Our liny cutting; tlii* year is ! ito, owl from its extraordinary rank growth iu tlie mouth of .luiic, considerable portions of it m iy be over grown, washy—that is lacking substance, nnd nutritions quality. Grass thus rntikly grown should stand longer to fully mature its sap, and lit it for substantial fodder, then when equally grown under fitting alternations ol sunshine and rain. E*peeial care is required to examine that, it be thoroughly cured—not dried —before going into mow or stack, as, witliout such precaution, much that is appar ently cured on the outer surface, is still dump and green within. Many hay cutters have a fancy for salting it as it is thrown into the mow or stack, and the expediency or benefit.of thus using salt is still an undecided question with many excellent farmers. We have tried salting, but we con fess, with no decided opinion of its advantages Two or three or even four quarts on a ton ap pears a small dose to preserve hay too damp to keep otherwise. As to any goo Ito cattle to daily partake of salt with hay, even if so thoroughly distributed through as to affect it alike we have some doubts, believing by long experience that a tablespoonful or so of sab. once a week or fortnight, is all that a full grown ox or cow requires, and that it is, per- ■ haps, better so fed, than if with their daily ; food. Those who are putting up hay for their own use, and have old clean straw on hand, if their j hav be imperfectly cured, can profitably inter mix layers of straw with the hay. when thrown ' into the mow or stack thus preventing mold.: The straw absorbs the superfluous moisture, and it also gets a flavor from the grass, thus , making the straw a palatable fodder. We , have practiced this with derated adcant. ge t i and commend it strongly. , We have also found rank water-grown hav, like that of this season, less kindly to cure in the winrow, or cock, as recommended in our last number, than that of ordinary season*. — Spreading, therefore, that which is hand-mown : should be looked after. In such a season sis , this, particularly, the benefit of the mowing machine, iu this regard, is apparent. SHARE TREES IN PASTURES.— 1 confess to a very warm love for trees. I love them in the forest, stretching their tall trunks towards heaven ; I love them 011 the lawn, affording n i welcome shade from "Summer's noontide rav," when wearied with toil, I return from the field and I also love noble trees, scattered here and there over the farm, grown in the majestic symmetry of nature in whose refreshing shade our grandsires sat and looked over the scenes of hard-won, but bloodless victories gained over the stubborn soil. Generations of cattle have reposed contentedly in this shade, and what sweeter picture of rural repose can then la; than when looking over broad fi'dils, we see '.he flocks taking refuge f"om a Summer's sun. under the wide-spreading boughs of some an cient elm, oak, or maple. And yet we are to'iL that this is all wrong ; that all those grand old trees which (thanks be to their sen-c of the beautiful) our fathers left standing when they felled the mighty forest, must nil be level ed to the earth leaving but an unsightly stump as a monument of departed glorv ; and horse or ox, with 110 retreat from the burning rays of a Summer's sun, forced to wander in agony over the field, eating, pcrhiqw because he does not know what else to do. I don't wish harm to iny one, but I would like to sec Hon. Mr. ]) who was the lirst to mount this hobby,laid j out in the sun some July day, when heaven and earth seemed lilied with fire and if he did not, soon wish for some of those trees he sent Ids foreman to cut down, I would yield the point. Hut seriously are we to have u<> eye for the beautiful ? Is the almighty dollar always to bound our vision ? If we plant our lawns with trees, and endeavor to show our taste in their arrangement, why not carry out the same plan over all the farm ? We often admire the stately proportions of an oak, an elm, or a maple, at a distance liioie than close at hand, because we can then take iu their whole beauty of proportion at a glance. No farmers ; do not as you st e your flocks and herds begin to seek the cooling shade, in the ieafy month of June, sa'ly forth, ax in hand, and felt to the earth your beautiful trees. I am one of those who believe that the stomach of an ox rcqurires rest as well as that of a man and that titan might as well cram himself from iu irniug till night, as to required it of ids dumb beast. Indeed, when we consider the system of the ox, that lie eats quickly, and that a period of repose is absolutely necessary, that lie may chew it over again, the idea of com pelling li>m to stuff himself continually is sim ply ridiculous. Thus would I say to the graziers, spare the trees. WHITE DAISIES— The prevalence of white daisies on a farm is generally considered a sign >f bad management. Iut let us not be too fast in our denunciation of this weed, or of the farmers who do not exterminate it. Sheep relish it highly and though horses and caitie tarn away from it while green, they take to it kindly when tnnde into hay Then, there are certain dry, sandy soils, where Timothy and clover grow with difficulty, and suffer in time of drouth, but on'wkich the daisy flourishes well. Now, if the owner of soph kind has not the means or the time to enrich it ail at once why should he not make the best of the ease, and let the daisy have the largest liberty ? As to allowing the plants to go to seed, and scatter over the neighboring lands, we give no soch advice. If one desires it, really sets about it r the daisy is not difficulty to eradicate. Turn in a flock ( f sheep, rn Spring, upon a field infested with it and after tUev have cropped it quite short, break up the land and devote it to a heavy crop of oats and daisies will almost disappear. Or, give tl>e ground a good manur ing and devote it to meadow, and the luxuriant grass will choke it out. Or, raising any hoed crop upon the laud w ill answer the same pur pose. To Kll.l, FERNS AND DRAKES— Most varie ties can be subdued by mowing them in June ami in September, regularly for two or three years. Let no one be disheartened, because they do not succumb at once. Kvery year's mowing will weaken tlieui, and'Thev will give up the unequal contest at lat. The sort cal led bogbreak must have its crown hacked oft" with a bog-hoe. Hake off the tops, and burn or cympost. ftrjf- Kvery innn is the architect of Ids own fortune, for character ; fate. fUisccUaucons TOWANDA HARDWARE CUTLERY I RON AND STOVE STORE. ta I). C.
