rha Hedge IFenoe.

Messrs. johnson and Hersey visited
farmers to day in order to further the
Interests of the Hedse Fence Company.
They have orders for the planting OF
about sixty miles of hedge, and they de
aire 10 secure orders for forty miles more,
making the number one hundred. They
have specimens of their hedge in di1er-
ent places and they certainly present q
very attractive appearance and as well as
being greatly suderior In all respects TO
the old hedges throughout our State, and
1t should certainly be adopted by our
farmers generally. 1t is proposed to EN-.
brace the entire Peninsula or State In the
New Castle County Company, aud the
maine may consequently be changed and
It's powers enlarged. If 1t will pay the
diyidencs predicted by the agents, those
who take stock wilt be among the more
fortunate of the most favored class oi
citizens.
