SCIENCE OF CURING HAY.
Do Not Expose Hay to the Hot Sun,
as Bleaching Decreases Quality.
Nv e p Ross.

National Crop Improvement Servicel
Notwithstanding the rapid progress
that has been made in all lines. the
farmer is yet to awaken to full real
ization Of the Importance OF his hay
crop ] should think that $40 ton
ought to be enough inducement to sit
up and take notice. The greatest
enemy Of hay today and the one fea-
ture that is retarding its growth is
the unwilingness OF the farmer to
give 1t the close consideration 1t de
serves. or his lack of knowledge on
this particular branch OF farming
There is no crop the farmer can raise
easily as well cured hay or alfalfa
neatly baled. There are as yet a great
many farmers who have the lesson OF
hay growing to learn.
Do Not Expose.
The first aim in the curing OF hay
Is to expose it as little as possible to
the sun. for palatability decreases with
the increase of bleaching. 1t should
be protected as much as possible from
the dampness which takes from II
aroma and certain other properties
The air and the wind are the agents
that will properly cure hay. retaining
the natural color and sweetness. II
It Is over sun cured, 1t will not only
lose its palatability and many Of its
leaves. but 1t loses more than due
amount Of weight. On the other hand,
II exposed to excessive rains alfalfa
soon becomes practically useless for
food Give the hay air and wind to
cure It properly. preserving the green
color, the weight, palatability, aroma
and nutrition to the highest degree.
Cure In Swath.
How many times we have seen on
the market shipment OF hay that is
dry and lifeless; that has been
beached out until It Is little more
than wood, with aroma missing and
the nutrition lacking. making 1t a
most unpalatable food. The best re-
suits can be obtained by curing hay
in the swath-just as 1t falls from the
mower. This form Of curing has many
strong and striking advantages. 1t is
not only labor saving. but 1t enables
the hay maker to do 1t much moro
quickly and this in turn lessons the
hazards from losses Of exposure TO
rain and from the over-maturing part
of the crop.
Cost Of Curing.
The cost Of curing in the swath IL
very much less than any other form
and at the same time bears all the
points of advantage II properly fol-
lowed out. The length of exposure
depends on the kind Of crop, It's ma
turity and the weather. Many farm
ers permit their hay to lie on the
ground two or three days until 1t has
been thoroughly cured and then 1t is
either placed in stacks or taken direct
to the barn. When intended for i'm.
mediate sale this handling is unneces.
sary and adds to the expense as we'll
a. lessons the value Of the hay.
