"The Battle is Not 



To Tiie Strong Alone" 



If it "were, we "would win it just as we do now, 

 for we stand ready to guarantee our fence to 

 be tlie strongest of all wire fences made. 

 We do not ask you to take anybody's figures 

 or tables of tensile strength, but wilt make a 

 bona fide test of the real article Ou the 

 other hand, if a fence must be '"vigilant," 

 "active" and "brave," there is no use looking 

 further than the Page. It's tlie only live 

 fence. ''Dead" soft wire fences are exempt.

Another a'l. tells of the process of ^'alvanizin^ and its indis- 

 pensable pie-ervative qualities. We also will give you the ex- 

 perience of two ri'presentative business firms of Illinois, one of 

 ■whom has sold 400 and the other 5U0 Aermotors. In ad. No. 4 

 we qu"te a p ice on the best pumps made (hand, windmill, and 

 irriza ing) lower than v,-n< ever bef rt- dreamed of. and in ad. 

 No. 5 we talk to you of steel galvanized tanks, with covers, at 

 the unheard of [trice of 2^ cents per gallon. This is cheaper 

 than wood. They dn not shrink, le tk. rot. rust, or give taste to 

 water. Read all of the Aermoior ads.

 is seriired without waste, and liy which also 

 smoke is prevented absoluielytfrom going- nito 

 tlic bellows. 



The Legs are of Skeleton Malleable 



Iron, contracted at the feet so as to be out of 

 the w ly of the fingers in handling, and aie se- 

 cured to the bellows by bolts instead <)f screws. 



The Shield is of Light Corrugated Tin, 



and lia^s next to tlie bellows, thus giving ample 

 protection from heat. 



The Cone Top easily tilts back for re= 



plenishing the smokei'. and is secured by a. 

 tnalleable-iion hinge, the working parts of 

 wlijch ;ire milled so as to insure accurate ad- 

 .jnstment to the stove or cup. 



As to Fuel, it will burn any thing, in= 



eluding S(dt Coal, Stovewood. Planer-shavings; 

 and it makes no difference how much the lat- 

 ter may be crammed down in the cup, there 

 will be the same strong blast as before.
