"Simplicitas" Pea Netting 



"Simplicitas" Pea Netting is 

 made of heavy twine, tanned and 

 rot proof. It is made 4J^ ft. high, 

 5 inch mesh. It forms an ideal 

 support for climbing garden peas 

 and Sweet Peas. A single row of 

 netting, when properly stretched 

 between posts, is all that is required, 

 though a heavy wire top and bot- 

 tom is an advantage, thus forming 

 a fence of peas which will with- 

 stand the season's storms and not 

 show any visible support. The 

 advantages over sticks, wire net- 

 ting, or iron trainers are innumer- 

 able. It is remarkable how the 

 tendrils cling to it, and being soft, 

 the flowers and leaves are not 

 bruised or injured during severe 

 weather. It is cheap, lasts for 

 several years, is easily fixed, easily 

 removed at the end of the season; and takes up 

 little space when not in use. It comes in 300 foot 

 lengths which will be cut to suit purchasers into 

 lengths not less than 25 feet. Price, 7c. per run- 

 ning foot.
