THE COVER ILLUSTRATION. 
The illustration on front cover of this 
issue shows a very attractive and substan- 
tial design of iron fence suitable for cem- 
etery, park or playground which is worthy 
of comment. It is a special ornamental 
design made by The Stewart Iron Works 
Co., Cincinnati, O., on which this well- 
known firm is enjoying an exceptionally 
good trade. While it can be made any 
height and of different sizes of material, 
the specifications are usually as follows : 
Height when set, 6 feet 6 inches ; con- 
structed of %- inch square pickets, with 
large ornamental wrought malleable picket 
heads. Top rail is 2x2-inch heavy box 
channel ; bottom rail, 2x54-inch Stewart’s 
patent 3-rib steel channel ; ring ornaments 
are %x?4-inch, securely riveted to pickets. 
Line posts are %-inch square, with heavy 
malleable base, and have %-inch square 
braces. The ornamental flat newell post 
shown in photograph, which is used at end 
of each 8-foot panel, is a striking feature 
of the fence. This post is built up of 
2x1 -inch side bars, with inch square 
pickets and interior scroll work of ^xj^- 
inch material. Scroll work above top rail 
is l T /2xj4-inch material. This post is sub- 
stantially braced with heavy “Y” braces. 
It can be seen from a close observation 
of the photograph that, taken as a whole, 
the fence is a very desirable pattern. The 
Stewart Iron Works Co. will be glad to 
furnish those interested with drawing and 
full particulars regarding this style of 
fence.
