STEEL WIRE FENCE. 
Is the only general purpose wire fence in use. Being a 
strong net-work without harbs, it will turn dogs, pigs, poul- 
try.as well as the most vicious stock.without danger to either 
fence or stock. It is just the fence for farmers, gardeners, 
stock-raisers, and railroads; very desirable for lawns, parks, 
or cemeteries. As it is covered with rust-proof paint it will 
last a lifetime. It is superior to boards in every >;espect, 
and far better than barbed wire. We ask for it a fair trial, 
knowing it will wear itself into favor. The Sedgwick 
gates, made of wrought iron pipe and steel wire, defy all 
competition in neatness, lisrhtness, strength, and durability. 
We also make the BEST and CHEAPEST ALL 
IRON Automatic or Self-openiag Gate. Ask hardware 
dealers, or for price list and particulars address
