Gated and forcing two men to swim
the river. He then entered the saloon

bartender's chest.
The bartender drew an automatic re-

LIVE FENCE POSTS,
A NEW Experiment
ON DAKOTA RANCHES
Aberdeen Man Claims He Hal
Discovered Best Method
to Enclose Pastures.

Aberdeen. s. D.. Nov Living
fence posts are a possibility in South
Dakota If the farmers of the state
will benefit by some experiments that
have been conducted for a number Of
years by John Ronayne Of this city.
Mr.. Rcnayne's discovery nay sound
rather impossible to many persons at
first thought. but nevertheless. accord
ing to Mr.. Ronayne, living fence posts
may be had for the growing Of them,
MIR. Ronayne, who has been study
ing his experiment for a umbe OF
years, has tested it and found ii abb
solutely satisfactory. He has developed
a willow of rapid growth, which at
the end of the fourth year will be large
enough to hold three strands Of fence
wire. Mr.. Ronayne's scheme is for
farmers to plant the slips of the will
lows at a tender age at the usual fence
post distance on the land he wishes
fenced, and let them remain there for
several seasons. At the end OF the
third year the trees will be strong
enough to enclose young cattle and at
the end of the fourth or fifth yea to
enclose cattle Of any age.
These willows offer a double advan-
tage for they rot only make a per-
manent fence, but they give cattle an
excellent shade through the summer
Probably the willows would not be rs
desirable for tillable land. but for en-
pastures they should be a greal
success.
