It isn't alone the deliciously
sWeet nut-like taste of Grape-Nuta
that has made the food famous,
though taste makes first appeal,
and goes a long way.
But with the zestful flavor there
is in Grape-Nuts the entire nlu

And this includes the rich mineral
elements of the grain, necessary for
'e'gorous health--the greatest joy

MOWING NATAL GRASS
Harvesting Should Begin as Soon
as Seeds Begin to Ripen.
Unnecessary Length of Exposure
Bleaches Hay and Makes It -Loss
Palatable and Nutritious
Best Time for Cutting.
(By S. M. TRACY.)
The mowing of natal grass should
begin as soon as a considerable part
of the sled begins to ripen. If the
weather should be unfavorable at that
tiie it canl stand several days with
out great Injury, as it is making a
continuous growth of new shoots.
Wien the cutting is delayed too long
the quality of the hay is injured by
tle shatteling of the seeds and by the
drying-uj) and breaking-off of the
older stomis. The greatest loss fron
deiyiig the cuttilngs too long is the
consequent )ostponement of the silb
sequent cuttings. To secure the grett
est yeld dt tbing the year and to mainke
hay of the highest (lit y, all of the
e'arile'r cufttings should be mafde as
soon a1s the grass is in proper conldi
tion, though the last cutting may be
delayed until a few days before frost
is e'xIected, as the grass is growing
rildiltly at thait thine and the lite cut
iing iiInsures it goil suyii of seed on
the ground for the following spring.
The l grass driies So (ilickly that it

tractive in appeariance. One clin usu
ally be reasonably sure of the weath
er several hours in advance and choose
a time for cuttinlg when the lhay can
at least be cured suficiently to put it
in the cock before it is wet by rain or
dew.
When the weather is favorable for
curing, it is best to mow int the morn
lug, from the time the dew is off until
noon, and then windrow and cock in
the afternoon. The hay shouldl remain
in the cock until thoroughly field
cured. The time required for this field
curing will tdependi on the condition
of the weather. If very fav'orable It
may be safe to haul it to the barn
lifter it hlas been ini the cocks 30 to 48
hours, but a longer time is often neces
sary.
Field curing may be regarded as
compilleted wh'len the stems are 5o dIry
that they will break when a smatll
wisp of hay is twisted tightly, wvhen it
does not feel cool if pressedh to the
cheek, and when stirring it slightly
produces a slight rustle.
When conditions are -unfavoraible
for drying, as in rainy, cool or cloudy
weathler, the field curing requires a
much longer time .nd is often unsat
infa'ctory.
With all the judgment wvhichi the
growver may use, some1 hay will occa
sionally be caught by raIn, And it then
reqiuires special care to cure It thor
oughly. If it raIns on the hany soon.
after it is cut little hlarm~ willl be (done,
but tihe injury wvill be greater if the
rain comes after it is partially dry. If
the dry or even partly dry hay be wvet
wvith rain, it should not b)0 touched un
til the surface lhas become thoroughly
dry. If It is still in the swath it will
need no attention unless the crop is
very heavy, when it shlouild be tedded
or turnedh wilth a fork. If in the wind
row or cock it should be0 opened and
spread as soon as the outside has be
come well dried.
Much field injury. from rain niany be
prevented by the use, of hay caps for
covering the cocks: Those caps ar-e
made in various styles, but the one
most generally -liked is a piece of
heavy cotton cloth four to five feet
square, with a pin of heavy wire a foot
in length fastened to each corner.
When the cap is put in place and the
i1ns r pushed into the cock to pre
etIt from being blown off, the hay
lstand a heavy rain with very little
Injury. The hay should not be put into
the bsrn or the stack untIl it is so dry
that there will be -no' danger ' from
heitt iiand moldlhg, and wheh the

which tIhe hiay should be hauled to t
burn and the thu curing complete
there.
At present a large part of the 'tnt
grass hay Is put in stacks wihen haule
from the Ileld. In ma1n11y cases thi
cannot be avoided, but it is much safe
to store It in a barn or under a sliet
Whien stacked, there is Itlnys consk)
erable loss from lenching and blench
ing on the outside of the stuck, a los
which my be10 almost wholly preVent

depend very largely on the amount of
moisture in th lie hay. If the hay is put
