Il found some simple devices for prevent
ing damage to stock bythis fence. noticed
on one clean thrifty-looking farm, which
was nearly all fenced by the barbed wire,
that about six common laths were just tied
at regular distances, by a small piece of wire
to the barbed wire on each panel. This
served TO make the fence plainly visible.
Another, and [ think a much better plan,
that I observed was tying common laths to
the top wire. The best plan | saw was
swinging a six-inch board from the top wire.
This is substantial enough to be observed by
any animal having ordinary sight. All these
devices have more or less merit ; all are good
and cheap, and quite durable, and all are
quite easily applied without the outlay OF
much time or money. [ think | have a plan
which will be more effective, and every way
cheaper. I would collect the brush that lies
rotting on many farms, and tie by a piece of
common wire to the top wire of fence. This
would hang down much lower, and be much
more easily seen, and cost nothing but the
time, which can be given when nothing else
requires the especial attention of the hands.
If a farmer has no brush on his own land,
he can generally get such worthless stuff
from his neighbor for going after it. In an
entirely timberless country, I would suggest
coarse slough grass, which will answer every
purpose except, perhaps, that it might be
eaten by the animals restrained.
