"The Coming FenceO

Farm fencing has been discussed year
after year with increased interest ever
since fencing was used to divide fields
and farms, and to keep out OF fields and
crops the rowing cattle which formerly
filed the highways and did immense
damage to the honest, hard working
farmer. The original sworn fence" is
still in existence, and SO is the "stnmp
fence" in the wilder parts OF the Stale
where fences are used at all. Then
came the post-and-rail which, in the
most improved sections, continues to be
the most popular, and, we may say, the
most Efficient fence; but lumber Is get
ting scarce, and some other material
than wood must be substituted. The
hedge fence" in the Western States
has, within the last ten years, been most
extensively introduced, and many believe
that is the fence. Next came the iron
fence, the common wire fence, followed
10y the barbedwire fence" which just
now seems to claim the most popularity
But there is still another just tried In
the West, which is coming in for a full
share OF popular favor. This is simply
wire fence without barbs, woven to-
gether similar to fishing seine, with
a large, heavy top and bottom wire.
This fence, it is said, will completely
Withstand all kinds of cattle, with 10
possibility of injury, while it is "no
more expensive than ordinary board
fence" As to the real truth Of this
statement we cannot say, but we should
fear that from the ightness of the wire,
unless galvanized, it would succunb to
the effects of the weather. One thing,
however, seems to be we'll establishes,
that iron, in some form, must eventually
be the looming fence to stay. Wood
has become too expensive. but we can
not bring Cur mind to believe that the
wire fence, however it may be esteemed
by some, viii ever be a fixture in s.als
country. -GermantOaOaa Telegraph.

Teaching.
From the Nineteenth Ccntury]
Perhaps the chief distinctive mark to
be noted In comparing the MOslem's
Koran with the Christian Holy Bible is
that the Koran is believed to have no
human element at all. Nor is it even
held to be record of what Mohammed
said or did, for that is recorded in the
traditions. The Keran was a wholly
adjective, not subjective, revelation.
1t was revealed to one man only. It
did not pass through many mems minds
during successive generations for nearly
1000 years like the Christian revela-
ton. The continuous SUFFICIENTLY of
our sacred Scriptures proSracted
through so long period, and the fact
of our acknowledging 3 human element
in them, causes the Mussulman to place
them in the same category with his sun
nah, or tradition. According to his
view even our Gospels are not direct
revelation, but only a record of Christ's
words and actions compiled by His
followers and handed down to others.
Though admitted 20 be inspired, the
inspiration is of very different kind
from that of the Koran. It is an i'm
parting of ideas, not of words. The
very words Of the Koran, on the other
hand, and indeed the whole complete
work, not mere portion Of it, descended
from God in fixed and unalterable
form on one particular night, called the
might Of power" though happily for
Mohammeds purposes its descent was
arrested at the lowest of the seven
h""u""s There it remains treasured

tionstely lower. He recommended re-
duction of Is Or 90 per cent. This would
enable the farmers to buy more, goods
would be cheaper, and this IN turn would
furnish employment for 100000 to 100000
manufacturing operatives. The disap-
pearance of the American navy he held due
to the high tariff, because American vessels
must carry protected, therefore dear and
unstable goods, to other countries. Eng
land is perfectly willing we should con-
tinue protection, because it gives her a
monopoly of the trade in other countries.
