On November 24, 1874, Joseph F. Glidden of DeKalb, Illinois, was granted a patent for fencing material consisting of barbs wrapped around a single strand of wire and held in place by twisting that strand around another. His original double-strand design, the Winner, lived up to its name; it is the most commercially successful of the hundreds of eventual barbed wire designs. Glidden was also the winner in a welter of litigation that reached all the way to the Supreme Court after some dozen other inventors claimed legal priority. Barbed wire was not immediately successful in Texas and elsewhere, especially with smaller cattle ranchers who depended on an 'open range' to sustain their operations. Their opposition led to the barbed wire conflicts of the 1880's, but eventually the ranges were fenced off. Although open range became a thing of the past, barbed wire helped cattlemen to breed herds in protected environments, thus negating the reliance on long-horned cattle that were more suitable to the open range.

-'''[[Jackie_Layton | JACKIE LAYTON]]'''. AKA - "[[Jack Latin]]/[[Jackie Latin]]/[[Jacky Latin]]/[[Jackie Latten]]," "[[Jockey Latin]]," "[[Jaque Latin]]," "[[Jackey Layton]]," "[[Jack Leighton]]," "[[Jennie Rock the Cradle]]," "[[Jock o' Latin]], "[[Jockey Layton]]." AKA and see "Jockey Latin." Scottish, English, Irish; Reel and Country Dance Tune. England, Northumberland. G Major (most versions): D Major (O'Neill). Standard tuning (fiddle). AB (Kerr, Surenne): ABC (Callaghan, O'Neill): AAB (Gow, Kennedy, Stokoe & Bruce): AABBCC (Barnes): AABBCCDDEEFFGGHHII (Peacock). Another tune in which the provenance is debatable and which is popular throughout the British Isles as a bagpipe and fiddle tune. The earliest appearance in print of the melody under the "Latin" title (or variations of the same) appears to be in the Scottish '''Drummond Castle Manuscript''' (in the possesssion of the Earl of Ancaster at Drummond Castle), inscribed "A Collection of Country Dances written for the use of his Grace the Duke of Perth by Dav. Young, 1734." It is also said to have been published in the same year in Ireland in John Neal's '''3rd Collection of Country Dances''' (1734), according to Matt Seattle (whose information was supplied by Seán Donnelly). Closely following this is the melody appeared in Daniel Wright's '''Flute Tutor''' (1735) and the ballad opera '''The Female Rake''' (1736), indicating its popularity at that time. "Jacky Latin" appears in the 3rd book of  '''The Compleat Country Dancing Master''' (1735) and volume 2 of Walsh's '''Caledonian Country Dances''' (c. 1737). Later printings can be found in Waylet's '''Collection of Country Dances''' (1749), book 12 of Oswald's '''Caledonian Pocket Companion''' (c. 1759-60), the '''McLean Collection''' (printed by James Johnson in Edinburgh, 1772), the '''Gillespie MS. of Perth''' (1768), and Bremner's '''McGibbon Collection''' (1768), though tune in the '''McLean Collection''' has been found contain a transposed flute version of the piece that Robert Bremner published four years earlier. The title appears in Henry Robson's list of popular Northumbrian song and dance tunes ("The Northern Minstrel's Budget"), which he published c. 1800, indicating that its popularity had at least spread to the Borders region. Johnson included "Jacky" in his '''Scots Musical Museum''' (No. 430), as the tune for Robert Burns' "[[Lass of Ecclefechan]]."
