Stratford

The children of Stratford were dis tinctly divided today into two classes. Some were decidedly happy. others just as ghum. There was no middle class as far as sentiment went. School started today. Most of those happy were girls. The opening day is e21- registration, distribution of equip ment, and assignments. The rebuilt school in the center was ready and everything seems ready for good school year, with those attending in the Center again under one roof.
 The completion of laying rails over the new Washington bridge and the on the bridge proper for carrying of trolley and other wires, gives the bridge a near finished appearance. Special note taken of craft passing the draw of the old bridge, makes it very apparent, that because of the height of the new structure, it will not
 have to be opened nearly as many times year as was the old bridge.
 One of the next moves will be the paving of the draws followed by the
 grading and laying of the tracks on the approaches, which will then be
 naved and otherwise completed. In- dications are in favor of the big football crowd the coming fall being
 given a treat in the shape fo a non biockaded trip home after the big classic at Yale field is finished. It is probable that the concessions at Lordship will this season remain open until early in October, instead of closing the Sunday following Labor Day as was the former custom.

QUALITIES OF FARM FENCES
To Give Satisfaction Barrier Must Be
Made to Turn All Stock Without
lnjuring Them.

Farm fences should combine two
qualities. service and econOmy-says
the United States Department of
Agriculture. To give satisfactory
service the fence must be constructed
so as to turn all kinds Of stock with
out injuring them. To be economical
II must be built as cheaply as is CON
sistent with durability. The,fence that
Is erected at a. low initial cost is not
necessarily economical, for 1t may be
so short that 1t will be very eXpen-
sive In the end.
The cost OF maintaining Il farm
fence is determined by such factors
as interest, repairs, and depreciation
on the fence itself, interest on the
value Of land rendered unusable, and
the expense of keeping down weeds.
The cost Of repairs and the annual
depreciation depend largely on the
construction. If fence Is made of
a cheap grade OF material and Is
cheaply constructed II will need fire.
quent repair and will be short lived.
Such fence will have high repair
and depreciation charge, which In
most cases will more than counter
balance the increased investment cost
that the erection of more substantial
fence would require. II fence is
made OF good materlalsrand lsiprOperly
built, its repair aud depreciation
charges should be very low.
The efficiency Of fence. depends
upon the quality of wire and posts
used and upon the manner Of con
structlOn.
