"Pittsburgh Perfect"
Fences The Best Because
1. Sfcayslare Electrically Welded to the strands forming a perfect union
aud »n 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 tho lightest material in it. Think
this over carefully.
3. No wraps to got loose, to hold moisture and cause rust.
4. No projections to injure stock or tear wool from sheep.
^      S     Stronger at the joints than any other fence.     Welded together with
electricity.
6. Guaranteed that the wire is not injured at the joints
7. Guaranteed adjustable to uneven ground.
8. Guaranteed that stays will not separate from joints.
„   9.   Guaranteed all right in every particular.
10. Made by the most modern process and on the latest improved machinery.
11. Most of the weak points in other fences are on account of  the way
he stays are fastened,"
Our stavs are atnalgainatdd with the strands by means of electricity and
the strength of the fence increased a hundredfold over the strength of a
fence where the stays are wrapped or clamped on the strands.
You may pay more money"for other fences but you cannot get as good a
fence ,vs "Pittsburgh Perfect."

1 IMPLEMENT DEPARTMENT LOOKS
I BRIGHTER.
i    V. V. Green, superintendent of the
■ implement and machinery department
, of  the Michigan  State  Fair,  reports
that space which has been assigned to
; his  department   is   well   taken,  and
\ present indications are that every foot
j of available space will be gone be-
| fore the fair opens.   The 1907 maehin-
j ery exhibit was very large, in fact it
i was supposed to be as extensive as
' could ever be made; but this year it is
| very apparent that the number of ex-
j hibits -will be greatly increased, and
j there  are  a number  of new  things
• never before shown which will be seen
J at the coming fair.   There is no de-
; partment of the state fair that is of
! such educational interest to the farmer as the machinery department.   Superintendent Green, who is secretary
and treasurer of the "Onion Transfer
and  Storage company of Detroit, ia
thoroughly versed in the handling of
all kinds of machinery, having spent
the greater portion of his life at that
business,   and  it  may  be   depended
upon that he will maintain the highest
possible standard in his department,
which   will   be   appreciated   by   the
farmers of the state.

for a few minutes before serving. Then
put them, one at a time, in a small
bag containing a little powdered sugar
and shake well. In this way doughnuts several days old seem nearly as
fresh as those just made.

Cut beefsteak in large paeces, dip in
cold water, flour, and fry in hot lard.
Try this and you. will taste a delicious
piece of juicy steak.
