COST OF FENCING.
Planter anil Farmer.
In tills day of degenerate politicians,
wlu> never attempt to enlighten the people
but follow in the wake.if cruite public opin
ion, as sharks In the wake of a vessel, who
listen for the '‘vox populi" with ears as
erect as the wild In.iian who catches tl6
■our.d of his <rame upon the passing breeze
who an* all for personal success, and noth
ing for principle or the common weal —
there Is no hope for us but to await a
change In the tide, and hope almost against
hope, until abetter day will dawn. Some
year nr so ago there appeared In an agri
cultural paper the broad assertion that
the cost of fencing in the State of Penn
sylvania '-asequal to the whole value of
the live stock In the State. This was so
remarkable a statement as at once to at
tract our attention.
To make some approximate estimate of
the cost or fencing to the people of Virgin-
ia is the object of the present article, and
whilst the data are Insufficient or Insuffi
ciently accurate, perhaps, to arrive at a
high degree of approximation, low estl-
inates have U-en advisedly taken, that the
actual costs shall rather exceed, than fall
phnrt of the results obtained.
a the statistics of agriculture in lSln,
welind that in tin* State of Virginia, as at
present organized, there were 73.819 farms of
all sizes, and thatof Improved lands, exclu
sion of wood lands and oilier unimproved
lands there were, fi,lG3.01<l acres. This gives
110 acres as the average sizeof the farm of
Improved lands necessitating a fence. If
w ,.n(ld ten acres additional to cover the
w.kiiI and other lands under fence, we may
purely assume, we think, that the average
farm in our State requiring to be enclosed
is about 120 acres. If we suppose tills tarra
p, ii.> in the form of a square, which of
quadrilaterals, gives the minimum fencing
f.ritie area enclosed, HwsUWif the square
would tie E4.G4 chains or as a very close ap*
proihimtioii 702 yards. IT divided into six
rectangular fields, the amount of'fencing
required would be seven times as ffiueh,
or 5,331 yards.
Allowing 400 rails for every hundred
yards of an ordinary good fence, we have
to enclose properly the average farm, 21.-
32G rails. The rails aje worth per hundred
poth tho timber and mauling about $1 Ui
Bay, upon an average through the State,
though as we have no means of verifying
this hypothesis, it may not be a very near
approximation, yet the true valuo would
probably exceed the amount assumed as
our basis, as 100 good rails would make a
cord or more of wood, and tiie cost of
mauling is from 50 to 75 cents per hundred
In different sections.*
This gives say $235 as the cost of the
rails necessary to enclose the average
square farm. Hut this being the most eco
nomical form ■ of enclosure for foursidod
areas, and not ad tiered to in practice, we
may safely assume in consideration of tho
crooked fences and irregular forms of our
Holds $250 as a still closer approximation.
Now comes iu the additional expense of
hauling aud fencing. We suppose at the
average distance of hauling rails at differ
ent seasons of the year, nine loads a day
with a two-horse team, and 33 rails at a
load would be a sufficiently high estimate.
This would make 300 rails per day. If we
assume the cost of hauling and the addi
tional expense of fencing the 300 rails to be
VJ, a low estimate, the cost of fencing the
21,330 rails would be $112, and allowing the
small amount of $3 for the irregularity of
Helds as above $1.50.
Thus we have four hundred dollars as
an approximate result for the outlay nec
essary to fence in 120 acres of land with
a good new enclosure into six lields.
It would, therefore, require an outlay* to
enclose the 73,840 farms in the manner and
upon the basis adopted, or $23,539,600, or
twenty-nine and a half millions of dollars.
The value Of all the live stock of the State
by the same census was $29,187,009, over
twenty-eight millions.
Even if a four-fteUl enclosure he adopted,
the ex(>onse would be six-sevenths ns much
or it would do away with only one divis
ion line, and the cost would be over twen
ty-live millions. We may safely assume,
then, that the cost of good new enclosures
for all the farms of the State equal the val
ue of their live stock. Granting that these
enclosures lequire to bo replaced every
twelve years, and we have here a little item
of nearly two and a half millions of annu
al expenditures sunk in fences to keep out
stock, two millions of which could bo sav
ed by requiring all farm stock to bo fenc
ed In, In standing pastures, or by movable
fences that could bo durably construc
ted.
It sh iuld be observed also that the small,
or the farm the greater the relative ex
pense, as it requires just half as many
rails to enclose 25 acres as prescribed, as it
does to enclose 100 acres. The poornsin
and small farmer is thus much mine in
terested in this matter than he has over
i»«en taught to consider, but as wo said
before, our public men and law
makers never attempt to teach the people
up to economic laws, but rather mount
the rostrum to teacli them how to vote.

