I ECONOMY IN TIME: ECONOMY IN LABOR : ECONOMY IN FENCING MATERIAL. Patent Titanlb Strainer. ADVANTAGES: IT strains a wire anywhere, either at post or midway; ma kes the best knot, and one which seldom breaks old wire ; does not slip about i Q working ; strains with unrivalled power, ease, and freedom from annoyance ; does not allow S.XTEiiNTH of an inch while beiog secured ; combines lightness »nd strength m the highest degree ; can be conveniently applied to all purposes which requiri wireH to be ]ozned under tension. A REVOLUTION IN WIRE FENCING EFFECTED BY REID'S PATENT TRIPLEX WIRE STRAINER. (Patented m 1885 throughout Great Britain, the United States, and tho ColoDies.) 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, because they pay their cost m the straining posts they save THEY ARE A DIRECT GAIN m ecouomy of time and labor, because no boring of straining posts i 8 required, and the whole process of strainiog occupies only about quarter the usual time. tfHEY EFFECT A FURTHER SAVING of time and labor as long as the fence exists, because they are left perms* nently attached to the wires, which can therefore be tightened or slackened when* ever deaired.
