improperly stretched and loosely
hung is not much good. Hogs go
under it, horses and cattle ride it
down from the top, and now and
then a big bull goes straight through
it. Valuable time is wasted in trying
to keep it up.
Here are some ideas that will help
in erecting tight woven-wire fence
that will last for many years.
l. My assembly of corner posts
for woven-wire is the same as for
barbed-wire, namely, three big
posts set feet in the ground and
8 feet apart. At the bottom these
three big posts are connected by
2x6 plank nailed onto the posts
inches up from the ground. There
the three posts. These are 2x6s. (See
diagram, page g.
2. Unroll about Is feet of your
woven-wire, set roll on end bot
tom down. Now undo two or three
stay or vertical wires at end of fenc-
ing. This leaves about Is inches of
the line wires unsupported. Wrap
these line wires around the big, first
end or corner post and then onto
the line wire. Five or six wraps
around the line wire will be enough.
Be sure the first stay wire in the
fencing is straight up and down,
parallel with the end post. Staple
the wires you have wrapped around
the end post.
Roll Out Wire
8. Unroll the whole roll of wire.
If it is a 20-rod roll, splice it to the
end of another piece of woven-wire
20 rods long. Use the telephone
mans method of splicing. A splicing
tool helps greatly. In my woven
wire fences place an end assembly
of posts and braces every 40 rods
as contrasted to 80 rods for barbed-
wire alone. The woven-wire is now
all unrolled and lies on ground with
bottom toward the fence posts. In
woven-wire fencing I put all posts
8 feet apart.
4. Set stretcher post in front of
the first big end post, or 10 feet
away from post Nail a 2x6 from
top of stretcher post to top of end
post. This is all temporary. Next,