are never imitated or counterfeited. This
is especially true of a family medicine, and
it is positive proof that the remedy imitat
ed is of the highest value. As soon as it
had tieen tested and proved by the whole
world that Hop Hitters was the purest,
and most valuable family medicine on
earth, many imitations sprung up and be
gan to steal the notices iu which the press
and people of the country had expressed
the merits of H. lx, and in every way try
ing to induce suffering invalids to use their
stuff instead, expecting to make money on
the credit and good name or H. B. Many
others started nostrums put up in similar
style to H. B., with variously devised
names lu which the word “Hop” or “Hops”
were used in a way to induce people to be
lieve they were the same as Hop Bitters.
All such pretended remedies or cures, no
mutter what their style or name i&, and
especially those with tho word “Hop” or
“Hops,” in their name or in anyway con
nected with them or their name, are imita
tions or counterfeits. Btuvuru of them.
Touch none of them. Use nothing but gen
uine Hop Bitters, with a bunch or cluster
of green Hopson their whito label. Trust
nothing else. Druggists and dealers are
warned against dealing in imitations or
counterfeits.
OKKKX FEY ON HOUSE PLANTS.
House plants are always infested more or
less with an insect known under the com
mon name of greenfly. Our florists usually
destroy this pest by fumigating their houses
with tobacco; and by repeating this once
a week, and sometimes not quite so often,
they are able to beep their plants in good
health and free from the fly. But where
a person only has a few window
plants, fumigating them with tobacco is
not an agreeable or easy task. Something
must nevertheless, be done to get rid of
the green fly.
Probably the simplest plan is to dip the
heads of the plants in a solution of warm
water, soap, and tobacco juice. With a tub
deep enough to admit of the tops of the
plants, one can soon give quite a number a
bath which will effeclively destroy* all the
vermin on them, and leave tho foliage in a
condition distasteful to insects for some
time N. Y. Sun.
It will be seen that in the following taken
from the N. Y. Sun. Dr. Voeleker, the ensi
lage plan Is good in tho use of maize (corn)
stalks.
DR. VOKLCKER ON ENSILAGE.
Dr. Voeleker, one of the most eminent
of European authorities on all matters per
taining to agricultural chemistry, while
acknowledging that ensilage Is adapted to
Amorican agriculture, does not think it
will be found to pay in England. He
thinks It well adapted for preserving maize
stalks, which, of course, would be a very
uncertain crop in Great Britain. He
thinks good English hay preferable to en
silage as food and that where ensilage
Is used It must bo supplemented with
hay or 6ome other dry food. We are
lnclinod to think that Dr. Voeleker is
right in adding a little dry food, with ra
tions of ensilage, even in this country, as
continuous soft, acid food must even
tually be injurious to the digestive or
gans.
Elijah Jones, Wadley, Ga., says:
“Brown’s Iron Bitters permanently cured
ms of weakness and loss of appetite.”
THE MAsHEIt MASHED.
She lightly tripped adown the street
With girlish loveliness replete,
A vision radiantly sweet.
He on the corner stood the while;
He wore a mellow melting smile;
He wore a last year’s well-brushed tile.
He gazed at her as she passed by;
He caught her lovely beamlngeye;
Her modest blushes mounted high.
Slie hurried on with quicker tread;
Unto her side ho quiokly sped—
“Your bundle’s heavy, miss,” he said.
Up the broad streot her brother eafhe -
Her spark of hope burst into flame—
She faintly murmured out his name.
Who Is this dislocated youth,
With broken nose and absent tooth?
Some one has played with him, gailsooth!
Whence came he by those darkened eyes—
Those lumps and bumps of wondorous
Bize
That on his curly pate uprise?
Some meteor on him must have crashed
To make him so supremely gashed—
What! No! It Is!!! The masher mash

The Gardeners’ Monthly says that “in
planting fruit trees aim to have them so
that the hot dry sun will not have full ef
fect on the ground about the roots. The
great heat in tills way injures the trees.
Many who have trees in gardens plant
raspberries under them. The partial
shade seems to be good for the raspber
ries, and helps the trees. Blackberries
would no doubt do well In the same situa
tion ; and strawberries, it is well known,
do not do badly grown In this way.”
Lone Ja -k, Mo., Sept., 14, 1879.
I have been using Hop Bitters, and have
received groat benefit from them for liver
complaints and malarial fever. They arc
superior to all other medieines.

