•
It may be necessary to revise
some of the present practices, such
as curing the hay in the cock and
follow windrow -curing. Where wea-
ther is tricky it may be advisable
to utilize tripods for the early haying
operations. Early cutting means the
hay will be higher in protein through
it may lack a little in bulk. By com-
mencing haying operations early it
will compensate to some extent for
the manpower shortage. Where large
lofts are available it may be possible
to spread out and salt the hay. FaIl
advantage of the long days should be
taken and the work arranged accord-
ingly. Daylight saving hours do not
work to farmers advantage as it is
usually well on towards noon before
the dew is off. By co-operating with
neighbours a program that will be
mutually beneficial to all concerned
can be worked out.
MAN'S DESIRE
Deep in the :heart of every man
There lies some secret hidden plan,
Some great desire that's still a dream
Built on the ash of other schemes,
That failed because the Fates had

In dreams to ,see a future .bright,
There's little doubt but very soon.
