that the work of putting up the fcnc-
ing in the district will be completed
by April 1. He requests the people
living within the confines Of the dis

their stock, as after that date stock
will not be allowed to run outside pas
ture fences.
The cost of the fence will be hut
six-tenths of l per cent Of the entire
valuation Of the property, the commits
siOners effecting great saving, by
utilizing the Missouri Pacific right Of
way for a great distance as the east
boundary and Black river as the wcs-
tern boundary. There are 21 miles of
woven wire fencing, which called for
10000 cedar posts. There are 10 sec
'tiOns of the fertile land Of the Black

fencing in individual farms and main
tanning them. The fencing district OK
