You will notice in this lot some with heavier wire 

 than No. 19, and some with smaller mesh than two- 

 inch. Both of these are worth more at regular 

 prices than two-inch No. 19; but as it is a job lot we 

 put it all in at the same price.

We know of nothing nicer or better for a trellis for creeping 

 vines than the above netting. The 12 to 24 inch is just the 

 thing to train up green peas, fastening the netting to stakes 

 by means of staples. If the stakes are set in substantially, 

 one each 12 or 15 feet will answer. When the peas are stripped 

 off the stakes, netting and all can be rolled up and laid away 

 until another season. A. I. ROOT, Medina, O.
