Huc It Luie Ilay. S. J. Wooliey, of
Franklin county, O., writing to the
Germautowu 1'tletjrajih. says:
The raking of hay might nppenr to
be a very simple tiling, but there ' is
more of an art about it than most far
mers are awaie of. We see some mead
ows that a part is raked Wean and the
other part is not. and the reason of this
la that only a part of it is raked iu the
right direction. When cut with a
machine the grass falls hick, and if you
rake In the same direction that you cut
you will gut all the grasses, as it lays
back with the top over the butts
shingle fashion. But if you rake in
the opposite direction you see it shingles
the wrong way and you must lose a
part of it. Very many tons of hay are
annually lost by raking it iu the wrong
way.
