When this loan is liqui dated from the district funds the levy, it is thought, can be reduced to 3 mills, and possibly as low as 2 mills. Common Colds are tho Cause of Many Serious Diseases.

Put a Bull Behind the Bars We call especial attention to the hinge joint at each intersection of stay with main bars. This itt the essential of every good wire fence. Unless the stay has a binge joint the fence cannot receive pressure from contact and right itself. All rigid stay fences have been unsatisfactory and disappointing, as they crush down and when once down, remain so. AMERICAN FENCE Is made with a hinge joint, by which the maximum of elasticity is secured and the fence ff properly stretched, remains in place indefi nitely. With the hinge joint, no amount of strain on the bars can effect the connection of stay and bar? while the opposite is true of all rigid stay fences.
