SEDGWICK STEEL WIRE FENCE. 
• Ib the only general purpose Wire Fence in use, being a Strong Net-Work without Barbs. It will turn 
iogs, pigs, sheep and poultry, as well as the most vicious stock, without injury to either fence or stock. It is just 
the fence for farms, gardens, stock ranges and railroads, and very neat for lawns, parks, school lots and ceme¬ 
teries. Covered with rust-proof paint (or galvanized) it will last a life-time. It is Superiorto Boards or 
Barbed Wire in every respect. We ask for it a fair trial, knowing it will wear itself into favor. The Sedgwick 
GateSy made of wrought iron pipe and steel wire, defy all competition in neatness, strength and durability.
