IrtY AND HAY MAKING.
Dr. Homes of the Maine Far;,(er,
very truly remarks in relation to this
subject, " that the g-ras3 crop is one of
•• the Most impOrtant, if not the most
important to the fanner, and the
:• making or curing the grass is an op
eration upon which turns, after all,
" much the value of the crop. A short
growth, if well prepared, is more
valuable than an abundant one spoiled
•• by an imlroper management in
" making ."
The hay crop may well be consid
ered as one of great importance to the
agriculturist, being one of the princi
pal products of the farm, and the one
on which he relies for the sustenance
of his live stock during the winter,
and a considerable p,,rtion of the fall
and spring.
Yet while all concur in regarding
crop of pritn. - : consequence, there
but very f:!tv, comparatively ;Teak
%-lig) adopt the s;.nw moles of
rutting and proservingit. We know,
indeed, of no subje:' embraced in the
routine of agricul:•.-al itngrossments,
on which there is .•11 a greater dis
crepancy of opinion and practice. It
is important that some general system
should be adopted.as well in the man
agement of this crop as in that of
grain, at least so far as regards the
time and manner of cutting and se
curing the product. A late writer, in
some judicious reflections' upon the
importance of this crop says :—" that
mole which will secure as much of
tire natural juices as possible, and in
the cheapest practical manlier, is the
one 1 have endeavored to attain.—

Flitting and securing our hay, it au

acre. In this section of the remarry
tile lauds are principally of clay, and
are quite free from stones. We lose
tell times limre out of hay by cutting
too late than ton early. Many let their
clover and herds-grass stand till the
seeds a1 : 42 tips, and of consequence the
stems become hard and wiry ; a good
share of the leaves have changed to a
brownish state, and thel natural sap has
!eft the plant."
In cutting most, - perhaps all kinds
,f grass, we think that the proper pe
riod is that, when the whole system
having attained its maximum develop
ment, the flowers have unfolded, and
when there is a large flow of rich and
accharinejuice in the stalks and leaves,
Some species of grass, it is true,
increase somewhat in bulk atter
influr
srcencc, but with the majority of
plants used fir hay, the development
of the flower indicates, with sufficient
accuracy, the attainment of their max
imitin excellence, and the time when
they may perhaps be most
.economi
cally cut. The article above quoted
says:
To get at the most proper time fin•
cutting, let us inquire what rule the
gatherer of herbs adopts in filling his
medicine chest, or the distiller his
plants. In collecting herbs and plants,
they cut them as soon as . th 4 come
into flower. At this period they con
tain all their uselbl qualities, and by
cutting at this period they secure the
greatest quantity of oil ; but herbs
that are cut at this period and dried
in the sun, lose much more of their In
vigorating and essential qualities than
they do if dried in the shade. Plants
of all sorts, if they are cut in full vig
or, and afterwards carfully dried, with
out any waste of their natural juices,
either by bleaching with rain or evap
orating in the sun, contain a quantity of
nourishing-matter nearly double what
they do when allowed to . attain their
full growth and make sonic progress
toward decay. :When mowing is de
layed, as it very frequently . is, till an
advanced period of the season, when
plants have not "only reached their ul
timate growth, but begin to decay, this
description of.herbage must become
tasteless, dry, tough, and less nourish
ing. Also over care in drying in the
hot sun, by bleaching the juices of the
early grasses, must produce a similar
kind of fodder."
