Congrats on moving to God's country . You're gonna love it.  Dad always used Linseed oil on farm tools but that would probably cost a small fortune for a fence . Check out the big box stores ( Lowe's , HD , etc.) for wood-preserving stains .

Make sure you put a kickboard on the bottom of the fence in a water resistance 2*4 or larger to keep water from wicking up the pickets

Redi Seal in natural cedar is the best looking stuff.

Ready Seal like others have mentioned. I use it on all my clients fences and it last 2-3 years longer than other stains. Spray on with a pump up sprayer and have someone follow with a roller. Easiest way is to rent an airless sprayer from HD and spray on. Cuts time down by 75%. I've never tried twpstain like 410man mentioned so I can't compare to it.

flood oil base CWF is the best I have ever used. just make sure it is oil based not water so it can penetrate.
on a fence it should be good for at least 5-7 yrs with no problem, spray from about 3' back with a good fan tip and let it soak, 2 applications same day works best (dirs. tell you not to but it works good on cedar and redwood since they are like sponges)

Hard to get perspective on the height of that fence. If it is not 6+ feet, it will not keep deer out. Should do good for the dogs though. Nice work.

If you haven't been, you should take a drive to Lake Naconiche and check out the facilities.
