  Extract 
  from 
  Preface 
  

  

  The 
  author 
  has 
  endeavored 
  to 
  include 
  char- 
  

   acteristic 
  designs 
  in 
  vogue 
  to-day, 
  and 
  to 
  give 
  

   reliable 
  information 
  as 
  to 
  the 
  choice 
  of 
  wall 
  

   papers 
  as 
  well 
  as 
  to 
  describe 
  the 
  practical 
  

   methods 
  of 
  applying 
  them. 
  In 
  dealing 
  with 
  

   matters 
  concerning 
  decoration 
  there 
  is 
  always 
  

   the 
  danger 
  of 
  leaning 
  too 
  much 
  toward 
  an 
  ideal 
  

   and 
  of 
  overlooking 
  the 
  practical 
  requirements 
  

   of 
  commercial 
  life. 
  The 
  author 
  hopes 
  that 
  he 
  

   has 
  been 
  successful 
  in 
  avoiding 
  this 
  fault, 
  and 
  

   that 
  his 
  book 
  will 
  be 
  regarded 
  as 
  both 
  practical 
  

   and 
  useful.

  A 
  Permanent 
  Improvement 
  

   to 
  Your 
  Grounds 
  

  

  It 
  costs 
  as 
  much 
  to 
  put 
  up 
  a 
  poor 
  fence 
  as 
  a 
  good 
  

   one 
  Why 
  not 
  get 
  the 
  best 
  ? 
  Anchor 
  Ornamental 
  

   Fence 
  combines 
  service 
  and 
  long 
  life 
  with 
  a 
  hand- 
  

   some 
  appearance 
  that 
  is 
  permanent. 
  The 
  man 
  who 
  

   encloses 
  his 
  grounds 
  with 
  Anchor 
  fence 
  never 
  re- 
  

   grets 
  his 
  choice. 
  Many 
  styles 
  from 
  which 
  to 
  select, 
  

   suitable 
  for 
  yards, 
  spacious 
  lawns, 
  parks, 
  etc. 
  

  

  Anchor 
  Farm 
  Fence 
  

  

  made 
  of 
  all 
  hard 
  wire, 
  gives 
  double 
  the 
  strength 
  

   of 
  soft 
  wire 
  fences. 
  It 
  is 
  easy 
  to 
  build 
  over 
  uneven 
  

   ground, 
  and 
  the 
  celebrated 
  Anchor 
  lock 
  prevents 
  

   wire 
  from 
  slipping. 
  It 
  is 
  the 
  one 
  farm 
  fence 
  that 
  

   stands 
  up 
  tight 
  and 
  erect.