In curing clover hay, the' principal-

value of which consists in the heds
and foliage, we have observed; that
when cut early and cured "grass cock,"
as it- is called, the hay possessed a
much more brilliant and beautiful ap
peasance- than the same quality of
grass, cut at the same time, and cured
in the open air, or under a free ex
posure often for a protracted- period
to the sun. By cutting this grass when
the crop is iu full blosom, allowing it
to remain in the swath the first day
after mowing, till nearly night, and
then turning it carfully with a Birk so
as to expose a fresh and unwilted Sur
face to the .dews, and cocking it in the
afternoon of the second day, in small
compact cocks, of about eighty pounds
of unmade hay, to the cock, it will
make evenly and thoroughly, and may
be pitched and even trodden down in
a mow without being deprived of its
heads and finer leaves. - The color
will be a most beautiful green, and the
flowers will be almost as fresh in color
as when cut. After cocking, let the
weather be fair or foul, no .opening or
turning, (unless in case of.a protracted
storm,) of the " g rass cocks'," should
be allowed. It is' unnecessary, -4 the
hay will " cure" completely through,
and the outside, when saturated with
water, will soon dry off, and effect no
harm whatever to the hay. You will
never see mouldy hay, if this method
is adopted in " making" or curing it.
In forming grass cocks, the fork is
preferable to the rake, which is of ser
vice only in gathering up the scatter
ings, and reg-ulating the size and shape
of the cock.—N. E. Farmer.
TRY EXPERIMENTS.-If every far
mer would appropriate a small por
tion of his farm every year to experi
mental farming, great benefit could
not fail to result from the practice; I
know a farmer, who for many years
has used plaster on his corn land
liberally, and, as he supposed to great
advantage. Last season he left un
plastered through the middlo ‘4' his
field, and to another he'applied leached
ashes. The row to which the leached
ashes was applied, was the only one
that looked and that yielded better
than the one to which no application
was made. On many soils, ashes are
of much more value than plaster, and
farmers should try every kind of fer
tilizer, before they adopt the use of
one.—Rural Nor-Yorker.
,
An agriculturist who has tried the
experiment satisfactorily, says that a
few seeds of the tomato dropped into
the hill with cucumbers; or a tomato
set out, which he says is the better
mode, will keep off the black fleas and
striped bugs, as they dislike the flavor
of the tomato.
ONLY TWO OF US
" I 've made an engagement for yoU
to spend a day out this week," ob
served Lawyer Crosby, as his wife
was placing dinner upon the table.
"Have you ? I tim sorry, for I fear
I shall be too busy to fulfill it, she re
joined, in a slight tone of ,regret.
"Busy about what ?" testily ex
claimed the speaker. "I would re
spectfully inquire, fur somewhat less
than the hundredth time, what you can
possibly find to . do'? It seems to me
that you must really suffer from want
of exercise."
"I do, undoubtedly, said Mrs
Crosby, drily.
" It can't he otherwise," continued
the lawyer, decidedly. -"It is com
paratively idle life tbr a woman to
attend to a few household cares."
"A few household cares-1"
" Yes, my dear Mrs.
,Crosby,. and
the washing put into the bargain.
What a laborious business !" Lawyer
Crosby looked very wise, and spoke
with a slight degree of irony.
"You talk like one who is unac
quainted with his . subject; but at the
same time I am willing to allow that
you know as much about it - as the
generality of men; and thiit can't be
construed into a compliment to the
Selz, by - any means."
" But is n't the fact a self-evident
one; Mrs. Crosby'? Have n't I eyes,
and can't I see—observe—look about
n comprehend ?" demanded the
lawyer.
" You might, without doubt; but
whetheryou do, is another thing,"
rejoined his wife.
" Be that - as. it may, however, I am
satisfied that I call find enough to do
to keep me out-of idleness."
"When there 'a only two of us?"
"Only two of us," added Mrs. Cros
by quietly; "for it is just as necessary
that two should eat as four."
" Well, it certainly must be a great
undertaking to cook a little food, wash
a few dishes; and lay the table three
times a•day ! Why, I could accom
plish the whole of it in. less time than
two hours!" •
DEVOTED TO THE PRINCIPLES OF DEMOCRACY, AND THE DISSEMINATION OF Mi;RALITV LITERATURE, AND NEWS
BY MRS. ROBINSON
COUDERSPORT, POTTER COUNTY, PA., AMY 7, 1854.
"Those duties you have named do
not comprise the whole of housekeep
ing, Mr. Crosby."
