inches In the center. In the center Of
the ridge plant posts two rods apart.
String along these posts, from the

wire about feet high, or little more
than that. In the center between the
posts drive down a short stake. which
when driven will be of the same height
as the top of the wire; staple the wire
to these stakes. Above the woven
wire string couple of strands of
barb wire, the top one being near the

When boy is far away from home,
What pleases him the most?
Why, It's when letter comes to him
From mother thro' the post!
No matter If the silver hairs
Appear upon his head,
He's still his mothers boy as when
His hair was carrot red!
Tho thirty years have set their marks
And scared his careworn face,
In mothers eyes he's vet lad
Without Times telltale trace!
Her letter thus begins: Dear boy;
1t sets his heart athrill
10 think that mother knows him as
A little shaver still!
A mothers love is as a charm
The sesame of youth!
One feels that age has naught to do
With Love or Life or Truth,
Whene'er he gets letter from
His mother far away,
Who sees naught but the guileless child
Behind the man grown gray.

that he receives budded or grated

country and take orders for grated or;
budded nut trees Of approved and we'll
known varieties, and fill these orders
with worthless Seeding stock. Be
fore the buyer discovers that he is the
victim of swindler. the agent is out

those agents who represent reliable
