a son whom she had christened

that when in after days he was asked
his name, and kept saying What"
amusing scenes would follow, which
was likely enough, especially IL the
boy was careful to pronounce the as

occur once when he went to school,
and was told. as a newcomer. to stand
up and furnish certain particulars.

Inexpensive Farm Fences.

have been experimenting in farm
fencing for nearly half century, and
find that post and rail fences, where
the timber is at hand, are by far the
most satisfactory. / drive my posts
and dig no holes. In driving the posts
first taNe an iron crowbar, strike the
bar down through the gravel and stone
as far as desired, and thon jerk it side
ways until quite an opening is formed.
The posts are put in place aud man
with forty-p ,und wooden maui will
soon have them down to the % foot
mark, with comparatively little trouble,
when they will be found quite solid.
Begin at the ground and lay a worm
rail on stones or blocks. to the right
and left of alternate posts. This gives
the fence slight worm. A stake
should then be pointed and driven in
opposite the post next the worm rail,
so as to stand parallel with it and
three or four inches from it. Place o
wire band around the stake and post
just on top of the worm rail. These
will support the stake until two courses

band must be put into place. Continue
until you have tho fence as high as
desired, and you will have fence that
will turn any kind of stock, and last
as long as posts. The wire may be
No. 0 TO -, according to the size OF
the rails. I get a good, strong pair OF
wire pliers and an iron bar, which are
all the tools we need, besides maui
and trestle.
I thought at first that the tapering
posts would heave out badly in spring
and not be able to Withstand heavy
winds. Such, however, was not the
result. Driven posts stand better
than those for which holes are dug.
The rails are kept well off the ground,
and rot but slightly. have renewed
old rail fences In this way when near
ly one.half Of the rails were useless. !
selected those that were good enough
to use In this new kind OF fence, and
got out almost enough to make 4 new

rails will turn cattle or horses
