MacKay Dunn, Durham.-â€"tf. The coming bi-centenarymf Wes- ley’s birth calls attention to the progress of Methodism. The statis- tics show that there were in the Uni- ted Kingdom in the year before Wesley’s death 294 itinerant preach- ers and 71,568 members. in the West Indies. Nova Scotia. and Newfound- land there were 5350 members. In the United States of America there were 228 itinerant preachers and . 56,631 members. This made a total of about 135,000 (134,549) members the year before Wesley’s decease. In 1902 there was reported a total mem- bership in the various Methodist bod- ies of 7,659,235 members, with 48,359 ministers, 104.830 local preachers. 7, 267.511 Sunday school scholars and church property valued at $300,000, I000. Of these immense figures the iAmerican Methodist churches have 6,437,461 members, 42.088 ministers, 46,423 local preachers. 5,091,879 Sun- day school scholars, and church pro- perty valued at $180,000,000.

Whether hay should be cut early or late will depend, therefore, on the with the usual ; following conditions :---(1) The stock dyed to ask, e-walk '3 ’ ” wered him: :hauce; iter thing, danceX ” (1 thus, ;to be kept; at least enough hay should be out early to supply the ' dairy cows and young stock. (2) The season; if the weather be “ catchy ” 5 it is generally wiser to defer the cutting until somewhat later. (3) The 'acreage to be handled; if the crop be large. it will be necessary to begin cutting earlier. To this end it is well at this season to bear the following facts in mind: Early cut hay is relatively richer in flesh-forming elements; it is more palatable and digestible; it has a sweeter aroma; but it has the dis- advntage of being much more diflicult to cure. Grass, as it approaches ma- turity. gains considerably in weight; part of this increase consists of starch and sugar, which is valuable to the feeder; and part consists of crude fibre which decreases digestibility. and renders the hay less palatable. Early cut hay is more valuable per ton than late cut; but a larger amount- of digestible nutrients per acre is obtained by later cutting. Late cut bay has also the advantage of being more easily cured, thus diminishing not only the labor but also the risk of loss in harvesting. Early cut hay is especially valu~ able for sheep, calves, colts and dairy cattle; while for fattening cattle, late cut hay will give as good results. In experiments conducted by Prof. Sanborn of New Hampshire, and Prof. Henry of Wisconsin. to determine the relative value of early and late cut hay for fattening steers. the advantage was a little in favor of the late cut hay. Since tho boy crop is likoly to be light this you. it is doubly important thot it be hondlod co the but pouiblo odvontogo and cut um! ourod in such a. woy u to locate the lumen: amount of nutrients in the moat di- gestible and polotoblo form. Hey should be cured and stored as rapidly as possible after cutting. With this in View, it is better to defer cutting in the morn- ing until most of the dew is off. If 30 tons or more of hay is to to be handled in a season, a. tedder will be found a good instrument. Care must be exercised to avoid storing hay while at all damp from rain, dew or absorption from the and. Mois- Lture of this kind will spoil hay much iquicker than the water contained in ! its own sap. Last year attention was called to the method of curing clover hey practised successfully by Mr. Henry Glendenning. and a. number of other prominent and reliable farmers. Mr. Glendenning thus outlines his method. Cut when in full bloom, or when the blossoms contain the most houev. Cut in the morning after the dew has dried 0E. That cut in the morning may be cocked up in the afternoon. The mower should be run not later than 4 p. m., one all cut that day should be put into cock before the dew falls. This hay should be put into the barn next day and well trumped into the mows. lle especially emphasizes the follow- ing conditions :-« (2) Do not allow fresh cut bay to lie on the ground over night, exposed to dew or rain. (1) Do not out in the morning un- til the grass is dry. (3) If any hay should get wet with rain. let it stand in the cocks until thoroughly dry before taking to the barn. Mr, Gleudsnning states that his hey came out. as green as when it. was pm in. with the blossoms a beautiful pink color, which would indicste that it had not heated so much as one would neturslly expect. The sdvautuges of this method are: (1) The swing of time between cutting and storing, lessening the risk of damage from rain; (2) All leaves and blossoms. the most vuln- nble parts of .the plant. are saved: (3) The hay is cleaner and brighter than that cured in the old way. Of course hay cannot be cured by rule: conditions vary. A good method of curing on a. gravelly up- land form would be quite unsuited to the flutter clay and humus soil. The length of time for which hey should be exposed in the swath will be determined by its ripeness. by the humidity of the atmosphere. the temperetnre end moistness of the soil. the presence or absence of wind c. So that every men must be, in lerge measure. a. lsw unto himself, and his prsctice must be governed by personal experience. It enpeere to be a fact however that when the conditions are favor- able, and the necessary skill end judgement exercised. clover may be stored much greener then was for- merly thought poeihle, and that the very best quelity mev be secured in thin wny.

Cope Colony. the United Ststss end even in Austrslis srs looking to s supply of Csnsdisn chizkens to sstisiy their growing trs e. The problem of supplying this wonderfully increased demand for chickens can be solved by the farmers alone. Instead of the farmer rearing fifty or a hundred chickens that re- ceive little attention or feed. he should rear from 200 to 1000 chickens annually. These should be of e utili- ty type. such as can be found in the popular breeds, Plymouth Rocks and Wyandottes. The chickens should be hatched and reared by incubators and breeders, and when ready for market the cockerels should be placed in fattening crates and fatted. The equipment required to do this work is not an expensive one : 8200 to $250 is the cost of incubators. brooders. houses and fattening crates for finishing 1000 chickens. It is as necessary for realizing the greatest} profits from the pocltry business as threshing and mowing machinery is for general farming. The work con- nected with finishing 1000 chickens with the proper appliances is no more than is necessary for rearing 200 chickens by the natural means. Poultry farming is a business which requires to be developed in the same manner as the butter. cheese and fruit branches. A substantial profit can be made from the poultry busi- ness. when it is carried on as an ad- ‘junct to farming and with the 'raine careful attention and financing. The Dominion Department of Agri- culture is endeavoring to increase the poultry trade of Canada; to en- couragl the growing of the greatest number of high class chickens and to assist in the marketing of them. A revised edition of the bulletin “ Pro- fitable Boultry Farming ” has just been issued. and will be mailed with- out charge on application to the Com- missioner of Agriculture and Dairy- ing. Ottawa. The information it contains is of great value in the poultry work, and it should be in the hands of every interested poultry- man in Canada. I IheKingEdwaldEigaIStme.
