THE CANADIAN HORTICULTURIST 



August, 1910 



OUT OF 259,000 PHONES IN USE IN 

 CANADA, 250,000 ARE MADE BY US 



DON'T you think that fact almost speaks for itself? There hardly seems much left to say. 

 No better evidence could be demanded — or given — of the absolute perfection of every 

 instrument turned out by us. For a long time past we have had our best engineers at work on 

 the problem of designing a more powerful Farmers' Line Telephone. And now we have it. 

 The work was completed months ago, although it is only now that we are offering it to you. 

 The interval has been devoted to "trying out" these new sets under the most exacting condi- 

 tions it would be necessary to meet anytime — anywhere. 



OUR NEWLY DESIGNED No. 1317 TYPE TELEPHONE SET 



represents the attainment of perlection 

 in telephone construction. G<" over it 

 point by point — prove it for jourself by 

 comparison with any other instrument 

 yoa like.

ALL you have to do is to ask for 

 Bulletin No. 2216 and we will mail 

 you FREE, at once, the full story of 

 farm telephones. Askinff for the book 

 places you under no obligation — don't 

 hesitate to tell us you want it. We are 

 anxious that you should be posted on the 

 value and economy of farm telephones. 

 .'\ post card will bring it. 



Take the transmitter — into which you 

 talk — you will find it the standard long 

 distance type. 



Then there is the receiver — the ear- 

 piece ; it is simply perfect — never will 

 you be bothered by local noises to spoil 

 trans.Tiission. The result of long and 

 careful study. It is the best possible 

 construction and combination for the 

 purpose. 



The generator has also been well worked 

 out — so well, in fact, that this generator 

 is stronger than any other telephone 

 generator on the market. Observe how 

 easily it turns. It will ring more tele- 

 phones on a longer line than any other 

 5-bar generator made to-day. Thousands 

 of these generators are now operating 

 on lines more than 30 miles long with as 

 many as 40 telephones on the same line. 



The rin'^ers and gongs are unusually 

 efficient. Our new type 38 ringer is not 

 only very sensitive, but very strong 



and operates on from only one-third to 

 one-fourth of the current ordinarily re- 

 quired. The extra large brass gongs 

 produce a volume of noise fullv half as 

 yreat again as the gongs on other sets. 

 You'll never fail to hear this telephone 

 when it rings. The switch hook makes 

 all contacts on the best grade of plati- 

 num points — that makes for efficiency. 



Taken as a whole. Set No. 1317 is an 

 extremely handsome and serviceable 

 instrument. The woodwork is of 

 quarter-sawed oak of the finest quality 

 and handsome finish. .A^nd in point of 

 service this telephone is unsurpassed — 

 More than $10,000 was put into it in 

 engineering expense alone before the 

 first instrument was made. Would you 

 like tf. know more about it? 



The space here won't permit us to tell 

 you, but if you will write, we'll gladly 

 give you any information you may desire.
