TREAT HOGS FOR PARALYSIS

Partial or complete paralysis of the

FERTILIZERS FOR BERRIES
Tankage or Peruvian Guano, Ground
Bone, SuIphate Of Potash and

The following are recommended in
the culture OF this fruit:
Tankage or Peruvian guano, 600
pounds per acre; fine ground bone,
1000 pounds; low-grade sulphate OF

100 pounds.
All these materials may be mixed,

GOOD HINTS ABOUT FENCING
or Importance to Note Shape Of Fields
Because II Has Much to Do With
Material Needed.

When building fences note the
shape Of the fields. because It has
much to do with the amount OF fencing
and material required to inclose or re-
construct 1t.
Thus A square ten.acre field Is 40
rods each way, and will therefore need
half a mile OF fencing.
A ten.acre field four times as long
as wide is S0x20 rods, and will conse-
quently require 200 rods Of fence, or
40 rods more than before; 80 that a
square field needs less fencing than an
oblong one of the same size. This is
a point not often thought Of by good
many.
