Fig. 211.—Movable Panel.
[Figure 211] shows a lifting-gate, or rather, a movable panel, wide enough to permit the passage of a team and vehicle. This might be useful in places where it was not desired to pass frequently.
Fig. 212.—A Gate Not Clogged With Snow.
[Figure 212] shows another very convenient form of gate for use in a country where the snow is deep. It is fitted in a strong frame, and is balanced by weights, so that it can be easily raised. The engraving sufficiently explains how this very useful gate is made and hung in the frame.
RUSTIC GATES.
Fig. 213.—Ornamental Gate.
A picturesque rustic gate is shown in [figure 213]. The fence and posts are made to correspond. Its manner of construction is clearly shown in the illustration. The vases on the top of the posts may be omitted, unless time can be taken to keep them properly watered.
