Made of wire that is all life and 
strength—wire that stretches true and tight 
and yields just enough under impact to give back 
every jolt and jam it receives. 
Made of materials selected and tested in all the stages from / 
our own mines, through our own blast furnaces and rolling and / 
wire mills, to the finished product. Our employment of specially A 
adapted metals is of great importance in fence wire; a wire that must ^ y 
be hard yet not brittle; stiff and springy yet flexible enough for A WF 
splicing — best and most durable fence matenal on earth. 
To obtain these and in addition apply a quality of galvanizing 
that will effectually protect against weather conditions, is a triumph of the / ^ p 
wi remaker’ s art. 
These are combined in the American and Ellwood fences the 
product of the greatest mines, steel producing plants and wire mills 
in the world. And with these good facilities and the old am ^ 
skilled employes back of them, we maintain the highest 
standard of excellence possible for human skill and 
ingenuity to produce. ; t 
Dealers everywhere, carrying styles 
adapted to every purpose. See them.
