HARTMAN" STEEL PICKET FENCE. 



STRONG : Because made entirely of steel. 



DU HA-KTjE : When once erected it is as solid as a rock. It cannot be 

 blown down, it cannot be pulled down, it cannot burn up 



ORNAMENTAL: As shown in the engravings, with Steel Posts, Top 

 Rail and Gates, its gracefulness is in striking contrast to the clumsy 

 wooden Picket Fence. It has no unsightly base boards to rot and shade 

 the plants. It ornaments the grounds without concealing them. 



CONVENIENT : Easy to handle, quickly put up, all the parts fit per= 

 fectly, no post holes to dig, in fact, not only the strongest permanent 

 Fence, but the most convenient to handle and erect. 



CHEA.P: The cost of this Fence is no more than for an ordinary, 

 cumbersome wood picket fence. Add to this that the expense of erecting 

 it is much less than for any other fence made, and its cheapness is estab- 

 lished. Who would not have a beautiful, lasting Steel Fence in prefer- 

 ence to a wooden one at anything like the same price. 



THE PROOF: Where once erected there is an immediate demand 

 for it. IT SELLS ITSELF.

"THE "HARTMAN" STEEL TREE AND FLOWER GUARD. 

 Is Ornamental, Strong, Durable and Cheap. 



Made of heavy galvanized steel wire. . , r . 



The Spiral Wire Coils fot attaching this Guard to the tree are elastic and freely ex 

 pand with the growth of the trunk, and prevent any friction or chafing ot the tree 

 against the guard during storms or high winds. .... * A 



All wooden boxes, and similar rigid styles, are liable to seriously injure or retara 

 the growth of the tree, aside from harboring insects that are known to be the worst 

 enemies of the maple and other shade trees. Besides, the wooden boxes are clumsy, 

 unsightly, and require frequent repairs and painting. 



The Guards are lignt and graceful in appearance, making an ornament to the 

 grounds ; will not conceal the foliage nor shade the plant or tree from Hrf ^1 " 

 the sun ; will not harbor insects and will allow cultivation of the 

 ground ; they take but a moment to erect, and are easily moved from 

 place to place. 



Cheaper than a wooden guard, three times 

 as durable, and very much handsomer. 



The Flower Guard is the most perfect and 

 elegant device ever offered for the protection 

 and support of flowers, plants, shrubs, rose 

 bushes, small fruits, etc., on the lawn or in the 

 garden.
