Farm newspaper notes show clover hay offers higher feeding value when cut at early bloom and cured promptly. Proper post harvest handling, including forenoon cutting, two teddings, and careful cocking, preserves leaves and aroma, reducing losses. Weather affects plans, but timely tedding and sun can yield better hay quality for dairy and young stock.
A crop of clover deteriorates after more than two days in sun and weather. If left unharvested after cocking, the danger increases and the clover loses value compared with fresh forage. Continuous exposure worsens quality, suggesting earlier harvest would have been better.
Farmers are urged to properly maintain implements after harvest. Clean grease and dirt from bearings, oil and protect bright parts to prevent rust. Prepare for replacements, make a to do list if time is short, and cover plows while under repair. Ensure repared parts and gear are ready for next season.

The Indian Chief Bender topped pitching in 1911, with strong seasons by Gregg of Cleveland, Krapp, and Ed Walsh. Bender went 17–5 while Walsh posted 27–18 with 868 2/3 innings and 285 strikeouts.
