ond post TO the top Of the third for the
second space, ard so on. These braces
should be made of two strands of wire
twisted together by means Of small
rod until they are very tight. If there
is tendency TO loosen. the wire can be
further twisted and the slack taken
UP in this way. This matter Of end
braces is very important and il the soil
Is soft or II there is any danger Of their
becoming looscned get extra large
posts and set them in the ground deep
er. say three and half to four feet.
To unroll the wire. place a tough
pole four feet long through the spool
and lay II across the wagon bed. so
that the wire viii roll off the top OF
the spool. Stick small standards in
the staple at each side OF the bed to
keep the spool from rolling Oft. Take
out the end gate. fssten the wire 70 the
end post at the required height and
drive the team slowly. watching to SEQ
that the wire does not become entan,
gled as it unrolls. When YOU get TO
4 the twentieth post. stop the team.
brace the wagon 50 that il cannot .un
backward. Fasten ore end Of chain
to the spoke of the hind wheel next
I the posts. and the other end Of the
chain TO the wire. now turn tho vince
bv hand and wind the chain up on the
hub until the wire is tight. and then
staple the wire fast to the posts. II II

BARBED WIRE FENCE.
Description at ~ Tried Method by
Which one Man Can Build
One without Help.

At each end Of the line Of fence set
three posts two and half feet deep.
tamping the dirt firmly about them.
II the work is done in early spring, the
posts can be sharpcned and driven in
with maui. The posts should be just
one rod apart. The intervening posts
can be set about two feet deep and a
rod apart The value OF the barbcd
wire fence depends upon the tension
of the wires II they are loose, the
fence is ineffective and dangerous for
farm animals. If the end posts are
firmly braccd and the wires tightly
stretched al first there Will be no diff
iiculty in this respect

the accompanying Illustration is very
desirable. Between the end post and
the one next 10 il. set an extra post.
You will thus have two spaces eight
feet and three inches apart in which 70
put braces iaa). For braces use strong
material that Will not bend and then
counterbrace il by means Of wire Obj
