The latch shown in the accompany-ing illustration has been very satisfac-tory to me. The diagram shows thedetails of its construction. One andthe best features of this is the smallpieee of wood which is hung in theposition shown as the latch, whichmakes it impossible for a horse or anyother animal to lift up the latch andopen the gate. This is loose and canbe swung aside when one desired toopen it. This has been in use on sev-eral of my gates around the farm andit has proven worth-while.
