Pittsburgh Perfect"
Fences The Best Because
1. Staysjare Electrically Welded to the strands forming a perfect union
and ah amalgamation with the strands not found in any other fence.
2. All stay wires are made as heavy as intermediate line wires. A
fence, like a chain, is only as strong as the lightest material in it. Think
this over carefully.
3. No wraps to get looso. to hold moisture and cause rust.
i.    No projections to injuro stoisk or tear wool from she&p.
5 Stronger at the joints than any other fence. Welded together with
electricity.
6.   Guaranteed that the wire is not injured at the joints.
CTuaranteed adjustable to uneven ground.
Guaranteed that stays will non separate from joints.
Guaranteed all right in every particular.
Made by the most modern process and on the  latest improved  machinery.
11.   Most of the weak points in other fences aro on account of  the  <vay
he stays are fastened.
Our stays are amalgamatdd with the strands by means of electricity   and
the strength of th« fence increased a hundredfold over  the   strength  cf  a
fence where the stays are wr.ipo ut or clamped on the strands.
You may pay more money for other fences but you cannot get as good a
fence as "Pittsburgh Perfect."

■jfflfh          Happenings of Interest Gathered for tbe "
__W/L__                       Benefit of Oar "Readers.
Distinguished Guest.
Of the hig crowd of people who
yisited the new high school huilding
recently, D. Gibhs Palmer, the county
juvenile officer, was prohahly the
most distinguished visitor of them all,
in one sense of the word, for so far
as known he was the only one present
who attended school in the first school
house ever built in Jackson city. This
was in 1841, when a little one story
frame building stood on the knoll
where the old "West Side high school
now stands. Dr. Chittock, James Burns
and Ben Porter are the only ones residing here now, to Mr. Palmer's
knowledge, besides himself, who were
here in 1841. The pioneer school building was about 18x24 feet. Mr. Palmer
thinks it was never painted. The
knoll on which it stood was about
twenty-five feet higher than now, having been graded off.—Jackson Patriot.
Institute On Wheels.
The farmers' institute train now
making a tour of southern Michigan,
is due to arrive in Chelsea at 9:30
Monday morning, April 6.
Among the lecturers on the train
will be Hon. H. S. Earle, state highway commissioner, who will have
charts, drawings, etc., showing how
roads can be built and kept in repair as well as a full line of samples of road materials. A few of the
other topics to be. taken up are fruit
growing, corn culture, dairying, poultry raising, fertilizers, etc.
Everyone interested is invited to attend. Ladies will be especially pleased with the poultry exhibit. Bring
sample of milk for testing and of insects for names and remedies. Be on
hand promptly and bring your neighbors.—Chelsea Tribunte.
Come In Handy.
The automatic sprinkler with which
the new Binder twine plant at the prison is equipped proved entirely satisfactory yesterday, when occasion arose
to test it. Fire broke out there about
g o'clock. The sprinkler was put in
operation, and before the blaze could
enlarge to any extent the sprinkler
-put the flames all to the had. The
city department was called out, but
the fire was extinguished when the
firemen arrived. The blaze started
from electric wiring, a spark igniting
with some twine material. No damage was  done.—Jackson Patriot.
Old Relic.
Harvey Lewis brought to this office
one day last week a relic which is
worthy of mention. It is a piece of
homespun and woven bed-quilt made
by his great grandmother over 150
years old, ap$ has been handed down
through generations. At the time the
British marched through and took New
York hia great grandparents packed
the quilt with other goods and took
them to Ohio. A relative a few years
ago found the old quilt, and after washing it cut it into blocks and distributed the pieces among the ancestors.—
Stockbridge Brief.
Serious Accident.
While at work in his blacksmith
shop "Monday, Theodore Morschheuser
was struck in the eye by a punch and
that member injured so that he will
lose the sight. He asked a farmer to
strike the punch with the sledge, but
the blow was not well directed and a
strip of iron on which he was holding
the punch was strick instead of the
punch. It rebounded, throwing the
punch into the air, and it struck his
eye, making a painful and serious
wound. It is feared that he will lose
the   sight.—Manchester  Enterprise.
Where Did It Come From?
Just as those dark storm clouds
were passing over the city yesterday
Patrolman Parker heard something
strike the ground beside him, and looking down he spied a peculiar stone
about the size of a hen's egg. The
stone "had melted and hardened again,
leaving it in peculiar shape. Officer
Parker took the stone to police headquarters, where it is hoped sbnie scientist will call and explain whether this
rock came from Jupiter or Mars.—

-A HOME-MADE BROODER.
One Which Is  Said to Give  Satisfac
tory Service.
the accompanying sketch shows
how to construct a brooder that will
not require much time to make, says a
correspondent in the Poultry Keeper.
Inexpensive Brooder.
Secure a box and in the center of the
bottom cut a circular hole just large
enough to receive a common tomato
can. Holes are punched in the side of
the can and also a hole cut in its bottom large enough for a 1%-inch pipe.
A hole lc then cut in the top of the
box for this pipe to extend through
from tho top of the tomato can, which
rests on the bottom of the box, as
shown. A common lamp furnishes the
heat to the radiator formed by the tomato can.
