Temporary Fencing

The zigzag plan of building témpora ry board f enees is recommended by a correspondent of Home and Farm, who says: If the boards are 16 feet long, sei the posts 73 feet apart and in a straight line. Put the boards on as shown in sketch, nailing one panel on one side of the post and the next one on the other, with the post in the center oi the board on the opposite side of the board. This niethod of putting on boards bends them slightly, and the boards are inclined to hug to the post. In case an animal pushes a board loose from the post if it is not broken it will spring back to its place, making it appear tight, thus presenting no inducement to stock to jump. You will hardly realize how much time will be saved in putting up a long string of' fence by not having to cut off the boards. Just think of building a fence without a handsaw !
