ADVANTAGES: TT straics a wire anywhere, either post or midwav; '.makes the best knot, and one which seldom breaks old wire ; not slip about m working ; atrnfuß with unrivalled power, ease, and freedom from annoyance ; does not allow the wire \o slacken moro than ONESIXTEBNTH of an inch whilo being secured ; combines lightness and strength m the highest degi'ae ; can be conveniently applied to all purposes which require wires to be joined 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 the Colonies.) No Straining Posts required except at the angles of fences. The boring of Straining Poets 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 economy of time and labor, because no boring of straining posts is required, and the whole process of straining occupies only about quarter the usual »ime. THEY EFFECT A FURTHER SAVING of time and labor as long as the fence cxistß, because they sre left permanently attached to the wires, which oan therefoie be tightened or slackened when* ever desired.
