Show PLAN OF IDEAL GRAPE ARBOR Up-to-Date1 Method of Construction of Vine Trellis, Together With Illustration Given. , Following is an ideal and up-to-date method of constructing a grape arbor or vine trellis: The four posts are of 4x4 material and 7 feet all, writes Vernon Hartsock. Plates and braces of the same material are joined together, as illustrated. The plates are of sufficient length to accommodate the width of woven-wire fencing designed for the top. The fence is drawn and kept taut by means of the four anchor wires and turn-buckles. The wire must be securely anchored ,in the ground by means of a Btone under ground, or else set in the ce- Grapo Arbor or Vine Trellis. ment, and should be of woven wire cable to withstand the strain. The bars and stays of the fencing used should be of equal distance apart and of sufficient strength poultry netting net-ting will not do. i Up to 50 feet in length 4x4 material ;ls heavy enough for the supports and over 50 feet, 6x6 should be used. If Intended to be used as a vine trellis, trel-lis, a low fence can also be fastened vertically upon each side, thus completely com-pletely shading the walk. |
