WHERE NO FENCES ARE.

There is one great advantage in no
fences, and that is 1t does not compel
one who has no stock to fence his farm.
Those who keep the stock are COM
PEELED to keep them inclosed, which is
only fair and right. Fences have
caused more disputes and lawsuits
than anything else, as well MS having
entailed greater expense on many
farmers than was necessary. In some
sections at the present time whole
neighborhoods can be found in which
no fences exist.

Canadians Are Martial.

Figures have just been published

indication Of the military spirit which
animates young Canada. The state Of
New York has a population of nearly
100000 more than the entire Domin-

Old. musty hay should be used for
bedding only. During the summer sea-
son there is nothing better for horses
than to cut few nrmfuls of grass in
