An old farmer says -nlv that '•before it i- wilted c \on a heavy* drenching n. n, wi i i >i hurt the grass. \Ye ail know t! at this is the ca-c while the grass or clover is growing. If you dip a freshly plucked clover 1/os <>m in water, it is still sweet, but a dried clover blossom will soon lose its sugar in water. The growing or fresh blos¬ som is covered with a thin eAat of varnish which sheds the lain or water, but when the grass is partly or wholly dmed, this coat of v?lr ul.sb cracks, nnd admits Die water. This is one of the most important points in hay mak’ng. A shower while the grass is growing docs not hurt it in the least and after it is cut, ns long as it rc mains fresh and full of sap* rain will not dissolve out the sugar, and other soluble matter. It is for this reason that some ° crcod farmers commence to cut gra.*s in the aftcr ' Slid , keep , Oil CUttlllg as long , as they can sec. During the night dew or rain will not injure this fresh grass, while had it been cut earl}' in the morning and exposed to tho but sun, the same amount of dew or rain would have done more or less damage. There is ’another reason for cutting in tho late after¬ noon and evening rather than in the morning. During the day an a<#o of grass evaporates several thousand gallons of'water. On a bright, sunshiny day, the leaves evaporate water faster than the roots can pump it up out of the soil but during the night evaporation partially ceases, and as tho roots keep pumping up tho tfatcr, the plants contain much more water in tho morning than in tho evening. Another point to bo observed in making, hay is this': AYate” that is inside tho plant is far less limit water outside the plant. Tire reason for this is, that the sap con (aiiis sugar and ether soluble mat¬ ter, while the water on the outside of the plant does not. Hence j follows tl at after hay has been ex¬ posed to rain or dew ?t ; -•■ moscsm’-^ ry to cure it more ct .op’cUd or to dry it more thoroughly than grass wiiich has “been cr,: Hi : v out show r. »t Exper need far a < mers u« dor stare l l- . ;;l mv' io oi' our younger rea-i - i as for 1I»o hi..i. 11 aV l ha. t; .s oxp cd in rain i* .ten ,, r ,-.

I ought to have reached tho city ly this afternoon, and here it is 11 o’clock. ’ “What made you so late ?” asked a Girard House clerk, as he threw down a key to which was attached a rough^dge brass tag about the size of a buckwheat cake. “Oh, slow trains! slow trains! They seemed to stop everywhere and at all the little cross roads.” “That’s queer.” “1 should say it was. Why. at one place they stopped about seven minutes, while a half dozen people came out of tho only house to be seen in tho neighborhood and boarded the train. Did you ever hear anything like it ?” “Never.” “I have,” said a little old man with long, shaggy hair, who had overheard tho conversation while searching the Philadelphia direc¬ tory for the namo of a Boston firm. * • **You have ?” '•Yes; you may not believe it, but it’s a fact. Several years a«go I used to travel a good deal on the Old Colony railroad, up in Massa¬ chusetts. There was a place called Wheat Sheaf Lane, where tho train stopped nearly every day for an old woman, who was al ways there to send somo eggs into town. Now, would you believe it? One day the train stopped as usual for Aunt Betsy, who was there with her eggs but she only had clcyen. She said that an old hen \*as still on her nest, and she wanted tho train to wait until she could make up the dozen.” “Yes.” “Wei!, J’ll be darned if that train didn’t wait whilo tho hen laid the extra egg.” Tho Into arrival said ho gucssdd he would go to bed, tho bedfamon ed hotel clerk swooned, arid tho little old man walked down tho corridor and dropped wearily into a chair.—Philadelphia American. • --- Rules for Butter Making. 1. To make butter the milk from healthy cows should be used. 2. Avoid excitement of the cows produced by chasing with dogs or any other manner. Harsh treat¬ ment lessens the quantity and in¬ jures the quality of inilk. 3. Cows should have abundance of suitable food and pure ivatcr, and salt kept whero they can have access to it every day. 4. Cows should bo kept free from ail foul odors, and not bo al low’ed to eat or drink anything that will give taint to the milk. 5. Milking should bo done at regular hours, with clean hands, clean udders, and clear, stables, and the milk kept away from any con¬ taminating odors. 6. Milk should be strained im mediately after being drawn, arid Qciutcd to eliminate unj r objection able odors; this done the milk will make more and bettor butter. 7. 3Iilk vessels should bo thor oughly cleansed, scalded with boil ing water ahd aired, to keep them perfectly sweet.—Ex.
