A fence with barbs is protected from . excessive pressure because the animal fears thebarbs. Remove the barbs and the greatest strength of the animal is thrown upon the fence. Hence its wires must be larger and stronger.' Therefore, to have a longlife woven-wire fence you must have a heavy fence. Among the valuable features that distinguish American Fence is the Hinged-Joint (patented). We back this feuture with all our experience as the largest makers of fence in the world. . Under side stress and strainthe resilient Hinged Joint yields to pressure and quickly returns to its old form without bending or breaking the stay wires, the strain being taken up by the heavy horizontal bars. The real test of a fence is the service you got out of it. Test, judge and compare American Fence under any and all conditions, and you will find that the steel, the structure and galvanizing are equal in durability, strength and efficiency to the hardest usage.

There are a great ouay people iu Grants Paw who will doubtles re member two years ago W'eduesday water flowed down Sixdi street from the 200-foot contour Irrigating ditch. On that occasion Grauta Pass was get ting over a three-day Fourth of July jollification and the turning in of the water at tha upper end of north Sixth street was the crowning event of the wonderfully successful celebration. The Irrigation company had worked hard with a determina tion to bring down the water on that day if such a tiling were possible, but the undertaking was of huge di mensions and it was finally decided it was unsafe to make the promise or put the event on ih-3 program, eo it came as a surprise to everybody ex cept the persons Immediately concern ed. There was a procession formed uy Superintendent Carner tit the north end of the street anl this consisted of all kinds of ditching machinery drawn by powerful horses and one of the wagons carried a hue bulletin board upon which was written the story of irrigation. At the right mo ment the band marched up the street and headed the procession and the directors of the company, In an auto mobile, led the way into the business portion of the town. The water kept even with the procession In the west gutter of Sixth street. Wheu it had reached the toe corner, a vast con course of people set up a cheer that made everything ring and when It came to the White Houso grocery, a lot of young as well, as a cumber of middle aged men, picked up some prominent citizens and rolled them into the water. The good clothes of tho victims did not restrain the mer ry revelers. The water found an opening which had been prepared for it, under the railroad truck) and went on down toward the bridge and all the way it was cheered as If it were a thing of life, which, In fact, It was. The procession finally turned west on K street to Fifth and down Fifth to Front and back to the north side.