"Perhaps not; I shouldn't -mind
throwing in a little dusting and sweep
ing, once in a while. But it certainly
appears laughable to hear a woman
complain of the work ' when there .is
only two in the family. I _verily be
lieve it 's nothing but habit," quoth the
lawyer, with becoming gravity.
"Suppose you try it for, one day,"
proposed Mrs:Crosby, with like seri
ousness. "1 'll go to the office and do
your work, and you can-remain at
home and do miue."
"It 's rather. a novel proposition,
and I do n't at this time recall to mind
any celebrated men who have done
housework. I have n't the least ob
jection to trying it, notwithstanding - ,
and presume it will be the easiest day's
work I shall have this, year," rejOined
the husband.
Both being agreed, the next day
was selected for the exchange of em
ployments. A quiet smile lurked upon
Mrs. Crosby's mouth, and the lawyer
evidently thought it a fine joke; one
which would afford him a large fund
of merriment and be the means of
proving to his wife that housework
was nothing more than a pleasant .
amusement.
The deluded woman thought her
time was fully occupied in keeping a
'good-sized house tidy, and in devising
new means of gratifying the palate of
the lawyer; .who, strange to say, liked
good food, and abundance of it. He
seemed to think that this jumped upon
the table ready cooked, and that Mrs.
Crosby (or some other person) had
but to utter a few magical words, and
everything was done. -.But to hear
these trifling duties termed enormous,
when there was "only two of theni"
to look after, seemed a great absurdity ,
to Lawyer Crosby, and he inwardly
resolved to write an article (in the
subject, and let the
.sterner sex know
how.much they were imposed upon:
While reneud,, upon
determination, Mrs. Crosby bad occu
pied herself in jotting down a list of
the duties which demanded attention
the next morning. This she folded
and quietly handed to her husband,
requesting him to make out a similar
paper, so that no mismanagement
might ensue.
"The list is no longer than usual,"
said the lady, smiling at the earnest
ness with which he surveyed it. "I
go through with the same performance
every day. It is necessary, for they
cannot be omitted. But do n't be
frightened; you can take your own
time," she added, in a bantering tone.
Feigning the utmost indifference to
the results, he remarked that he should
probably 'make quick work of it,' and
placing the paper in his pocket, re
turned to his office.
The liege lord of Mr l, Crosby prac
tised law in a suburbailiown, and had
acquired considerable property by the
same. His wife had independence
enough to do her own housework, but
could not help thinking that she de
served some credit for so doing. She
had no particular desire to be praised;
'justice where justice is due,' - was her
motto; and our readers will doubtless
coincide with her in the belief that it
was rather bard to work busily a
whole m6rning, and then be told that
'she had done nothing Nmparatively.'
It was not encouragint to . say the
least, and she awaited the experiment
of the next day with much interest.
Morning came,- and the lawyer
aroused his wife, and informed her in
in a significant tone 'that it was quite.
time to dress and make a fire.' Mrs.
Crosby did not wait for a second bid
ding, but. remarked as she left the
chamber; 'that he might put himself
in readiness to see about breakfast.'
Our heroine had taken- the precau
tion the night previous to prepare the
kindlings, and in a short time had a
brisk fire. She allowed herself to do
just what her Husband had Veil in the
habit of doing, and no more. He
usually left the cbal dust and cinders
for her to sift and clear away, as well
as the remnants of wood and shavings
to pick up; and she did n't feel in
clined to limit his privileges at this
time. The dining table stood in the
middle of the room, covered with
books, papers, writing materials, and
other articles usedthe evening before,
These -she did not molest, and without
pulling up the shades or putting back
the chairs, she took a newspaper and
began to read.
The lawyer had evidently com
pleted`iiis toilet quicker than common,
hut it was nevertheless nearly an hour
before he made his appearance. It
was something novel to see his wife.
reading before breakfast, and he could
not help - smiling to witness her perfect
sang froid.
