cellar is a very waste
full one. Hand picking and the hand.
ling Of the fruit with extreme care Is
the only successful way.
The time CT picking influence great.
ly the quality and storing CT the fruit.
AS a rule the greener the fruit Is
when picked, the longer it will keep
and also the poorer it will be in quail
ity. With the exception of pears all
OF our common fruits reach their high.
est quality only when allowed to ripen
on the tree. If they are picked too
early they are apt to be sour, strir gy,
mealy and dry; they lack the color,
flavor and aroma of naturally ripent
fruit.
Apples may be picked when tfe are
well-colored and have reached full
size but are not yet soft Summe"
apples II allowed to soften or ripen
on the tree after they are mature are
apt to become water-cored.
Pears should be picked when the
are of full size, we'l-colored and will
snap easily from the spur, bv taking
the fruit in the hcllcw Of the hand and
bending it traight upward. Pears if
allowed to ripen on the tree eth er
become dry and stringy or rot at III
core.
Plums should be allowed TO hang on
the trees as long as possible. Wien
they are going to be shipped they are
picked when they are nearly ready for
eating. When net essay. how,v r, n
commercial growing thew may b.
picked while they ere still hard and
will color and ripen we'll in storac
When grown for home use plum
should be- allowed to ripen on the
tree.
Peaches sh' uld be picked when fully
ripe to obtain the best quality. For
shipping they are picked when of full
size, well-colored and showing the first
signs of ripeDing. To test for ripen
ing the fruit is pressed slightly wi h
the ball of the thumb and should ell
slightly springy.
Cherries are usually picked wher
they are ready to eat, but for n ark It.
ing are usually licked Just before they
ripen. II there is difficulty with ret or
birds 1t will pay the home grower also
to pick at this time.

LABOR TROUBLES

Serious Setback for Mining In

MAPIMI CAMP ALMOST Still
prominent Mining Man Says that, al
Present Low Prices of Silver and
Copper, to Raise Wages
Would be Suicidal.

New Orleans, July 11.-Mexican la,
Dor troubles, having spread to all
parts OF the republic, the mining In
dustry in Mexico is threatened with .
serious setback.
The Mapimi camp, located in the
state of Durango, has already been
forced to practically close down, &C.
ccrding to George Ross. prominent
mining man, who is connected with
the Campania Minera de Henoles, op-
Grating at Mapimi. Mr.. Ross has ar.
rived in New Orleans.
The situation Is becoming desper-
ate," said Ross, "and threatens to ex.
tend to every important camp in the
republic. At the present price Of bar
silver there is little money to be made
In mining in Mexico and a very large
amount of capital is necessary to in.
stall such modern machinery as will
make it possible to mine at small cost
OF production. With silver ard cop
per so cheap and the markets of the
world so badly overstocked, to pay in
creased wages to miners in Mexico is
almost suicidal to the companies op.
Grating there.
i know CT many mines in Mexico
that are being forced to shut down on
this account, and already the two
largest smelters in the whole republic
are idle and their furnaces for the
first time in their history are cold. I
refer to the American Smelling and
Refining comrany's plants at Chihua-
hlia and at Aguascalientes."

Win One; Lose One.

The Cambridge High School base
ball team made trip to East New
Market and Hurlock Saturday, play
ing at the former place in the morn
ing, where they succeeded in de-
featine the HIGH School team of
that town by the score of to 1, in
a game that abounded in good plays
Both teams put up a snappy article
of ball, but the Cambridge team was
too much for East New Market,
which showed lack of practise and
team work.
In the afternoon of the same day
the Cambridge boys lost their third
successive game to the Hurlock
High School team, being shut out
by them, the score being 6 to o..
The Hurlock High School has an
exceptionally good team, they play
well together, and every member
takes care of his position and
backs up his nearest neighbor. In
addition to being fast fielders, they
are good at the bat, and the pitch
er who goes into the box against
them may rest assured that he will
have to do some mighty good work
and have to have the best kind OF
fielders behind him if they do not
get some runs off of his delivery.
In addition to being good fielders
and batters, they are also fine base
runners, and keep both pitcher and
catcher constantly on the lookout
to prevent them from stealing on
them. The game Saturday was full
of good plays, but the home team
simply was not in it; they played
good ball, but were outclassed, al
though this may be partially ac-
counted for by the fact that they
had already played one game and
were tired, but this does not ac-
count for the two previous games
which they had lost to this same
team.
