danger is avoided, and there is no
injury to the wire. Now. you are
ready to proceed in earnest. Insert
the end in the earth, staple to the end
post, and run out your wire along the
line, laying it close to the posts.
Now go along fifteen or twenty rods,
pick up the wire about two to three
feet from the post, place the end of
the lever behind the post, and pull
until you hear music. When tight
enough, staple fast, and proceed to
the next fifteen or twenty rod post.
If the wires are not tight and prop
erly put up, young stock especially
will fool with it, and the moment they
find it gives they will try again. until
they work panel or two loose, when
over they go.
For hogs and sheep, two boards at
the bottom are imperative. Sheep
pay little attention to barbs, when
their wool is long; and in spring, if
the lambs crawl through as they often
do, the dams will follow. One through
the whole flock follows as a matter of
course.
AS the distance from the source of
supply increases as we proceed west
ward, the price of lumber enhances in
value in a far greaterratio than wire,
which is one of the great incentives
to the increasing demand for wire
over boards in the Far West. And,
again, when posts rot out, the usual
custom is to renew each alternate
post but the boards have parted from
their firm hold by age, and we never
have good. firm fence unless renewed
entirely. This is very expensive.
With wire we can draw our staples,
renew our posts or drive deeper, staple
fast, and we are on sound footing
again.

filled the Fort Street Methodist
Episcopal church Oh Sunday night
to hear the Sunday closing law
discussed. The meeting was
opened by the Rev. E. s. Chase,

looms on Sunday, and Of enforcing
the law 10 the letter, and that IL
the people were at all anxious to
have this point of the law Obeyed
1t was within their power to do 30.
1t was their business and not the
business Of the City Council to at.
tend to this matter. That there
were plenty of lawyers here who
were particularly willing to prose-
cute, without charge, any suit that
may be brought against a saloon.
keeper for keeping open house on
Sunday, and that 1t now rested
with the people to make COM
plants.
After Col. Wells had finished,
Prof. F. d. Bovard rose and gave
his opinions regarding the Sunday
law thorough ventilation, ex-
pressing much in common with
the first speaker.
There being some doubt as to the
best method of making complaints,
motion was made requesting vol
unteers to compose q committee OF
ten, whose business it should be,
next Sunday to go TO all
the proprietors Of saloons that
were then open and ask
them to show their approba-
ton of the law by closing; aud, In
the event Of their not complying,
to Institute proceedings against
them for the violation of the law.

A reporter of the HERALD yes
terday interviewed the managers
of our leading banks, with the
view of ascertaining how Los An
geles stood financially.
He fret looked in upon the Los
Angeles County Bank.
Reporter,-How does money now
compare with this time last year?
Money here is very plentiful and
in very moderate demand, as COM
pared with the amount on hand.
Deposits have Increased more than
| fifty per cent. over this time last
year; and, in some instances, they
show even q larger increase.
Rsporter-From what quarter
and from what class of people do
they come?
A large portion Of the depositors
are new corners, who have come
here to live; but the business and
farming community, also, are
making heavier deposits now than
they have done at any time past.
Reporter-How do mortgages
stand?
Very few are being made, and
many of the old ones are being
paid off; notes and interest are
punctually paid up. Tais time OF
the year it has been usual with us
to loan q great deal OF money to
pay taxes, but this year we know
of no one instance where we have
had to loan money for that pur-
pose. Now about half of our loans
are upon real estate and the inter-
terest has always been paid up
promptly, aud mortgagors have,
without single exception, paid
up their own taxes. There are
few loans being made to people
who are building new houses
The Com mercial Bank was next
interviewed.
Reporter-How is money in
town?
Money is very plentiful and in
terest very low, more so than it
has been at any other time in the
history of Los Angeles.
RepOrter--How do you find APP
plications for money to loan and
the redemption of securities +?
We only loan on commercial pa
per at 80, go and 80 days. We have
found that our debtors meet princi-
pal and interest with gratifying
promptitude.
Reporter How are deposits
here?
They are steadily on the in.
crease.
Reporter are the most gen.
erai depositOrs?
The business class.
Reporter-Are farmers deposit
ing or borrowing?
They are about a stand-Of as re-
CARDS that, owing, no doubt, to the
fact of their paying Oft old debts;
but, If they have u good year this
time, we expect to see them large
depositOrs, as the last harvest has
Strengthened out nearly all of
them.
At the Farmers & Merchants'
Bank the reporter learned that
money is very plentiful and OBJ
tainable on very easy terms, the
rate of interest being very low.
Reporter are deposits
They are about three time larger
than at this Tina last year.
Reporter-Who are your chief de-
positors 2?
Well, that is hard to say. They
belong as much to one class az an
other. Everyone lately seems 10
have money.
Reporter-Are many mortgages
being filed?
No; u very few, but there are q
great many being paid off.
Reporter-Are notes and other
obligations being met promptly ?
Very much so. indeed. l hardly
remember case to the contrary, Of
late.
Reporter-Who are getting loans,
and for what purpose
They are very small proportion
of our people and are only pressed
temporarily, in order to build; the
mass of the people do not require
accom- modatons. VIZ. are only too
aDxions to make loans at very low
rates, II we get good security.
