FENCES AIV.PFENCING
Though I have already - indicated,
incidentally, my decided objections to
our prevalent systein of Fencing, I
'deem the subject of ' such importance
that Lcboose to discuss it directly.—
Excessive fencing is. peculiarly an
American abuse, which urgently cries
for reform
Solomon Robiußon says the fence
tax is the heaviest of our farmers'
taxes: .I. add, that it is the most need-
less and indefensible
_pigllviays we must have, and peo
ple,mustitraverse them ; but this gives
them no right to trample down or oth
erwise injure the crops growing on
either side. In France, and other
parts of Europe, you see grass and
grain growing luxuriantly up to the
very edge of 'the beaten track, with
nothing likea,fencp between them.—
..-Yet: those dope are 'nowise injured or
disturbed 'by ,wayfarers. Whoever
chooses to inipel animals along those
roads meet, take care to have them
'completely - tinder' etibjectiim, and must
see that they do - no - harm to whatover
grows by the weyside
In this country, cattle-driving, ex
cePt'onsmall scale, and for short
distances, has nearly been superseded
by 'railroads. The great droves for-
merly reaching the Atlantic sea board
on fobt, frbni Ohio or farther West,
are now huddled into care and hurried
through in far less time, and with less
waste of flesh ;lint - they reach us fe
vered, bruised, and every way un-
wholesome. Every animal should be
turned out to grass, after a railroad
journey of more than twelve hours,
and left there a fall month before be
is taken to the slaughter-pen. We
must have many more deaths per
annum in this city, than if the animals
on which we subsist were killed in a
condition which rendered them fit for
human food. ;
Ultimately, our fresh Beef, Mutton,
and pork, will come to us from the
Prairies in refrigerating cars—each
auimal buying been killed while in
perfeet 'health, unfeVered and untor
tured by days of cramped, galled, and
thirsty suffering, ;on the cars. This
will leave their offal, including a large
portion of their bones, to enrich the
fields whence their sustenance was
drawn and from which it should never
be' taken. The cost of transporting the
meat, hides. and tallow, in such cars,
would be less than that of bringing
through the animals on their legs;
while . the danger ' of putrefaction
might be utterly precluded.
But to return to fencing :
Our growing plants must be preser
ved from animal ravage;but it is most
unjust to impose the cost of this pro
tection on the growers. Whoever
chooses to rear or buy animals must
take care that they do not•infest and
despoil his neighbors. Whoever sees
tit to turn animals into the street,
should send some ono with them who
will be sure to keep them out of mis
chief, which browsing young trees in
a forest clearly is.
If the inhabitants of a settlement or
village surounded by open prairie, see
fit to pasture their cattle thoreon,tbey
should send them out each morning
in the keeping of a well-mounted
herdsman, whose duty should be sum
med up in keeping them from evil-do
ing by day and bringing them safely
. back to their yard or yards et night
fall.. •,
Fencing bears with special severity
on the pioaeor class who are least able
to afford the outlay. The "clearing"
of the Veneer's first. year in the wil
- being enlarged by ax and fire
needsi new and far longer onviron
merit next year; and so through sub
sequent yearatntil clearing is at an
unr 110-lay -oioncer is thus impelled
d es _oto a large .i‘are of his time to
fa:le - Ink ; and yet bis
• • .._ . 'us often come
to grief through the dep,,,i : aations of
his own neighbors breechy caw,
Fences produce nothing but ,
come bushes, briars and weeds. Sol
far as' they,_:l4y be necessary,' they
'are a deplorable necessity. When
constructed whore they are not really
needed, they evince costly folly. I
think I could point out farms which
would not- Roll to-day for the cost of
rebuilding their present fences.
We cannot make open drains or
ditches serve for fences in this coun
try, as they sometimes do in milder
and more equable climates, because
our eovero frosts would heave and
crumbld,owk banks if: nearly perpen
dicular, sloping them at length in
places so that . animals might cross
them at leisure. Nor have we, so far
north as this city, had much success
with hedges, for like reason. There
is scarcely a hedge-plant at once effi
cient in stopping animals and so hardy
as to defy the severity, or rather tho
caprice, of our winters. I scarcely
know a hedge which is not either inef
ficient or too costly for the average
farmer; and then a hedge is a fixture,
whereas we often need to move or de
molish our fences.
Wire fences are least obnoxious to
this objection; they aro very easily
removed ; but a careless teamster, a
stupid animal, or a clumsy friend,
easily ?takes a breach in one that is
not so easily repaired. Of the few
wire fences 'within my knowledge,
hardly one has remained entire and
efficient after standing two or three
years.
Stone walls, well built on raised
foundations of dry earth, are enduring
and quite effective, but very- costly.—
My best have cost me at least $5 per
rod, though the raw material was
abundant and accessible. I doubt
that any good wall is built, with labor
at present prices, for less than $3 per
rod. ,Perhaps I should account this
costliness a merit, since it must impel
farmers to study how to make few
fences serve their turn.
Bail fences will be constructed only
where timber is very abundant, of lit
tle value, and easily split. Whenever
the burning of timber to be rid of it
has ceased, there the making of rail
fences must be near its end.
Where fences must still be main
tained, I apprehend that poets and
boards are the cheapest material.—
Though pine lumber grows dear, hem
lock atilt abounds, and the rapid de
struction of trees for their bark to be
used in tanning must give us cheap
hemlock boards throughout many, en
suing years. Spruce, Tamarack, and
other evergreens from our northern
swamps, will come into play after
hemlock shall have been exhausted.:
As for posts, Red Cedar is a gener
al favorite ; and this tree seems to be
rapidly multiplying hereabout. I judge
that farmers,who have it not, might
wisely order it, from a nursery and
give it an - experimental trial. It is
hardy; it is clean;
o it makes but little
shade; and it'seems to fear no insect
whatever: It flourishes on rocky,
thin soils; and a grove of it is pleas
ant to the sight—at least, to mine.
Locust is more widely known and
esteemed; but the borer has prov
ed destractive to' it on very many
farms, though not on mine. I like it
well, and mean to multiply it exten
sively by drilling the seed in rich gar
den soil and transplanting to rocky
woodland, when two years old. Sow
ing the seed among rocks and bushes
I have tried rather extensively, with
poor success. If it germinates at all
the young tree is so tiny and feeble
that bushes, weeds and grass, overtop
and smother it.
That a post set top-end down will
last many years longer than if
set as it grow, I do firmly believe,
though I cannot attest it from person
al observation. I understand the rea
son to be this: Trees absorb or suck
up moisture from the earth; and the
particles which compose them are so
combined and adjusted as to facilitate
this operation. Plant a post deeply
and firmly in the ground, butt end
downward, and it will continue to ab
sorb moisture from the earth as it did
when alive; and the post, thus mois
tened today and dried by wind and
sun to-morrow, is thereby subjected
to more rapid disintegration and de
cay than when reversed.
My general conclusion is that the
good farmer will have fewer and bet
ter fences than his thriftless neighbor,
and that gaudy' and plan to
make fewer and fewer rods of fence
servo his needs, taking care that all
he retains shall be perfect and conolu-
sive. Breeohy cattle are a sad affiic•
Lion alike to their owner and his
neighbor; and shaky, rotting, tumble
down fences, are justly responsible for
their perverse education.
