JOHN ORR & CO. ECONOMY IN TIME: ECONOMY IN LABOR : ECONOMY IN FENCING MATERIAL. Patent Titan^Wire Strainer. ADVANTAGES : IT strains a wire anywhere, either at post or midway ; makea ih© beat knot, and one which seldom breaks old wire ; does not Blip about m working : strains with unrivalled power, ease, and freedom from annoyance ; does not allow SIXTEENTH f ken ?°? than ONE - bJAI&ENTH of an mch while being secured • combines lightneas and strength m the highest degree ; can be conveniently applied to all purposes which require wires to be joined under tension. A REVOLUTION IN WIRE FENCING EWKCTED BY REID'S PATENT TRIPLEX WIRE STRAIKER. (Patented m 1885 throughout Great Britain, the United States, and th« Colonies.) No Straining Posts required except at the angles of fences. The boring o£ Straining Posts unnecessary. The advantages claimed for these, the latest and most improved means of straining wire fences, are : — THEY COST NOTHING, because they pay their coßt m the straining postu they nave. THEY ARE A DIRECT GAIN m economy of time snd labor, because no boring of straining posts is required, and the whole process of straining occupiei only about quarter tbe usual time. THEY EFFECT A FURTHER SAVING of time and labor as long as the fence exist e, because they are left nenna* nently attached to the wires, which can therefoie be tightened or slackened when* ever desired.
