A REVOLUTION IN WIRE FENCING EFFECTED BY REID'S PATENT TRIPLEX WIRE STRAINER. (Patented m 1885 thronghout Groat Britain, the United States, and the Colonies.) No Straining Posts required except at the angles of fences. The boring of Straining Posts unnecessary. The advantages claimed for these, the latest and most improved means of straining wire fences, are : ~ THEY COST NOTHING, becauae they pay their coßt m .the straining posts they save. THEY ARE A DIRECT GAIN m economy of time and labor, because no boiing of straining posts is required, and the whole process of straining ocoupiei only about quarter the usual lime. THEY EFFECT A FURTHER SAVING of time and labor as loDg as the fence exists, because they are left perma* nently attached to the wires, which ««n therefoie be tightened or slackened when* ever deaired.
