GALVANIZED AFTER BEING WOVEN.

The rut above illustrates some of the many uses 

 to which tliis wire netting and fencing- may be put 

 about tlie home. You will notice back of the house 

 a poultry -yard. Probably I lie greater part of tlie 

 netting' heretofore sold liiis been used for fencing- 

 poultry, and nothing can be devised that is cheap- 

 er, better, or more durable. 



it is the ciieapest, costiiiji- less than 7.5 cts. per rod 

 for posts, staples, and all. It will last a lifetime, 

 and never needs repairing!'. Iieciuse it can't get out 

 of order. Beitig galvanized after it is woven. It will 

 never rust. It is easily pul up and taken down. It 

 can not be blown down, as the wind goes right 

 through it. On this account you don't need very 

 lieavy jiosts where the fence is used for poultry on- 

 ly. It does not keep out the light and fresh air, so 

 needlul to poultry. It is neat and ornamental, and 

 always Un^ks well if properly put up. It is so invis- 

 ible that fowls can not see 1 he top, and will not tij' 

 over. You can see inside ;is well as if there were no 

 fence at all. 



But the uses of wire netting are becoming more 

 and more diverse. If you wish to let poultry run, 

 and have flower-beds, or choice crops that you wish 

 to keep from them, all you need is some of the light- 

 est netting, not over one to two feet wide, stretched 

 around as shown in cut abn\ e. This can be attached 

 temporarily to light stakes, and (juickly removed 

 when desired. For holdinfr u)) green i)e:is"and beans, 

 tomatoes, and other such crops, nothing could be 

 cheaper or more convenient than the light narrow 

 netting, 12 or IH inches wide. You notice, by table 

 of prices below, that the liuht weight, No. 20, 3-inch 

 mesh, is only *>iic a roll. 1.5'i ft. long, 12 in. wide. This 

 is indestructible, and, if proiterly handled, can be 

 used year after year, over and over again. You 

 could not furnish any thing else half as good for 

 the money; and the time of putting this up and tak- 

 ing care of It again after the crop is gathered is In- 

 signiticant compared with sticks or brush, or any 

 thing else that can be used. 



For stock fences the heavier weights are used, or 

 the cottage fencing, which is extra heavy and well 

 made. There are a great many makes of netting 

 and fencing, and it is needless to say that some are 

 inferior to others. We still liandle the G. & B. 

 brand, the same as».we have jilways .sold since we be- 

 gan selling this c-lass of goods, because we believe 

 it t(j be the best value for the money of any on the 

 market. The goods for this year are better than 

 ever; being made of stiff steel wire it will not kink 

 and get out of shape so easily. Our contract for 

 the coming year enables iis to make very low prices. 

 The 3^inch mesh we are able to offer at about 34 less 

 than la.st year, and other sizes over 10 per cent 

 lower, or as low as we have ever been able to sell it 

 before. 



COTTAGE GATES. 



There are many sizes of these gate.s, made with 

 plain and ornMuiental top, all of which, with many 

 other interesting things, are listed in our 2S-page 

 netting and fencing c-atalogue, mailed on applica- 

 tion. Gates like above, 3 feet wide, are worth $3.V0 

 each, 3 feet hifih : ^•Z.sr, for 34 feet high, and $3.00 for 

 4 feet, including latch and hinges; with plain top, 

 30c each less. We do not keep these in stock, but 

 ship from New York or Chicago. This is also true of 

 most of the netting and fencing listed below. We 

 have in stock at Medina all widths of 2-inch No. 19, 

 and also 3-inch No. 2U, 12 Inches wide, for pea and 

 bean ti'ellis. 



We are prepared to make special low prices to 

 dealers, and those who buy in large quantities. On 

 goods shipped from New York or Chicago we must 

 add 25 cts. for c;irtage on each shipment, large or 

 small. When j-ou pick out from the table what you 

 want, and deduct the discount for quantity, if ,5 

 rolls or more are ordered, then add 25 cents for cart- 

 age. The following table gives our net price per 

 roll of all sizes, in lots of from 1 to 5 rolls. On orders 

 for 5 rolls, deduct 5 per cent; 10 rolls, 10 per cent; 2.5 

 rolls or moie, 15 per cent. Less than full rolls or 

 parts of roll cost double the full roll price. 

 ^Size^ 1 Price 1 roll 150ft. long and fol'wing- widths.
