On farms where considerable hay Is grown, they say, methods must be adopted by which the greater part of the heavy labor Is done by horses. This will necessitate the general use of certain types of labor-savin- g machinery, ttonie of them not so common in the East, which have been thoroughly tested and proved satisfactory In the western part of the United States. The Kmall hay grower, however, need not make a very heavy Investment In new haying apparatus, for, by rearranging the working of his crew, and using a little more horse labor for the hard work, he can add considerably to the efficiency of his crew. Time of Mowing It Important. The time of day when the mower Is started has a direct bearing on the amount of hay made per day and the number of men required. This Is especially true on farms where It Is the custom to haul or stack bay In the afternoon only. If mowing Is done in the morning and raking in the afternoon, more men and horses than usual will be required, and If mowing and raking are both done In the afternoon, still more men and horses will be (Prepared by needed.
