B. Ashton's Ash- grove Farms, near Saratoga, N.X. Making hay whether the sun sees fit to shine or not is something that the Ashgrove Farms have been doing ever ,since last June with the aid of an arti- ficial dryer and electric motors. And it has been profitable. This has been an exceptionally bad year for forage crops because of the excessive rainfall, but Mr. Ashton has stored in his barns about poo tons of dried alfalfa and mixed hay of high quality, and it would seem that a fickle sun has been successfully flouted. It has been estimated that about one - IN TOUR CELLAR! WANTED—Persons to grow Mushrooms for as in cellant. Earn upwards of $25 weekly. Illustrated booklet free. Canadian Alashroont Co,. Toronto.

The artificially dried hay is highly nutritious because the leaves which become wet with rain and are easily lost in sun curing, are saved. The crop as a whole is higher in protein andfat values and lower in fibre content. After drying, the hay can be stored indefinitely without heating, sweating, fermenting or discoloring. The bale of hay—another tradition- al expression -also has passed from the picture et the Ashgrove Parole. The hay is first delivered to a cutter driven by a twenty -horsepower motor, where it is chopped into fine pieees— suitable fox later automatic handling, but forever out of the province of the bales. The amount of moisture in the e' op offers no difficulty. It is fed from the cutter to a revolving cylinder seven feet in dia.neter and twenty feet long. At one end of this drum is an oil fureact,. and the hay and hot cur are drawn through the cylinder, er dryer, by an exhaust fan located et the outlet end. The dried hay is then delivered to a collector, from which it is fed to a blower and blown dinette into the snow in the barn. On the Ashgrove Farms part of the mater a. from the collector was bag. ged as it epee home from the dryer and trucked to the stain hare, a half mile away, where it was then blears into the mow, tate blower taking the place of the traditional )taw carrier As a rule, the arlifieial arytng r:t't• enine is tet up as near the center of the hayfletiic as poSsibie, so that the wet forage need be lutuled a very short d.stanee. the hauling operation after dryinr; is considerably easier, as tee dry hay weighs about one-third as snuck as in the preliminary stage. An- other advantage derived from this chopping and drying process -is that th whole crop is devoured by the cat- tle when it Is cut up, and no stalks are left. The dried hay retains its natur- al green coke.

It is 996 feet tong and 12 feet 1 inch in diameter. Monolithic reinforced concrete .was used in the construction of 444 feet, and the remaining made of steel pipe, the materials consisting of 2,080 cubic yards of cement, aggregate and dia- tomaceous silica and 315,000 pounds of reinforced steel. The capacity of the siphon is 1,115 feet per second.

"Well, we usually do get down to auction," I admitted. "Oh, then, do please start at once," begged' Aunt Lucy. "I shallbe quite all right" "But won't you play, dear?" my wife urged her. "No, thank you, In7 dear," replied Aunt Lucy, "I'm not , very fond of cards, i shall bo quite happy. Now,. sit down and begin your game, and please dont bother . in the slightest about me." Of course we demurred, but Aunt Lucy was quite determined. She as- sured us that it would make her quite uncomfortable if we didn't start 'flee- ing at once. Indeed, she was manifest ly so perturbed by the idea that her Presence wasaffecting our customs and amusements that, In the end, we consented to make up our game. ."That's right!" sighed Aunt Lucy, with satisfaction. "You know I do de- test being a hindrance in any way." "Well, what will you do?" I asked her. "What about listening In to the wireless for a bit? I'll tune Ill for you, strait i?" "Olt, please don't bather. i1 realty doesn't matter about'ase. Start your game, and Iel sit hero eneoying the fire." However, knowing that Aunt Lucy had a fondness for the wireless, I disregarded her protests and insisted that the radio should be turned ou for her. • "Well, It's very kind of you, my dear,' she surrendered. "But 1 don't like giving you the trouble. If only I knew anything at all about the wire- less, I could start it for myself, with- out troulbieg you, could I? But I won't have tate loud -speaker on. That would be tar too disturbing to you." So I looked up a good programme for her, tuned it in, and handed iter the 'phones, She adjusted them, nod ded her pleasure in the clear recept- tion she was getting, and disposed herself to enjoy the programme. My wife, the Thorntons, and myself sat down. to our cards. I always be- lieve ill concentrating thoroughly on every point, f hold that a good player should consider, with the closest de- liberation, all the while. Thorn- ton, too, takes his time, but then !re's one of those uniteceseal'tty slow players, So we tour usually play te pretty tense game. For perhaps twenty minutes the room was hushed, save during tine -bid- ding.

"Eh, what?" exclaimed Thornton, blinking at iter. "Oh, 5 beg your par- don, You were saying—?" "I've just been ltsteuing to a most delightful Song," replied Aunt Lucy. We murmured vaguely to the effect that we were glad, and returned our attention to aur cards, A minute later Amit Lucy began to chuckle very sottly, "Really, most amusing," she mur- mured, She conthtued to emit a ehudde at irregular intervals for some white Ilistinetiy, it was disturbing to us, Ono kept waiting for the next chuckle, so to Speak.
