The Farmers Future Fence.
One of the most important b iestions
that can engage the attention orthe
farmers at the present time is that of
fencing. We know that recently
several kinds of fences have betSff tried,
but each have their defects, The
Honey Locust Hedge Feuce,eonstruct-
ed under the new system introduced
into this country by the Ontario
Hedge and Wire Fence Co, we believe
to be the fence of the future. It is
planted and finished by the Company,
which takes about four years, and theta
handed over to the patrons a complete
stock proof, a durable and ornamental
fence. ,, Farnteraehould consider the
necessity of immediate action end at
once commence planting these fences
and ornament their farms. Mr• D
Haragatt,of the Strotfotd. Hedge Pence
Co, is now convassing the Township
of Turnberry for contracts for next
spring's planting. The enterprising
farmers of the township should avail
themselves of this opportunity and
commence this•systeirl of feinting. In

first of December, about, twenty five