Planting Trees.—Deciduous trees,
that is those whose leaves fall off every
season, may bo planted in the fall or any
time after the frosts are out of the

From a Clergyman’s Homs Comes a
Message Containing the Wisdom
of Experience.
Homo is the centre of the social system.
From it proceed the best and purest Influ
ences felt in the world, and towards It
gravitate thetenderest hopes of humanity.
For it all good men labor while their work
ing days last, and around It their last
thoughts linger lovingly when those days
are done.
Yet- home does not usually approach in
practice its own ideals. The mother is
overtaxed with household duties and the
rearing and training of her children, while
the father fights tho outside battle to win
tho wherewithal to meet exponses. Sooner
or later care and toil leave their marks. It
is true enough, as Kingley sings in the
“Three Fishers,” that
“Mgn must work, anil women must
weep,”
but too much working and weeping brush
all the bloom from life’s fruit.
Mental anxiety and lack of rest and
pleasure induce physical diseases of many
kinds; whence the need of a trustworthy
tonic to give help and strength in times of
need. Among tho good women of the laud
who have found such a sure anchor is Mrs.
A. C. George, wifo or Rev. A. C. George, D.
D., pastor of the Centenary M. E. Church,
of Chicago, whose words wo have her per
mission to quote:
“I use Parker’s Ginger Tonic in my fam
ily, and caq say that we are highly pleased
with it as a tonic. From my experience or
its value, I recommend it as a reliable fam
ily medicine.”
Please note: first, Parker’s Ginger Tonic
is not a mere essence or Ginger; second, it
contains nothing to create an appetite for
intoxicating drinks; third. It is a splendid
health restorative for all who suffer from
disordered Liver or Kidneys or any dis
ease arising from indigestion and impure
blood. Accept no substitute for it. Prices,
59c. and $1 a per bottle. It is cheaper to
buy the larger size. Hiscock Jt Co., New

OF ANOTHER AGE.

Certain Old Thing* are Done Away.
In the general reception room of the
Western Union Telegraph building on
Broadway, New York, are exhibited the
coarse, crude and clumsy instruments of
the Infancy of the telegraph. They are
only relics now. More perfect machinery
has superseded them.
Years ago what i9 now styled the old-
fashioned porous plaster did some good
service. There was then nothing better of
the kind. Now all that is changed. Science
and study have gone deeper into the se
crets of medicine and produced BENSONIS
CAPCINE POROUS PLASTER, which ein-
ixKhes all the excellencies thus far possible
in an external remedy. The old plasters
were slow—the Capcine is rapid; they were
uncertain—the Ca-pcine is sure. Cheaper
articles bear similar names. Be careful,
therefore, that some thriity druggist does
not deceive 3’ou. In the centre of the gen
uine is cut the word CAPCINE. Price 25c.

for future delivery are required to deposit with
their Commission Merchant a certain amount
to provide for possible losses that may occur,
and for which the Commission Merchant is re,
sponsible to fellow-members. When, however,
man.iiis are partially exhausted by the rise or
fall of liic market, and more arc not deposited
when called lor, the Commission Merchant has
the right to close the trade to prevent loss to
himself. Whatever balance stands to the credit
of the customer when the trade is closed, is sui>-

ed are 5c. per bushel on wheat,{equal to $250 on <
5,000 bushels; 3c. on corn, $150: 3c. on oats, $150;
$1 per bbl. on pork, $250: $2 per tierce on lard,
$5oo. These margins are asked when customers
desire to stand on trades and hold themselves
subject to additional calls. Wt will accept,
however, 2e. per bushel on grain, 60c per barrel
on pork and $1.00 per tierce onflard. when it

or may he deposited in any responsible bank in
your town, which shall advise us that they have
such an amount to our credit. This city and
towns throughout the country are full of suc
cessful operators. Our experience {and that of
all Commission Merchants agree) prompts us to
add that the successful operator stops his losses
quickjy; but when he finds himself right, stands
oil his trade, and increases his line with increas
ing protiis. This wk do without askino addi

running all the way from $400 to $l,ooo, $2,uoo,
$3,000 and $<>.000. starting with an original pur
chase or sale of 2C.OOO bushels on an Investment
of $4C0 to w hich the loss was limited, and il an

each additional lo„ or 2e.. advance, or selling
short aud follow ing up at each decline, until the
line might, tie I'.o.nou, 100,00C or more bnsliels;
larger or smaller trades with proportionate re
sults. It is this manner or operating w hich leads
to the large profits made front small investments
frequently noticed by the newspaper*, wheiher
in grain, oil. cotftnn or stocks. We suggest that
when a cusiemer has started a trade that shows
a profit of 2e. or more, a stop-loss order shall then
be given which shall save the original margins, if
not a por! ion ofthe profits. These two suggestions
weoffer as to methods of operation, confident in
their success when rigidly followed and observed.
We arc alert to advise our patrons by wire of the
state of the markets, and in format ihn which we
thick will lead to profitable operations.