"I've been up a long time, and
renewed the fire twice Mr. Crosby,"
she remarked, without looking up.
This was" thelawyer's favorite salu-
tation when his wife happened to take
an extra nap of five minutes.
The gentleman made no reply, for
he understood what the remark meant
without the aid of an interpreter. He
proceeded to business with great alac
rity, piling the books and papers upon
chairs, and nearly spilling some oil, by
carrying a lamp the wrong way, and,
'by allowing • the kettle to boil over,
some five minutes befoye he got ready
to take it out, he succeeded iu getting
the clOth laid, though in rather , an
aivkward manner.
I.‘l think I. should relish a piece of
beef steak," remarked the lady in the.
rocking chair. . • -
"Ali,.then you shall have' it," re
plied the housekeeper of the day,
patronisingly, as he busied himself
with napkins, cups,' saucers, , plates,
knives, forks, etc. • He tried to recol
lect how Mrs. Crosby arranged them,
but in spite of all his attempts, he
could make no application to that lady
for advice, as she was apparently ab
sorbed in her reading. -
Adjoining to the kitchen, the-lawyer
attended to the.making of 'a delicious
cup of coffee, ,d had a lonffstruggle
of beefsteak, ivhich refused t 'broil
_to
his satisfaction. When retuning to
the dining-room, after a long bsence,
looking heated and inipatiel t, . Mrs.
Crosby re marked,c onsulting her watch,
'that he had been absent'long enough
to make a beefsteak.'
This observation the laWyer re
membered to have heard betbre, but
he did not make it apparent.. At
length the cone . and meat, were
brought in, and . all things were pro
nounced ready by the officiating mas
ter of ceremonies.
Mrs. Crosby seated herself and be
gan to carve; the lawyer took his
place, at the head of the table, and
proceeded to pour'Out the co&e.
"The bread, Mr. Crosby," sug
gested the lady.
" Bless me, I forgot . it, he exclaimed,
dropping the coffee-pot, and - jumping
up so hastily that he came very near
overturning the table.
The bread was soon procured, cut
in slices varying in thickness fiom a
wafer to n chunk of four inches.
‘,‘-'l'he butter, Mr. Crosby," sug
gested his. companion, when he was
again fairly seated. • •
‘.‘ I declare—what a poor memory")
have got!'-' And setting down a cup
which he had taken up for the second
tithe, he started for the missing article.
Placing it in triumph bt...itle his wife's
plate, he renewed his attempts at cof
leq-pouring, and this time was suc
cessful; but it must 1- epufessed that
be eyed the dark-lor,;_:ag beverage .
'with some uncertainty as he passed it
across the table.
"Muddy coffee again, Mr. Crosby!"
ablruptly said the lady.
riThe,lawyer bad 'lit a word of reply.
," Verysmoky beefsteak, my dear!
what have you done to it. ?" she con
tinued, pushing a large piece of the
obnoxious article on one side of her
plate. " You must be extremely care
leSs; or such things couldn't happen
so; often as they do!" .
.
.;•' What a woman this is to remem
ber, to be sure! Anybody would-sup
pose she had kept a diary of my
unlucky observations for a year. 'Why,
she has them all at her tongue's end!"
.thought the individual addressed, tho'
he did n't see fit to make any imme
diate rejoinder.
,The lawyer had but little appetite ;
his wife remarked the fact, and hoped
`that the simple exercise of getting
breakfast' had not taken it away; as
one person who sbould be nameless
was in the habit of asserting. •
I,The gentleman winced, and pre-
Pared himself a generous slice of bread
and butter, which he proceeded to
dispose of as"though he had lacked
fbod for weeks.
