I remember when we bought our first farm about 57 years ago, the fence 
posts were Bois DÁrc posts about 2-3 inches in diameter. You had to get 
one leg of the fence staple in a crack and hold on to the back of the 
post to drive it in..    Usually the staple would just bend over.  After 
the first winter, Dad figured out that Baling wire held better.  If you 
doubles the wire around the back of the post you could  tighten the 
fence up as you tied it up.  Over the next 10 years we replaced all of 
the fences with steel posts.   There is a pile of those old wooden posts 
still on that place.  They are just as hard now as they were back then!!
