 At present a large part of the nata, grass hay is put in stacks when hauled from the field. In many cases this cannot be avoided, but 1t Is much safer to store 1t in a barn or under a shed. When stacked. there is always consid- erable loss from teaching and bleach ing on the outside of the stack. loss which may be almost wholly prevent ed when the hay Is protected from the weather. The sweating and final cur ing are much more even when com pleted in a now. and so a better quail ity of hay is secured than is possible from an exposed stack.
 The hay should remain in the now until 1t goes through a sweat, as this develops a sweeter aroma in the hay and makes 1t safe from heating and molding in the bale. The degree of heat developed in this sweating will depend very largely on the amount of moisture in the hay. Ii the hay Is put in the mow before 1t is well air-cured. the heat may be excessive and the hay discolored.

The moving of natal grass should sf the seed begins to ripen. If the weather should be unfavorable at that time it can stand several days with uut great injury, as it is making n continuous growth of new shoots. When the cutting is delayed too long the shattering of the seeds and by the tlrying-up and breaking-off of the older stems. The greatest loss from delaying the cuttings too long is the consequent postponement of the sub seQuent cuttings. To secure the great hay of the highest quality. all of the earlier cuttings should be made as soon as the grass Is in proper condi- tion. though the last cutting may be delayed until few days before frost Is expected, as the grass Is growing rapidly at that time and the late cut ung insures good supply oi seed oii the ground for the following spring.
 The grass dries so quickly that it should be allowed 10 lie on the ground only short time. Unnecessarily long exposure bleaches the hay and makes 1t less palatable. less nutritious, and less salable.

 safety first for the pork chop" Is the watchworl with the many farm CTS who are now taking precautions against losses from hog cholera. The only reliable treatment and preventive for this disease is the antihog cholera serum discovered by government off, cials and known as the Dorset-Niles serum.
 The many ways in which cholera may be carried from one herd to an- other makes it imperative that hogs in infected territory be vaccinated as early as possible after the disease is discovered. If q competent graduate veterinarian is to he had. the serum simultaneous method may be used. by which the hog Is inimunized for life.
 In the interval after the disease is discovered and before the serum may he obtained. a knowledge of the means by which 1t is transmitted may help in some measure to prevent it's spread BuZzards are the principal carriers. but pigeons and other birds eating aft CT the sick hogs. men walking through infected pastures, dogs digging up buried carcaSSes, creeks running through pastures containing diseased hogs, insects. dust, and many other means furnish transportation. The following suggestions may help in con trolling the disease:
 Write to your veterinarian. Burn or bury all hogs dying of cholera so deep that dogs cannot dig them up. Keep hogs away from running streams that are likely to carry infection. Keep people who have been infected out of hog pastures. Kill the buzzards.

NEW YORK, May 27.-The whining

struck this community in two highly

highly contagious. has now spread
from the amazed Giants to the equally
amazed Yanks.
The Yanks hung up their fifth purple
banner today before $4,000 people,
when Ray Keating downed Babe Ruth
by the count of 4 to 2.
The foundering Red SoX were crush
ed for the third time by two early as
saults that found big openings. They
came near breaking up the jubilee in
the first inning, when they filled the
bases on Ruth with nobody out. Gill
hooley arrived on Jaavrin's tumble.
Lee Magee maced clean blow to the
outfield. sending Gil on a gallop to
third. Gedeon topped one near the
box. and Gilhooley outfoxed the visit
ing defense by drawing the throw to
third and beating it by step. With
while Gilhooley scored. Pipp then
tapped to the box, and in the scramble
that followed Magee was thrown out
and Baumann caught between second
and third, for double play.
The second inning landed with a
thud athwart the Red Sox's sun-blis-
tered necks. Boone walked and High
singled. AS Walters famed, Boone
and High pumped through a double
steal. although Larry Gardner had the
ball ten feet in advance of Boone's

allowed only one base hit, a single by
Ruth. until the fifth, when the. husky
Babe singled again. Hooper lifted one
against the right field stand, which
Gilhooley held for half breath,
dropping the ball when he thumped
against the wood. 1t looked as if Ruth
was forced at second on the play. but
Umpire OLoughlin was facing the op-
