cIared today that they have every
reason to believe that the important
-GaIician city of Stanislau has been
captured by Russians, though they
disclaimed possession of any infor-
nation from official sources.

ABOUT THE FENCES

The Government has just issued a
good bulletin on fences, entitled,
Cost of Fencing Farms in the North
Central States" Here is the gist of
the paper:
Nearly two-thirds of the farm
farm fences in Ohio are of woven
wire.
Rails split Tor fences thirty years
ago cost about $3.50 per hundred at
that time. and the same rails that
are still in good condition sell for
81 or SO per hundred, or enough to
buy good woven wire fence.
The best way to remove a hedge
fence is to pull it out by the roots
with a tractor or heavy team.
Stone walls make poor fences for
sheep or goats, which climb them
readily.
Farms having the greatest amount
of frontage on public highways us
ually require the most fence.
Barbed wire makes a satisfactory
fence where cattle only are to be con-
sidered.
Woven wire is suitable for hog
pastures and for fencing horses, the
colts, sheep and small stock.
A woven wire fence made entirely
of No. wire will last about twenty
one years, according to estimates col
lected by the Government.
A woven wire fence made with No.
9 top and bottom wires and No. 10
laterals and stays will last about 19
Years.
A fence with No. 10 top and bot
tom wires and No. IL laterals and
stays will last for about II years.
A No. IL top and bottom wire and
No. IA laterals and stays will last a
little less than 13 years.
No. or larger wires are now
recognized as the most economical
for permanent fencing.
When fences are made of woven
wire with barbed wire above, have
the woven wire high enough so that
large hogs cannot get their heads
over il and break it down.
A good general-purpose wover
wire fence is one about four feet in
height made up of ten line wires, the
bottom wires being three inches
lapart.
! When buying fencing, a good plar
is 70 consider the weight per rod
The heavier the fence is the Longer

MEAD hoy ACCIDENTALLY SHOT
WHILE OUT HUNTING


The News has to chronicle this
week another Of those sad and de-
plorable accidents resulting from
the careless handling of firearms By
boys. The accident occurred last
Saturday near Mead, when Robert
Edelin,, the 15-year-old son of a
prominent merchant of that place,
was seriously wounded while in the
company of some playmates. The
boys were all out on a hunt. Felix
Honeysuckle, another boy, ged 13,
was carrying a shotgun loaded with
birdshot. The rest of the boys had
stopped for a moment to play with
with some glass which they had run
across. and Felix dropped the gun
he was carrying in order to join in
with them. Upon being dropped the
gun was discharged, and the entire
load of shot struck the Edelin boy
just above the left ankle. mafing an
awful wound. Help was summoned
at once and the injured lad was im-

SOME BAD PAVING

Considerable complaint has been
and is being made regarding the paw
ing on Second Avenue. This paw
ing is in bad condition. and the City
Council has directed the contractors
to see that it is repaired. The con-
tractors promised to do this repair
work, but thus far nothing has been
done. 1t is said by some that the
contractors period of maintenance
has expired, and that they cannot be
made to do the work. In this event,
the expense would fall on the prop
erty owners. However. the matter
will be taken up at an early meeting
of the Council, and il is likely that
some definite action will be taken.

INDIAN BILLS IN THE SENATE


The fight for the Choctaw and
Chickasaw per capita payments of
$500 and 5000 is now resting in the
Senate. after the Oklahoma members
and representatives, of the two In
dian tribes in Oklahoma succeeded
in getting the measure through the
House and favorably reported upon
by the Senate Committee on Indian
Affairs
The Subcommittee on Indian At
fairs has favorably reported the bill
providing for the sale of coal and
asphalt deposits underlying the geo
graphical mineral land of the Choc-
tows and Chickasaws in tracts Of
$50 acres. A favorable report from
the entire committee is looked for
by not later than April 1st. Since
one of the most essential points was
won by those contending for the sale
in a recommendation from the In
dian Department sent to Congress
this week.
OF the surface lands yet to be sold
by the Government under previous
legislation, the Muskogee Indian of
flee announces that there are still
$4,000 acres of segregated land to
be sold, and S2S.52O acres of timber
land which will be offered for sale
the second time this fall. The seq
regated lands will probably be reap
praised, particularly as to improve
ments thereon.
