FEWER FARM FENCES.

Tho old-fashioned zigzag, or "Vir-
ginin" rail, fences so common forty
years ngo arc now seldom seen, and
perhaps are never built, writes S. 8.
Reach. Stone walls are cumbersome,
often thrown down by the frosts of
winter and subsequent thawing, and
aro not economical, except on farms
SO covered with stone that it is of first
Importance to get rid of them. Post
and rail or slat fences are EXPENSIVE,
more so in the aggregate than most
people would suppose, without reheo-
ton on the subject. Wire fenccing is
probaly as cheap and lasting MS any in
use. There ore serious objections to
bnrbed wire, and many prefer the
smooth wire, either straight, twisted
or woven. But is it necessary for
farmers to build as many fences of any
kind as has been the custom in the
past? If the laws which most States
now have concerning cattle were re-
spected and enforced, farmers would
be relieved of the necessity OF fencing
every foot of their land bordering OH
the public roads. Nearly every farm
has fields that are never pastured, and
it would seem. need not be inclosed.
Tho great burden upon farmers for
needless fencing is imposed not to keep
their own cattle in, but to keep other
peoples cattle out. I am pleased to
observe the tendency to build fewer
fences than formerly, not only to sub
divide farms, but especially along the
highways. Ii these are left unfenced
and rows of shade trees planted out on
the boundary lines, farmers will be
saved deal of trouble. and expense,
and the country roads be made moro
enjoyable and attractive. New York

HORSES IN BURNING STABLES.

The heart-rending news of the burn
ing OF nearly one hundred and fifty
horses Imported and home bred per-
cherons) at Elwood, in Northern
Illinois, has been spread all over the
West. This was as fine drove MS was
ever owned in this country, and as
valuable. 1t included also three very
fast and valuable trotters, and the loss
can hardly be estimated.
1t is almost impossible to get a
horse out of burning building. II
possible, the harness or saddle should
be thrown over the back of the horse
or he should be blindfolded by sack
or an old garment thrown over his
head and eyes, and then he can be led
out. Strange as it may seem, if he
can, n horse will rush back into a
burning building. The loss to the
owner, in this instance, is immense in
a pecuniary way, but irreparable to
his breeding stud and the vicinity,
which availed itself of the nearness to
the stud and SO large choice from
which to breed. Doubtless new I'M,
portations will be made, but there il
