against wire fenced in the past. , It is composed of
any desired number of gal vanked steel wires, placed

two half inch hall -round steel bars, oue on each side
of the wires, with groove between to ilt tightly on
the wireS, and bolted with four bolls holding them
firmly to ether and preventing the wires from slid-
ing up o down. It is also arranged that the actions
of beet e. id cold in expanding and contracting the
wires are thoroughly controlled by tighteners, and
the fence can be kept taut at all searrens of the year.
