(Written for The News -Record.' 0101 In a. recent articleI tailed attene tien•t0the desirability of cutting hay et :a cotr.parativcly'early age of ins-' turity. lit this connection it may be of •interest to have some notes from .that well known' farmer •and Institute speaker; Mr. Mr. Henry. • Glendenning 'of Manilla, Ont., hi •regard to his ex- periences with a new • plan of curing clover hay. • M1r. 'Glendenning says that lie. prefers• to cut clover hay when it is in: full 'bloom •or whet the bfos son contains• the greatest amount of honey Cut "in .tile morning after the dew • is : off, 'that. • which is 'cut • in the: •forenoon':nay be raked up:immediate- • ly after • the noon hour and :.put cocks.• The mower :tliould'.not be run later than four.. o'clock pe tn., .and all put. into cocks .before the dew falls. ,'1,his hay should he ptit into 'rite barn next • days acid well tramped into, the Mows. • 'L'lris plan can be continued from clay to day' ural all is stored in the•barns. T']tree things must be•borne .in mind in curing 'hay by.' this. meth- od ': First; •do ties •cut the grass until • dry in the monung. ; .'second, do not allow .0e—freak cut hay to lie on .the 'glutted r uetrd over n.;,Ttt exposed to .clew er • rat third, if • an hay1 ntot shouldget , ,Y wet with rain . a t Ieit .it stand in the, cocks until thoroughly dry before tak ,:rig: to the barn. Last, season Mr. Glendenning put: up ';erne 75. to 8o tons, of hay in • this sway. and reports .that ,it came out .of .the inows in the finest condition lee ever saw:: It was as green as when pint into the barn and the leaves and llosso.us • were all attached to the .,talks. It appeared to have dried- out • without enrich heating,' its: all of • the • a:sike , bins oms.were pink and . the red clover lilossorns• were from a pink. to a light amber .color. If any great heat had developed in the mew the • blossoms • would uriclouhtedly have been of a dark brown color. 'No signs of . mould were •visible and the hay was •very • ;free from dust. No salt, lime or other pieservative'was us:d. Two of the mows in which • the hay was. stored are 22x25 feet, with an average depth of 3o feet of hay. These Mows are • tight floored with double inch .boards over basement •stables. Another • mow is 24x36 feet and the flo:tr on the ground. 'T 'he outside of all the stows are of ditch boards 'with battens,; cracks be- tween the. boards. averaging, about •three eighths of an inch,. just such as are usually found in the .ordinary barn. The sides of the mows 'beet the :drive floor were open. The hay, which .con- sisted of red clover, alsike and u' little tier othy, .Was ,equally goad in all parts of the .mows.' Mr, Glendetming says that he knows of three other fanners who have followed this sys- tem for several years with equal suc- cess and it would• seem well worthy of .trial by our farmers generally,. mMeth- odAmong the advantages 'of this 051:. od 'of curing clover are :. 1, the sav- ing of time between cutting 'end stor- ing r in•the barn ;2, the fact that all of the leaves Coldblossoins, which ate the • most valuable portion of the plarrt, are left on the hay instead of being lost in the Geld as is often the ease when the ordinary manner of cur- ing is followed ; 3, the hay is titteh cleaner and brighter than when cured in the old way, W. HODSON, Live Stock. Commissioner, ADVICR TO WOOL GROWERS. (Given by a local wool buyer.) As shearing time approaches it would be to the advantage of farmers to pay attention to the following points : Wash all wool on sheep as unwashed wool is going to be eery low in price.
