The artificial production of hay Is of
comparatively inmlctn origin, lied clover
was unknown In England prior to 1633, nnd
wlilto clover win lint Introduced until the be
ginning or the eighteenth century. Our well
known timothy was first known In Europe In
17G0, nnd not until 20 years later were the
better grasses generally cultivated. In this
country timothy was first raised In Virginia,
where It originated In 1755, Orchard grass
was first grown In tho sanio State In 17(H,
and at about tills tlmo the systematic cult!
vatlou of mitst of the Improved grasses may
be said to have begun. The bay crop of this
country, as welt as that of England, as we
have seen, has been the outgrowth of tho
last hundred years. On thU side of the At
lantic It has Increased In bull: and In value
during tho last quarter of n century with
(.mating rapidity. In 1840 wo cut aud cured
in round numbers 10,000.000 tons ; In 1850,
1-1,000,600 tous; In 1800,13,000,000. In
1870 this product reached the vait aggregate
of 27,310,018 tons, an increase of more than
100 per cent, iu 20 years. Estimating it at
the exceedingly low sum of $12 a ton, It
reaches Hie enormous total value of $300,
000,000. Between cutting this vast amount of
hay when it ought to be cut, aud curing It
as it ought lobe cured, and cutting It and
curing It when and as it Is done on too many
farms, there is a dificrcuce in value of at
least $00,000,000. This sum looks frightful,
but any intelligent farmer know a ton of
timothy cut when it is coming Into bloom,
and 'cured in the most approvod way, is
worth 20 per cent, more to feed to any kind
of stock than if cut when post its maturity,
and cured In tho bap-hazard manner that
characterizes the operations of third-rate
farmers tho world over. A practice ot 30
years satisfied me that the best time to cut
the different grasses, and the best way to
cure them is as follows :
We always begin to mow clover when the
heads are one quarter turned to use an ex
pression that every farmer will understand.
Earlier than this is always better than later.
We never enter the field with tho mowing
machine until the dew is entirely off, and
then we mow until noon. As near to
the time when the dew begins to fall to use
a common expression as possible we go to
the field and turn the dry side under and
the green side up, nnd the next day, as soon
as It is fairly dry as soon as the stems are
shrunken eo that the juices are in n state of
rest and not activity we pitch it into win
rows, giving the underside of the locks n
minutes sun as we turn them over while
moving them, and then follow with the
team ; and if possible, and if the days have
been favorable, bave what is cut at 9 o'clock
one day in the barn by 2 or 3 o'clock the
next. By this process not a leaf is left in
tho field; and although it will heat perhaps
a little in the mow, especially if it is large,
and coarse, yet it will not injure ; and, on
the other band, when the time of feeding
comes it will have a most satisfactory smell,
and cattle will. eat it and thrive upon it, as
upon no other hay. As to timothy and red-
top, we always cut timothy when one-half
the heads are in full bloom, and red-top
when three-qnarters of the seed branches
have fallen away from the center stalk. As
with c'over we never cut until the dew is ofT;
and If the grass Is not too heavy, and tho
day is good; and the tedder is 1-ept at work,
we try to get in a condition to go in the barn
the following day without opening, always
beginning to cart the dryest when the sun
geU towards Its meridian, and pitching it into
the hay-rack, not in forkfuls of 50 pounds
weight, bnt taking time to open it a little,
as it goes on to the load, to -both the air and
sun. As to natural grasses we always cut a
little before maturity, and never over-dry.
If stress of weather precipitates housing
what has been cut before it is the right con
dition, a half a peck or more of common salt
to a ton, will relieve any anxiety with regard
to Injury in the mow. The country never
was as bare of hay as it is now, and so much
the more need of cutting the new crop in
season and curing it the best. R,
Relative Valnes of Corn and Pork.
There have beenvarious careful tests as to
how much pork a bushel of corn will make.
It seems to be conceded that with the best
breed of hogs and the greatest care in feed
ing, there may be certainly 8 pounds to the
bushel. With this data it is for a farmer to
know what he is doing as well as what is
best' to do. He will see at once if corn is
25 cents per bushel and bogs 6 cents, he
should sell hogs and not corn. But if corn
be 50 cents and hogs 5 cents, it is profitable
to sell corn. Corn at 45 cents and pork at
6 cents are equal. And in this way a farm
er can easily decide what to do. Or in oth
er words, find out what he can obtain for bis
corn, then multiply the price cf coin by 8
and he can nt once see which is the most
profitable. Pork ought to bo the standard
by which to ascertain the price of corn, and
not by what they will give at the railroad
station, We have said frequently that most
of farmers do not know whether they are
making or losing money, for the reason that
they do not make any effort to know what
their wheat, corn, pork or beef cost. But
wnen they have the raw material on hand
they should carefully ascertain what la best
to do with it. Aud the rule which we here
present them will solve thoquestion of what
to do with their corn. But in these calcu.
lations we mako no allowance for the poor
oreeus oi nogs or lor careless feeding or in
diflertnt quarters ior the comfort and im
provement of the animals. All these must
be taken into account. Some by a slipshod
system of feeding Wd bad treatment, do not
get 0 cents per bushel for corn. Jawa State

Salt for Cabbage.
A New Jersey gardener considers bait nee-
esaary to the development of cabbage, espe-
dally in places far from the coast. He fluds
them more crisp, of better flavor, and to keep
better when salt is used than without. He
uses it as follows : "A few days after set
ting out the plants, and when they nre damp
either after a rain, or when tho dew is on, I
take a small dish of fine salt, and walking
among the rows, sprinklo a pinch of salt on
the centre of each plant. When the leaves
begin to grow I repeat the salting ; and
when the centre of the leaves begin to form
the head I apply salt again, scattering it
over the leaves. After this I look them over
occasionally, and if I find plant that do not
head well, or appear diseased, I sprinkle, the
salt over freely. This will save all such
plants. A quart of salt is sufficient for five
hundred plants in a season, although more
can be used with safety."
Don't try to fatten your pig rapidly until
