:The apoVe letter is both unique and
and interesting, and a feW words or
explanation will be appropriate. Mr. •
Viau is a thorough Frencb Canadian
and has only recently taken up the
N.tudy of the English language. The
Wire Fence referred to was built by
hi in over four years ago. it Wae.the
ery first piece of Frost Fence erected
in Beauharnois County, was put up
mainly for the test and, of course the'
very worst place to be found Was the
one 5L'l,cted. As per per the et -ter, an
orchard near Mr. \rum's house was the
chosen spot, the drifts here in ilie
Whale` time being often as high"
eight feet. The strain on the fence
, was therefor exceptionally severe, as
every farmer knows the snow drifts
will do more damage to the average
wire fence than years of ordinary
usage. The tensity of the steam can '
hardly he imagined, the weight of the
snow often being so great as to pull
the staples entirely out of the fence.
As eoon as the snow thaws the fence
is restapled, That is all that is fleece-

built. Mr. VIall then gees on to say .

looked upon as the best Fence on the
Market. It inight be of interrst to
tate that" THE FRUST" is the only
wire fence which has found to setts.