•i When the , morning meal was con
cluded, Mrs. Crosby donned her bon
net and shawl, and remarking that she
would send home the dinner, left the
house. Our hero *as now alone, and
could carry on operations without an
eye-witness; which be observed was
much more pleasant:-
"Now we 'II consult tlie list," be
added, &wad,. "and have things go on
in regular order. Here goes: 'Get
breakfast, *clear' table, wash dishes,
put closets in order, wipe down shelves,
clean . shelves, clean knives, - clean sink,
rub silver, black stove, keep fire, at
tendthe door bell, sweep ball, brush
stairs, sweep parlor, dining-room and
kitchen, dust furniture, trim lamps, do
chamber work, wash meat for oven,
clean vegetables, stew cranberries,
make pudding, and entertain visitors,
if they bappent to call.'
"Bless, me, is that all 1" cried our
housekeeper. "I call that making a
a great fuss about a little matter. It
Sounds larger than it really is. I think
11l clear the table, to begin with, as
that is put down next.
• So at it he went, knocking things
hither and thither, at a great hazard of
their demolishment. As the idea didn't
occur to .him that he should carry, a
waiter full of articles at a time, he
made a great many journeys between
the dining-roam - and kitchen, which
necessarily consume& considerable
time. The dish-washing proved rather
an . awkward - affair, and did n't pro
gress so rapidly as he could. have
wished. He could n't wipe the cups
handily, the saucers seemed bungling,
and the plates would slip' back into
the water; but after breaking a cut
glass tumbler, (which he felt certain
of Matching the next day,) knocking
a large piece out of a
. platter, (which
h& resolved, to paste together while
dinner was cooking;) and cracking u
pet . diSh of his wife's while setting up
a pile of plates, the matter was brought
to a close.. The knife-cleaning was an
other thing altogether; there would n't
be any danger of breakages, and he
could put 'em through' quick. But
the black spots were
. deeper seated
than lie imagined, and required the
exhibition of more elbow grease'
than he. had any idea of. He con
tended longest with the carving knife,
which, in consequence of being 'awk
wardly handled, inflicted a deep cut,
as a token of remembrance. This wa
a mistake that caused many other mis
takes during the day, owing undoubt
edly to the clumsy bandage which the
lawyer wrapped about his hand.
It may„be well remarked that the
aforesaid list was laid carefully in a
conspicuous position, and frequently
referred, to. He attended to the sil
ver, and then glanced at the clock.
The hands pointed to an hour which
admonished him that 'time waited for
no man,' and had no sympathy for
inexerienced housekeepers.
"'What's next on the docket, I
wonder?" lie thought, consulting his
Memorandum.. "Ah, s,tove: to black!
Well, I must admit that the coffee
which boiled over has n't improved its
appearance much. I'll look up the
brush." . .
So saying. he prepared the Poll
and set about • the operation at once.
The stove was quite hot, and he
could n't work to any, advantage. The
more liquid he put on, the more it
would sputter and ily off with a crack
ling noise. He thickened the liquid,
but it would not adhere to the - stove,
and he began to think it was be
witched. .
'At this stage of affairs he 'happened !,
to recollect that somebody had said
that milk was the best thing to wet
the powder with; so he hastened to
the pantry, and pouring out a quantity,
applied it to the refractory stove.
That did n't mend the matter much,
•and the srriol of burned milk began to
be quite_diSagreeable. The room was
filled with smoke, the floor around the
Stove was dotted with little spots of
blacking, and the lawyer's hands were
certainly not the cleanest that ever
was, when a violent ring of the bell
resounded through the house, making
our hero start as though he had been
surprised in some dishonorable act.
He looked towards the door, then
at his hands, and finally at a large
stain on his shirt. bosom, which bore a
strong resemblance to blacking.
"I won't go; they may ring all day
if they like!" lie exclaimed, impa
tiently, going to the wash-basin and
trying to bring his hands to the accus
tomed color; but a second ring warned
him that some person without was not
inclined 'to give it up so.' •
Confound that tintinabula! I sup
pose it 's some old man ibr boots,
clothes,, grease, or rags. If he does
it again I'll bring a suit of assault and
battery!" cried our incipient house
keeper, making a few desperate dashes
at the dish-cloth, which lie mistook fin-
the towel, and hurrying towards the
door, which he opened with a trem
bling hand:
• "Ali, good morning, lawyer!" said
a well-dressed, good-looking young
lady, who evidently expected to see
somebody else appear.. "Is Mrs-Cros
by in?' •
" Yes—l—no, she is n't in,' he stam
mered; for to tell the truth, the law
yer was 'thinking more of his personal
appearance than . his wife's absence;
besides, he imagined that the young
lady looked at him with some curios
ity, and this embaraassed him the more.
