FENCES OF BARBED WIRE
ALL WILL BE WANTED "Make no mistake; they'll take every strand of Avire in the country when they need it," ay as the dictum of the Chairman, Captain Rushworth in a discussion on barbed Avire at last Execute meeting of the Auckland Farmers' Union. In the last Avar, he continued, the Germans had, at one point, wire entanglements 30 feet thick, and they lasted just ten minutes. "According to the military leaders, its best service," said the speaker, "is not as an obstacle to the enemy, but in the sense of security and confidence it giA'es to the defenders."
