1.-THE SCIENCE OF CURING HAY.
pnCS

Notwithstanding the rapid pro
,ress that has been made in all lines
| The farmer is yet to awaken to a
| iu'l realization of the importance
oi his hay crop. l should think tina
$50 a ton ought to be sufficient in
| iucement to sit up and take notice
| The greatest nemy of hay today
| md the one feature that is retard
ing it's growth is the unwillingness
of the farmer to give it the con
sideration it deserves, or his lack
ot knowledge on this one particular
branch of farming. There is no
crop the farmer can raise that
brings him in as quick returns so
easily as well cured hay of alfalfa
neatly bailed. There are as yet a
great many farmers who have the
lesson of hay growing to learn.
The first aim in the curing of
hay is to expose it as little as pos
sible to the sun, for palatability de
creases with the icnrease of bleach
ing. 1t should be protected as much
as possible from the dampness which
takes from it the aroma and certain
other properties. The air and the
wind are the agents that will proop
erly cure hay, retaining the natural
color and sweetness. If it is over
its palatability and many of it's
leaves, but it loeses more thaa a
due amount of weight. On the other
hand. If exposed to excessive rains
alfalfa soon becomeps ractically use
less for food. Give the hay air and
wind to cure it properly, preserv-
ing the green color, the weight,
palatability, aroma and nutrition to
the highest degree.
How many times we have seen
on the market a shipment of hay
that is dry and lifeless; that has
been bleached out until it is little
and the nutrition lacking. making it
| L most unpalatable food. The best
results can be obtained by curing
ha" in the swath-just as it falls
| from the mower. This form of cur
ing has many striking advantages.
1t is not only labor saving, but it
enables the hay maker to do it SO
much more quickly and this in turn
lessons the hazards from losses OF
exposure to rain and from the over
maturing part of the crop.
The cost of curing in the swath
Is very much less than any other
form and at the same time bears
all points of advantage if properly
followed. The length of exposure
depends on the kind of crop, it's
maturity and the weather. Many
farmers permit their hay to lie on
the ground two or three days until
il has been thoroughly cured ald
then. it is either placed in stacks or
taken direct to the barn. When in
| tended for immediate sale this
handling is unnecessary and adds
to the expense as well as lessons
the value of the hay.

Rainmakers festival.

Boise, Aug. % Celebrating the
1912 anniversary of the discovery
OF irrigation and the progress of
the states of The west through the
artificial application of water to
their arid soils, the coming Festi-
val Of the Rainmakers at Boise
during the week of October 7,
bids fair to eclipse all other cele-
brations of like character ever held
in the northwest.
As regards pageantry and bril-.
liant spectacular features the com
ing festival will be rivalled by
only one other civic celebration
in the United States, that of the
Mardi Gras Of New Orleans, from
which many of the principal fea.
lures of the Boise festival are bor-
rowed.
The various committees have
decided upon lavish expenditure
in order to make each of the var
ious parades during the festival
unique and different from all
others. A corps of the best scenic
artists and decorators in the west
have been engaged to prepare the
numerous beautiful floats.
The festival will be free to all
visitors and taking place at the
same time as the big Intermoun-
tain fair gives fair visitors double
week of enjoyment and instruc.
ton.
One of the principal features of
the festival will be the nightly
carnival during which young and
old will make merry to their
hearts content. Battles of con-
fetti will be of nightly occurance,
while the carnival feature will
come to close on the last night
of the week with A magnificent
masquerade parade and carnival
ball on the mammoth dancing
floor especially constructed in |
Columbia park.