Now it must be observed that our
hero was remarkable for the neatness
of his dress, and the stain upon his
linen assumed enormous dimensions
under the searching glance of his vis
itor. He dropped .his eyes, and for
got. the stain in contemplating his
sooty hands.
• "Excuse the disorder of my dress
this morning, Miss Haynes," he added.
"I was so unfortunate as to upset the
inkstand just as you rang, and you see
the effects of the accident."
This it must be confessed, was
rather a departure froin the truth.
But the la.wyer,sauldn't think Of any
other way to excuse himself from the
dilemma; and he was not disposed to
confess the exact state of the case to
his fair-eyed friend, who, after making
a few commonplace remarks, took her
leave.
" What an ingenious excuse that
was!- Nobody but a lawyer would
have thougla of it," soliloquized our
hero, glancing complacently in a mir
ror pertaining to the hat tree. Imag- .
hie his mortification at• discerning a
Nark streak across his face, which
gave it a most ludicrous aspect. No
wonder_the young lady looked at him
with 'curiosity, for nothing probably
but good manners restrained her from
a hearty - laugh. :f-
Lawyer Crosby went.ba4 to the
kitchen with a Slow step. TO his ut-
ter astonishment It was twelve o'clock,
and he had quite forgotten dinner.
The lire was entirely out, the room
was in a sad plight, the list of duties
not half completed, and the meat, yeg
etablos etc., remained untouched.
His zeal had cooled amazingly
~ i tice morning, and he half-repented
acceding to his' wife's proposition.
He had expected every moment tom)
her enter, express herself satisfied
Nvith the experiment, and desire him
in a very himible Manner to go back
to the otlice and resume his legitimate
sphere of action.
But Mrs. Crosby did not appear,
and lie was at length obliged to collect
his energies for the purpose of making
the lire.
Alter wearing out , his patience, he
succeeded in his undertaking, and con
signed the meat to a cold oven. it
was too late to think of a pudding.
Mrs. Crosby must excuse that item,
although he had always expected it of
her under all circumstances. He be T
gall to think that it did require some
ingenuity /and calculatiOn to dispose
of so many duties in a morning, and
to have some faint suspicion that
house-keeping wasn't such a fine joke
after all. He wondered how its.
Crosby prospered, and whether she
didn't wish herself safe at home ;-
1, 0 .,;,‘,1 birtmelf ,in anticipating how
frightened she would be at finding hOw
much work had been laid out and
bow completely nonplussed she must
appear, if a client should happen to
call for advice. This last was such an
amusing idea, that our lawyer rubbed
lus hands together and laughed to him
: self at the ridiculous figure which ho
flincied Mrs. Crosby was about that
that time making.
Leaving the lawyer the to work out
the rest of the items, we will attend the
footsteps of Mrs. Crosby to her hus
band's office and note her experience
t.;4 ere.
Tom PettiflTer, the lawyer's clerk,
stared somewhat perseveringly when
he saw Mrs. Lawyer Crosby enter the
Aire with an assured step, and pro
ceed to hang up her bonnet and shawl
with a genuine business air.
" Tom," said Mrs. Crosby, snapping
her fingers carelessly, " is ithis office
in perfect order ?"
" I - es ma'am." replied the infant
barrister, more surprised. -
" liibeg leave to differ with you,
sir
1)o you see these papers scat
tered all about here ? Pick them up
and file them in proper enter."
W"Gere is the—lawyer ?" asked Pet
tifogger, with mouth agape.
" I'm lawyer to-day, Torn, and you
