Lord keeps 100 cows on300 acres of land, and has not raised a pound of hay for years. The corn is sowed in drills three and a half feet apart and about the time it blossoms, it is cut with a sclf- rakins reaper, cutting ouo row at a1ime,Hho machine throwing if off in:1gravois. wncn sufficiently willed, it is bound and set in largo siacKS ana anowcu to cure, stanu- ing on tho ground until winter sets in, when it is hauled to the barn.
