 Two other wires fastened in the same way are placed on the posts one foot from the ground. A number Of notched boards made on the order of a swing board are placed between the wires, top and bottom about four feet apart. These boards act as a sup. port to the vines, which are trained to run along the trellis thus formed. The new shoots (next years bearing vines) as they grow are trained along the under set of boards.
 At the end of the season when the old runners are cut away the small boards are easily moved, the new vines lifted to their position of promi- hence on the top, and the lower boards are again free for the next years growth.
