Fence Economy 



TT IS a waste of time and money to erect a cheap wire fence. It will begin to rust at once 

 — and nothing looks worse than a rusty wire fence. A cheap fence will soon begin to 

 sag, snap, and break. 



EXCELSIOR "Rust-Proof" Wire Fence will cost more than a common wire fence;, but it 

 will look a great deal better and last infinitely longer. It does not get out of shape, or rust 

 apart at the joints. 



WHENEVER you see an ornamental wire fence that has stood many years without paint or 

 repairs, you can rest assured that it is an Excelsior " Rust-Proof." It is the only wire fence 

 that can withstand the attack of time. 



A FREE sample of "Rust-Proof " coating will be sent to you on request. Also 

 ask for our illustrated catalog " B."
