notable result of yesterday's elec tion in Detroit is the defeat of Tierney and Addison in the twelfth ward Tierney bas a bad pre eminence in the council as a member of what Is generally believed to be a He is under indictment for alley ed corruption and secured his i enoraination no doubt with a view to vindication Ad dison the Republican candidate bas not been in the council and is not under indictment He is regarded however by those best com petent to judge as an unfit manto represent the people of the twelfth and it has been openly charged that his nomination was really in interest However this may be the two together unquestionably represented the worst elements of the ward and relied on them for support That their reliance failed shows what we have always insisted that in every ward of the city even those most strik ingly misrepresented in the council the bet ter element is in the majority The result shows something more than this It shows the weakness and folly of yielding to the control of the worser elements in ward polities on the ground that it is of nc use to Up to noon of "Monday the revolt against Tierney and Add son was without a candidate It was not until 3 in the af ternoon that Brennan accepted his nomination and a good many even of those who recognized most clearly the need of such a nomination were afraid it was too late But it was not too late All that the decent citizens of the ward needed was an opportunity to make an effec tive pi otest against what Tierney and Addi son stood for When the opportunity was given they availed themselves of it with an alacrity which must have surprised the heelers and petty partisans who have been accus tomed so long to have their own way while the decent citizens meekly submitted The lesson of this victory over men and misgovernment is that test against these is of use and docs When the citizen who is tired of misrepre sentation in the council or anywhere else feels tempted again to say that it is of no use to that the caucus runs things and he cannot be heard in the caucus let him recall the twelfth ward and the municipal election of yesterday AV hen men like Tierney can be beaten under such circumstances with an eleventh hour candidate the cause of reform in municipal government is certainly hope ful Drimit osier 62 ana Lsrued street ww London (Eos) Office7 310 Strand

on the farm is no inconsiderable ex pense and in very many eases a good per cent of this at least could be dispensed with On a argo number of farms there is more or loss needless fencing that not only adds to the expense in keeping up but also occupies land hat could bo made to yield profitable rather than to be an expense Whatever fencing is necessary to keep out side stock from the crops and to afford pas turage for what is kept on the farm should he efficient and durable Under resent condi tions a fence with tho posts si eight feet apart and with two good planks at the bottom and lour barb wires cbo this will prove the most economical when these two items are taken into consideration while there is a saving of land over what would be necessary if a rail fence were built It is very questionable whether the dividing of the farm into small fields with the idea of being able to pja turo can be made profitable if the value of the land the Cost of tho fences and the expense of keeping up is considered While occasionally there may be conditions when it might be found a good plan to pas ture the fields after the crop is taken off with the improved machinery that we now have to harvest the crops this will only happen oc casionally Much the better plan in a major ity of easesis to provide a sufficient acreage of pasture seeded down to a good variety of grasses and divided so that the largest amount of benefit can ba derived Then put tlie cul tivated land as nearly as possible into one field If it is considered profitable to pasture the fields as is the plan in many localities divide the farm into good sized fields so that it can be fenced to good advantage and then plan the crops so that such as ature at about the same time can be grown in the same field so that when they are harvested the stock can be turned in Either of these plans will greatly reduce the amount of fencing over an attempt to divide the farm so that each vari etv of crops can be grown in a separate field It will save some labor to pasture tl sto in the fields and often more or less feeding can be done there especially in the fall before cold weather sets in and the manure be dropped iu the fields saving the work of haul ing the feed to the feed lots and haul ng out the manure But this can be done with good sized fields fully as well as with the term all cut up by fences A little time spent now in looking over the farm and planning a division so that as little fencing as possible will be necessary can be made very profitable as there is usually time now to make the necessary
