Made of wire that is 

 all life and strength — wire 

 that stretches true and tight 

 and yields just enough under impact 

 to give back every jolt and jam it 

 receives. 



Made of materials selected and tested 

 i in all the stages from our own mines, 

 ■ through our own blast furnaces and rolling 

 and wire mills, to the finished product. Our 

 J: employment of specially adapted metals is 

 ——-«#=- ^£ great importance in fence wnre; a wire 

 that must be hard yet not brittle; stiff and springy yet ^ 

 flexible enough for splicing — best and most durable 

 fence material on earth. 



To obtain these and in addition apply a quality of gal- 

 vanizing that will effectually protect against weather ^ 

 conditions, is a triumph of the wiremaker's art.

 And with these good facilities and the oh' 

 and skilled employes back of them, we 

 maintain the highest standard of e\

 and ingenuity to pioduce
