RAILS AND WIRE FENCIN j.
Old Style Fencing Giving Way Slowly
But Surely to the More Mod
ern Method.

Much Of the old rail fence is still
in use in many sections. Though not
so neat and attractive as the wire or
board fence, it has some points Of adj
vantage over ether kinds. The rail
fence can be easily opened to pass
through from field to field with binder
or other machinery. Also rails make
handy cross fences or hog lot fences,
being easily taken down and put up
again, so as to change size of, or
subdivide lots or fields. About the
first rails made were split out Of
white oak and many Of these. after
40 Or 80 years use, are yet sound. The
same may be said Of chestnut rails.
but those made Of black oak are not
SO lasting. Stock, especially horses,
are seldom hurt by rail fences, yes
many are ruined or blemished for lie
by barbed wire cuts.
The barbed or woven wire fence is
a necessity in places where little other
material is to be had, and eventually,
when the wooden iances have all rot
ted down, we must use the wire, which
is neat, looks well, takes up little o
and fewer posts than the rail fence. 1t
will stand up longer and better against
wind and proves an effective barrier
to passage Of farm stock or some wild
animals.
AS fast as needed supplant rails with
woven wire about 81 inches high of
nine strands. Two inches above it
stretch a harbed wire. This will turn
horses. cattle, hogs and sheep, but
another wire eight inches hig her
makes it safer for horses or unruly
stock. says the Farm and Home. Posts
should be placed about eight feet apart
and alternate one need only reach To
top of woven wire, and these might be
Of old rails cut five feet long. Long
posts should be OF heavy white oak
and six and one-half 10 seven feet
long, inserted two to VT and one-half
feet in ground. Stretch all wires tight
~ and anchor end or corner posts well
with heavy braces. Such a fence with
two barbed wires will be about As
inches high and cost for wire and posts
from 80 TO 80 cents per rod.

partment of agriculture. Dissolve
n ounce Of s%trychnine suiphate
in one pint of boiling water,
add a pint of thick sugar syrup
and stir. Preserve in n close vessel.
This quantity is sufficient to poison
one-half bushel of shelled corn or
other grain. Steep the corn in hot
water and allow it to soak over night.
Then drain and allow it to soak for
several hours in the poison syrup.
Corn may be rubbed in meal to remove
the excess of moisture.
This poisoned corn may be intro
duced into the runways by the use of
& dipple and a spoon. This dipple,
shown in the sketch, may be made
from q spade handle with a metal
point and IA strong bar upon which
to place the foot in forcing it Into the

a spoonful of poisoned corn dropped
into it and the hole left open. The
corn, Of course. must be put in or near
the main runways.
Trapping is a good method If fol-
lowed persistently. 1t is adapted to
small fields, where only a few gophers
are present. A small steel trap may
be employed, but there are a number
OF special gopher traps on the mar
ket. These traps must be set in the
main gopher tunnel.
Carbon bisulphide has beel used
extensively for kihlng gophers. II the
burrows are large in dry soil, however,
the gas evaporates 50 rapidly that
much of the liquid Is required to kill
the animals and the methods Is expen-
sive. If the burrows are small IN
moist soil, an ounce of the liquid to
each burrow Is sufficient. Pour the
carbon bisulphide over Il buncn Of cot
ton rags or other waste material and
push this quickly into the burrow and
close the opening. All the farmers in
a community, says the Orange Judd
Farmer, must cooperate in order to
exterminate the pocket gopher. Tn
less they are eradicated from the
neighborhood they will soon come in
a2d restock the territory.

purpose of ventilation. A floor Of
matched boards is laid on the strips.
4 hole eight inches in diameter is cut
in the center OF this floor and over it
is reversed an old tin pan, ten inches
in diameter, the sides of the pan be-
ing punched full of holes to allow
free circulation Of heat. Over this is
placed a table two feet six inches
square, with legs Az inches high.
Around the sides of this table is
tackled a curtain of felt cut from top
Il bottom at Intervals of five OF six
inches to allow the chicks to pass in

LOCUST STUMPS.
How They May Be Removed by The
Use of a Homemade Device and
Without Digging.

The best way to remove locust
stumps without digging is to use a
stump-puller and pull them u If
they are not large, one can rig up Il
homemade lever puller or twister.
The accompanying cut shows a ho,le-
made device which Will answer the
purpose If the stumps are not too
large. The upright, explains the OHIO
Farmer, should be of good material,
eight feet long, seven inches thick at
the butt and tapering to four inches
at the top. At the butt Worlise in a

seven inches wide. At 21g to three
feet from the butt bore holes through

Make Plan of Garden.

Make a careful plan beforehand Of
the garden, dividing it into plots, then
decide what is to be planted or sown
in each plot, and when planting time
comes begin at one side Of the plot,
leaving space for successive sowings or
paintings. This method will not only
save time but it will also make the

TIMELY E TALK.
Various Helpful Suggestions for the
Man Who Has Bees for Pleas
ure or Profit.

when nectar is abundant in the
fields, and your bees hesitate about
starting work in the sections but crowd
the brood nest with it, try the follow
ing plan:
When the combs are sealed at the
top in the brood chambers. mash these
cells at the top Of the brood frames
with a table fork; shut up the hive.
put the sections on, and then rap on
the hive. DO this just before dusk, and
YOU viii find the bees nicely ut work
there the next morning
1t Is not difficult to persuade any COL
Ony or bees, Of proper strength, to
work in the section; but do it by rap
ping on the hive and driving them up.
They fill themselves with honey and
go up there and work. You have per-
haps sCaritied enough cells so that they
Will have no cells except those to put
the honey in. The honey will have to
be taken out by the bees. 1t Is a forcing
process, as you might say, but it Sc
cures the result.
A colony with abundant entrance for
air is less inclined to swarm than it
otherwise would be. Raising the hive
by putting an inch block under each
corner, and leaving the hive open all
around, is an excellent method fer Civ
ing plenty of air. But do not expect
that the plan Of giving plenty of air
will entirely suffice to keep bees from
swaTming.

transferring, but have given the fol-
lowing the preference. These direc-
tons will be applicable only to those
who have bees in frame hives.
II the bees to be transferred are in

been built down to the bottom, cut
down the box to the depth of the
comb, turn the bottom side up, and
