THE BEST IS THE CHEAPEST * When you buy a knife for in.stance, you consider the quality of the steel in the blade. The biggest and heaviest knife isnot necessarily the best. Now there is just as much diffe'rence in the quality and strength of steel in fence wire as there is in a knife blade or razor. The Page Co. use a high carbon steel wire, which though it costs you but tittle more, is fifly per cent. (50%) stronger than wire in other fences. The lightest PAGE fence is as strong as the heaviest of other makes. Notice the lock in P.'XGE "EMPIRE" FENCE. You may have noticed .il.so th.it Others are imitating ' " it. That is a good recomrocnd for it. Where we lead others follow. All PAGE wire is "COILED." not crimped. THE LOCK "EMPIRE" Besides the extra strength and superior . woriunanship, P.AGE FENCES are dip- ped in 8k. special white paint, which on top of the best of galvanizing, will lengthen the life of wire for years. And, also, this white coating makes wire much more sightly. I Owing to the great strength and elasticity of â-  P.-\GE fencing, one- third less posts are re- quired, thus reducing tbo cost of the fencing. • As you get in PAGE FENCES one-half more fence strength. greater protection against rust, better workmanship, better appearance, use less posts, can you affbrd to us4 other fences, even though you could- buy them for one-half the price of the. PAGE? But, really ours cost you^ little. It any more. « 408, " IN PASS FENCES. Get prices before placing your order for Fence Gates or Lawn Fence. SOLD .\Xn ERECTED PV^ Cl)p$« Elliott Itlarkdak.
