Wisely Adopted by Dairymen.

The adoption by most of the prominent
dairymen and farmers of the United States,
Of the Improved Butter Color made by
Wells, Richardson & Co., Burlington, VT,
is proof Of their wisdom in a business
point of view. Nearly all winter butter is
colored in order to make it marketable, and
this color is the best, in regard to purity,
strength, permanence and perfection of tint.

one year before setting, and spreads twenty

the fall, and plants corn or potatoes the
next spring. These are thoroughly culti-

barbed wire fencing for two wears and were
so well pleased with it that we are now
using it almost exclusively upon our farms.
Our faith in it is shown by our works-we
put up several miles of it last spring and
expect to put up at least a thousand rods
this spring. We find that it is cheap fence
to start with-cheaper than rails or boards
and that it requires less attention afterWard
than either board rail or hedge fence: is
stronger than any of these three, and more
durable than rail or board fence.
But these are the least advantages of its
use. A Virginia rail fence occupies a strip
OF land eight feet wide, or one acre tor every
mile. The use of this land is lost and more.
for the fence corners produce weeds. which
must be frequently cut down or else allowed
to grow to do greater damage A hedge
occupies even more land than a rail fence.
for its roots spread tor twenty feet on either
side, and it is gross feeder. while it harbOrs
both weeds and animal pests. Barbed wire
fencing occupies but very little ground, the
weeds along it are easily kept down, and it
affords no retreat for small animals: aor
does it blow down in our prairie zephyrs.
as do board and rail fences.
The plans you suggest to warn stock
away are good. We have no cobble stones
here III the West, but on our level land we
can ditch in safety. And let me say here
that warning stock is not the only advant-
age of ditching and banking. The bank
saves one strand of wire, and the ditch
drains the water from the posts, preserving
them much longer. But the best plan of all
