We have given spec- ial attention to it, and can now give almost any kind of fencing required. Wo are now taking or- ders so as to insure it being here when wanted. There will be a big rush this season for fencing. The fence we like hest is called the " Ideal." It is correctly named, for it is the fanners' ideal fencing. We believe it is the strongest and best fence for the least money that has been put on the market. The life of a fence is the life of its weakest point This fence is Inane of all No. 9 hard steel galvanized wire (No. 9. is -the large wire), that is, latterals, up- rights and locks are all heavy wire, and, therefore, has no weak points.

You can make it more elaborate, you can decorate it, em- bellish it, use costly materials and all that ; BUT FOR $100 A PAIR YOU CANNOT MAKE A BE'T'TER SHOE THAN "QUEEN QUALITY," HAVING REGARD SOLELY TO THE TWO GREAT ESSENTIALS OF FIT AND STYLE. This means that mechanically it is perfect. As for its ap- pearance, the fact that hundreds of thousands of women choose it instantly above all other shoes would seem to in- dicate that it is attractive.
