the spool. | use long, bread staples, but
l do not drive them home, so that the
wire is loose from one end to the other
end. To keep the wires from spreading,
50 that animals can crawl through,
fasten them together with pieces of the
same wire cut 3 in 3hes longer than
l wish the wires IN the fence to be
apart. One end Of these wires is bent in
the shape Of a letter r, by bending it in
a hole bored l Z inch deep in a half

thing to keep the wires in place when
these tie pieces are fastened on, the fence
wires viii be drawn together. | use "a
piece Of hardwood board, one-haf by an
inch, feet long, with a fiat piece Of
iron screwed to one side Of it. This stick
has notches flied ree-eighths Of an inch
deep in the wood and iron to correspond
with the wires, so that when / place the
stick against the fence one wire goes in
each notch My stick is feet long,
and has notches cut in it every inches.
Where 1 wish my fence wires to be
tied together, place my notehed stick
and hang tie with hook on the other
side If the fence from me, and the low
CT end Of the tie hanging on the other
side Of the lower wire to be tied. If you
wish your fence wires to be tied every six
feet, begin three feet from the post and
tie the two top wires, then skip one
space and fasten the next wires, and so
on until the ground is reached The
stick may be moved over three feet, and
the two wires skipped the first time be
fastened rs in Fig. !
These tie pieces are fastened to the
wire with piece Of fiat steel inches
long aud an inch wide, bent and filed
hook shaped To fasten the top Of the
tie I hang it close to the notched stick
(hage tine wires drawn tight), take this
piece Of steel in my right hand, hang it
on the fence wire to the right Of the
tie, turn it over the fence wire until
the notch in the steel catches in tho
short end Of the tie and wind it around
the fence wire without any trouble. Tine
lower end hangs on the other side of the
lower wire. Catch the end Of the tie
that hangs below the wire in the bend
Of the steel, with the notch in the steel

bend around the wire and finish the job
the same as for the upper end of the tie
This makes the best and cheapest

ception. I use 2 inch staple one half
inch wide, and when | fasten the wire
am careful to place the points of the
staple so that they will not split the

HOOP POLE FARMS.
Interesting Facts Concerning Remunera-
tive hut Much Derided Industry.

iAht bh1 NUN iStEtNAd
The so called hoop pole farms give
profitable employment to hundreds Of
people. The business is as old as the
country, but comparatively few persons
know anything about IT, With a view to
enhghtment on the subject, is here ap-
pended an account Of the industry as it
is conducted in Sullivan and Ulster
counties, n. Y. from the New York
Sun: Most Of the round hoops used in
New York city for co5perage and pack
ing box strapping are the product Of the
swamp and mountain districts Of these
counties. Although sawed hoops have
come into use for various kinds Of bands,
the annual output Of shaved hoops from
these counties steadily increases and
amounts now to more than 100, 600, 600
hoops. The price Of hoops at the shaving
eenters averages s.. De a thousand, so that
the derided hoop pole farms Of this re-
gion are putting in circulation at least
$500, 600 year
The heavy timber in the swamp and
mountain districts Of Sullivan and III
ster counties was exhausted years ago.

Pleasure in California.

During the winter months the resi-
dents Of the Eastern States make the
best of forbidding conditions and
amuse themselves in various ways by
large expenditure of energy. They
work hard, but they have sport. They
must be careful to avoid the numer-
Gus dangers with which very cold
weather surrounds them. All of their
/ efforts at amusement are a struggle
/ against fOTbidding and uncOngenial
aspect of nature. They simply create
all the pleasure they get; nature, in
stead of helping them, presents a
constant protest against their pleas
ure. During these same months the
visitor in California simply has to sit
down and enjoy more pleasure than
his most active efforts could have Sc
cured in the Eastern States; and if he
wants to double the pleasure which
mere inactivity affords, he can do so
with the least possible exertion. At
all times he has abundant sunshine in
California, for the rainy days are few
and short, and there is neither snow
nor ice to make him a prisoner. Flow
ers bloom increasingly in the garden,
and fresh fruits are always at hand.
Watermelons and strawberries grace
his Christmas dinner.
All along the coast of California the
summers are cold enough to make
wooden clothing comfortable. In the
Eastern States the wretched inhabi-
tant wears the thinnest of clothing
and then suffers from the heat. The
Californian goes camping or strolling
through the woods with no fear of a
drenching, for the California summers
are rainless. The mountain scenery
is of infinite variety and unapproach-
able majesty and beauty. Large and
elegant hotels abound at all the sea-
side resorts. Splendid vineyards and
orchards exist everywhere, and the
most gorgeous wild flowers abound.
All the most beautiful resorts and
wLld retreats of California are reached
by the lines of the Southern Pacific

Never in the history os Kansas has

this year The farmers cannot get
enough hands to harvest the great
crop, and the Santa Fe Railroad has
made special rates from Kansas City
and other Missouri River towns, to
induce harvest hands to go into the
state. The wheat crop of the state
will be from sixty to siXty-five million
bushels, and the quality is high.
The grass crop is made, and is very
large one; the early potatoes, rye,
barley and oats crops are made, and
are all large. The weather has been
propitious for corn, and it is the
cleanest, best looking corn to be found
in the country today Cheap rates
will be made from Chicago, st.
