FARM NOTES, Curixa Hay.—The old method of cutting and caring for newly-cut hay by hand required a longer time to carefully cure the prouuct than is now requisite. By the use of the horse scythe, spreader and rake, grass can be cured quite as perfectly in one day as it formerly could in two days. If the machine is not started in the morning till the dew has dried off, aod the tedder is kept at work well up behind the mower, there is no dif- ficulty in curing hay enough to haul in the same day it is cut, if the grass is mature and the weather favorable, Cat grass that is fully exposed to the | sun and air for two hours will have little moisture left in it. It necessary to wait till the whole field is as crisp and dry as bones before beginningto haul tothe barn. Iishould be the aim to have just as much of the is not curing done in the eock, on the wagon and in the mow as possible Hay maxes as fast while being load- | ed on the wagon and in taking it to the barn as it does in the f#eld. A little “sweating” in the mow will do | no harm for a little moisture can | safely be left to go off by its own heat without injuring its feesiing qual- ities. Tae shape of eggs has nothing to do with the life germ, unless the egg is deformed. The shape of the egg conforms with the shape of the ovary | and duct, hence we have long eggs, | short eggs and round eggs. The air cell and germ is in the broad end, and if this part is smooth and even aod if the germ is fertilized, that is all that is necessary, so far as shape goes. Hens lay pullets, Tae quality of chicks cannot be | judged until they are four to six | months old. Something of what their | general markings sre can be told | when two months old, and week by week the changes can be noticed; but | 8» far as picking out the prize-winners before they are about matored, no- body can do it. Very often the most ungainly chick of the brood proves to be the best when matured.
