134 FARMING ON FACTORY LINES 



When it is desired to cut each crop more than once, 

 or when the different plots are tilled and re-sown, a 

 second fence is necessary in order to prevent the stock 

 from unduly trampling the second growth or the 

 succeeding crop. Two strands of wire suffice for this 

 latter fence, if the stock are only allowed to remain 

 on the land whilst consuming the tares supplied to 

 them, but if the stock are fed entirely on the soiling 

 crop — that is, no pasture is available — a three-wire 

 strand fence or a woven wire fence will be necessary.
