To expedite operations a cutter made of knives,

 can be done as well with the hands, by carefully 

 pressing tbc curd through the fingcis with the

 be heated without scorching, nod pound back 

 gradually till the temperature is brought up to 

 about 100 degrees, or until the curd ifffMjfel a UttU

 taste. Wtieo the curd is suffered to become hard, 

 at any lime from the iirsl breaking up till pal into

 fences are poor, in consequence of u scarcity of

 if a rail gels thrown off, put it on immediately ; if

a on account of the grain and tbo fodder, and

severe frost is apprehended, the " new wav " mny

that my corn (.hunld ripen tbe "natural way." 



I place a in-ii i timaU upon the 



fodder for stock, and much has been said and writ- 

 ten upon the batt mode of DUrJog it. Tin- way 

 which I profit and practice is this: -When tbe 

 ■I well glazed, 

 I cut off tbe stalk above tbe car, laying Ihi itoJkj 

 of two hills together. When wilted I bind nnd 

 pike them in the Bold, lolling Ihtm ifmaio, 

 weather be favorable, ten or twelve days, the 

 to the burn, banging them on poles or setting up 

 under tbe roof. I find that my cattle eat them 

 better if cured in this way, than if bung up in tl 

 barn as soon as bound, or if dried wholly in ll 

 field. A.s I husk my corn mostly even | 

 so early in the season tbut the husks and butts 

 would mould too much, if I did not mi i with them 

 a quantity of straw or poor bay. I also salt them

husks will be eaten; but a few fodderings a week. 

 from November to April, will tend lo keep tbe 

 bowels of tbc cattle in a loose and healthy condi- 

 tion, especially if you have much slraw or poor 

 hay to feed out. A few corn bulU, through tbe 

 winter and spring, occasionally, will be chewed 

 with a relish. From my own experience 1 am led 

 to believe liiat Ihe well secured fodder from 150 to 

 200 bushels of corn, fed out judiciously, to a stock 

 ■ -irly as valuable as an equal weight 

 of medium quality bay.
