sighs on e of the of civilization

is the erection of a fence. When the
first settlers came to We country, one
of the first things they built after they
had a roof over their heads, was a
fence to keep their stook close to the
buildings and away from the maraud-,
ing wild animals, Many of these fences
were made from the stump, of the
trees torn out to provide room for the
cultivated crops. Some were made
from poles and they were the prede-
cessors of the more recent rail fences.
Some of the early settlers even went
so far as to erect high, spiked-top
fences, to keep their enemies out, and
we presume, their friends in.
Since then we have seen a wide-
spread in fence building habits, We
had the straight rail fence, the stone
fence, the zig-zag fence of rails, the
board fence, the barbed wire, hand
woven wire, the machine woven net
fence, and more recently the single
wire electric fence. You'll find some
of each of these still right here in
Western Ontario. The stone fences for
example, will probably live on for
generations, as they already have, al-
though some of the farmers are bring-
ing in bull dozers and digging holes
in which to bury the stones that the
early settlers spent years and years
collecting from the fields. The stone
fences were built from necessity
rather than choice, and in some areas
farmers are still unearthing wagon
loads of atones every year, despite
hundreds of years of work. These
stones keep working up with every
cultivation.
The rail fences are rapidly becoming
fire wood, as folks try to clean away
the weeds that grow among the rails.
Some still are to be found but they
are becoming fewer every year. The
wir e fences are replacing those old
landmarks, But even the woven wire
fences are taking a back seat these
days to the lively little one-wire or
two-wire electric fences. The Depart-
ment of Highways still prefer the wov-
en wire fences for their road sides, but
many farmers are now using electric
fences for roadsides as well as for
dividing their fields and keeping the
stock in, or out, as the case may be.
There Is nothing so bandy as an
electric fence well erected, A few
stakes, a few insulators, a roll of barb-
ed wire, a hot shot battery, and you are
in business. It is Ideal for pasture ro-
tation. For temporary pastures, for
making laneways of temporary nature,
and one of the greatest steps in our
civilized world, in controlling hard to
fence horses, cattle and hogs. If you
have ever stood on wet grass in leather
soled shoes and thken hold of an elec-
tric fence that is turned on full, you
will appreciate what .we -mean. It is
fool proof control over those
horses that insist upon leaning over
the fence to take advantage of the'
greener pastures on the other side. It
is ideal for keeping hogs from rooting
under fences and for keeping those
breechy cows at home where they be-.
long.
There has been a revolution in the
fencing business since the clays of the
stump, stone and rail fences, but we
still are faced with the job of fixing
fences every spring, year in and year
out. As long as we have livestock we'll
need fences and men to fix them.

At times most of us have looked at purse, wallet or
bank-book, and wondered : "Where does the money go?"
Each year we.at Imperial add up the company's bills
to see what happened to the money we received in the
previous 12 months for the gasoline, fuel oil and other
products we sell. Here's where each dollar of Imperial's
1952 income went:
CRUDE OIL and otner raw materials we bought, plus
freight, took more than half of each dollar,
OPERATING expenses took more than 28 cents. This
was the cost of searching for and producing crude oil,
and of manufacturing and marketing the hundreds of
products we supplied for thousands of uses, Through-
out the year high quality products were made available
where and when you needed them.
TAXES to provincial and federal governments took 10
cents, And this did not include gasoline tax, which—
depending on where you live—took from 24 to 36
cents out of every dollar you spent for standard grade
gasoline.
I:IA/WENDS paid to shareholders for use of plants
and equipment amounted to 4_06 ennrs.
TO REPLACE worn out equipment and to make sure
that we can supply your needs in the future 3.42 cents
was put back into the business.
