//__ Applicator __// 1. In the Battle of Cowshed the animals used the campaign techniques of Julius Caesar. Depict the stages of the animals’ campaign against the farmers. The stages of the animal's campaign against the farmers are: 1. Snowball sent the birds and the geese to drop their dung over the unsuspecting farmers. This was only meant as a minor distraction, providing more preparation time for the other animals to get ready. 2. The chickens and the rest of the geese ran into the farmers and started to peck and bit at them. Again they were warded off without much trouble. 3. The rest of the animals, the dogs, the cows, the horses, the goats, and the donkey streamed out to finish off their assault on the farmers. This was the final stage of their campaign.

2. Classify the techniques of Snowball and Napoleon into two lists. Explain what brought their disagreement to a head. What was the result?

__ Napoleon's Techniques __


 * Napoleon believed that having spies were essential to a successful assault
 * Napoleon thought that human made tools such as telescopes were of assistance to their attacks
 * Napoleon disregarded the rules of Animal Farm or Animalism
 * Napoleon altered the rules to suit him
 * Napoleon gave the animals hope, then drowned them
 * Napoleon believed lieing to others was of aid so he could get his way

__ Snowball's Techniques __
 * Snowball believed that using what they already had would guarantee a successful assualt
 * Snowball thought that everything that was human made was poison and that no one was allowed to touch them
 * Snowball read along the same lines as Old Major had, and believed in the principles of Animalism
 * Snowball valued Old Major's opinions and treasured his memories
 * Snowball would not give the animals hope until they had real hope
 * Snowball believed the truth was priceless but was powerless to stop Napoleon

What brought Snowball and Napoleon's argument to a head was the fact that they were pure rivals. One would always scorn the other, and vice versa. Snowball saw on the tracks of Old Major, and Napoleon saw differently. He saw Old Major's rebellion as a chance to gain control. Snowball saw it as a chance to overthrow the humans. The result was that Napoleon was infuriated and called in his fierce dogs to chase Snowball away so he could make good of his so called plan.
