All that's needed now is to find a lever pr buyere for the silta-and with the high rating given by the agricul- tural college scientists, that shouldn't The-Fanning Mill by Bob Carbert Fjr CEei sighs on e of the of civilization f 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.

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.
