Advantages of 



NORTHWESTERN IRON HEADGATES 



Advantage Mo. 3: DURABILITY 



The cheapest gate is the one that will last the 

 longest, and the one you don't have to repair. The 

 only way to make a durable headgate is by making it 

 entirely of iron. That it why NORTHWESTERN 

 headgates are eo durable, and why they don't need 

 repairing every year. 



You can't expect a wooden gate to last long, and you 

 don't want to be bothered fixing it every springandf all. 



NORTHWESTERN IRON HEADGATES 

 are made strong enough to last a lifetime, and made 

 properly so aa not to need repairing. They are not 

 the cheapest gates in first cost, but are the cheapest 

 in the long run, because one NORTHWESTERN 

 iron headgate will outlast a dozen wooden gates. 



Replace your old, worn-out wooden gate with an 

 iron gate that will be a permanent improvement. My 

 booklet will show you how easy it is to put in.
