American Dredge Rope 



IN the great work of reclamation of the 

 submerged lands of the Mississippi Val- 

 ley there is no more active mechanical 

 factor than our dredge rope. We make this 

 rope with full knowledge gained from years of 

 experience in the hard usage to which it is 

 subjected, than which perhaps no other ser- 

 vice can show an equal. There is not the 

 same risk of life that goes with the operation 

 of an elevator or a mine hoist, but there is 



greater wear, necessitating a very close study 

 of the requisite quality of material and also 

 experience in manufacture, to produce a flex- 

 ible, reliable and durable dredge rope. 



We offer our rope to dredgemen with assur- 

 ance of the highest uniform quality and 

 efficiency, as proven by the many years that 

 it has now been successfully identified with 

 this service.
