HISTORY SHOWN By FENCES
Various Kinds That Have Been In Use
NJ Different Times Mark the

The progress and condition OF our
settlements can be traced 10 our
fences. writes Alice Morse Earle. In
-Home Life In Colonial Days" As
Indians disappeared or succumbed, the
solid row OF pales tstockadel gave
place 70 q log fence. which served well
to keep out depredatory animals. The
dangers from Indians or wild animals
entirely disappeared. boards were still
not oyer-plenty. and the strength OF
the owner could not be overspent on
unnecessary fencing. Then came the
double-rail fence; two rails. held In
place. one above the other. at each
joining. by four crossed sticks. II

should be horse-high. bull-proof and
pIg-tight. Then came stone walls.
showing a thorough clearing and tam
ing of the land. The succeeding half
high" stone wall-a foot or two high.
with a single rail on top-showed that
stones were not as plentiful In the
fields as In early days. The snake
fence" or virginia fence" so COM
mon In the southern states, utilized
the second growth of forest trees. The
split-rail fence. four or five rails In
height. was set at intervals with posts.
pierced with holes TO hold the ends
Of the rails. These were used to
some extent In the East; but our west
ern states were fenced throughout with
rails split by sturdy pioneer rail-
spgtters. among them young Abraham
Lincoln. Board fences showed the day
of the sawmill and It's plentiful supply;
the wire fences of today equally prove
the decrease of our forests and our
wood. and the growth of our mineral
supplies and manufactures OF metals
Thus even our fences might be called
historical monuments.
