CHARLES D. YOUNG and COMPANY (late 

 W. and C. YOUNG), 



MANUFACTURERS OF IRON AND WIRE WORK, «fcc, 

 22, PARLIAMENT STREET, WESTMINSTER, LONDON; 

 48, NORTH BRIDGE, EDINBURGH; 

 32, ST. ENOCH SQUARE, GLASGOW; 



1, CASTLE BUILDINGS, DERBY SQUARE, LIVERPOOL; 

 beg respectfully to call the attention of Landed Proprietors and 

 others to their strong Wire-Net Fence, for excluding Hares 

 and Rabbits from Gardens, young Plantations, Nurseries, &c. 



This Net was exhibited at the Show of the Highland and 

 Agricultural Society of Scotland, held lately at Inverness, 

 where ns Efficiency, Great Strength, and Exceeding Cheapness 

 attracted general attention, and had awarded from the Judges 

 the Society's Silver Medals, with high commendations. 



The immense damage done by Hares and Rabbits in Gardens 

 and Young Plantations is often so great, that in the course of 

 a year or two it will amount to more than the entire cost of 

 protecting them with this Net. It is so durable, that when 

 Plantations are sufficiently advanced to be independent of its 

 protection, it can be removed to other exposed situations with 

 the greatest facility, by any labourer. As a Fence against 

 Hares and Rabbits, it is of itself quite sufficient, having only to 

 be unrolled and attached, with small wire sent for that pur- 

 pose, to wooden stakes driven into the ground, about every six 

 or seven feet apart. It is, besides, peculiarly adapted for ren- 

 dering Hedges, Paling, or other existing Fences, completely im- 

 pervious to such vermin ; and by being cut up into small 

 pieces of three or more feet, as required, it forms a most effi- 

 cient guard, at little expense, for individual Plants and Shrubs. 



Prices.— 18 ins. high, 9d. ; 24 ins., 1*. ; 30 ins., 1*. 3d. ; and 

 36 ins., la. 6d. per lineal yard. 



Or a web of 100 yards, 18 ins. wide, will cost ..£3 15 



Do. of 100 yards, 24 in3. wide . . . • 5 



Do. of 100 yards, 30 ins. wide . • % • 6 5 



Do. of 100 yards, 36 ins. wide . . .. 7 10 



If more or less than a web is required, it would be charged 



at the same rate per yard. 



This Netting is also admirrbly adapted for Pheasan tries and 

 Poultry-yards, and is charg d at the s%me rate. As carriage 

 has, in many instances, been an obstacle to parties at a dis- 

 tance requiring this Net, C, D. Y. and Co. kave made irrange- 

 ments by which they will undertake to deliver it at any of the 

 principal ports of Scotland, England, and Ireland, for One 

 Halfpenny per lineal yard. ^ ^ , t ^ 



C. D. Young and Co. cannot ^tve a better idea of the great 

 strength of their Premium"~Wire Netting than by stating that 

 the weight of one yard of tfoetr 24-inch at Is. is eoual to 2} 

 yards of another article in the market, the same wid'th, at 9d. 

 per yard. Samples for inspection sent free of expense. 



C. D. Yodng & Co. manufacture every description of IRON 

 and WIRE WORK required for this and foreign countries.

"VTOW that the season of annual festivity is about to

 improving and beautifying the hair, ROWLANDS' KALYDOR,

 fying the teeth and preserving the gums, must be universally 

 considered indispensable. The august patronage conceded bj 

 all the Sovereigns of Europe to these creative and renovating
