Plata Mrts for Prcticl Mta. Yh Are a Practical Man. That being the case, you have good common sense. We appeal to your practical judgment and cood common sense, and, if our points are well taken. l)elieve we ought to get together and do business. We as sume that vou want fence, and being the manner of man above de scribed, it is safe to say that you have passed the barbed wire era ami want the best WOVei wire fence you can procure. You want a fence that will be an ornament to The ! ente the faril) that will successfully turn all stock That Ion Want. wtfcout injury to either animals or fence; one that will not sag or bag between the posts; one that will do irst class service for a long term of years, and not be tiled with broken lateral wires when the frosts of January contract it, or look like a carpet rag festooning the currant bushes in the hot days of July and August; a fence that will conform perfectly to the snrfaee of the ground, without cutting or lapping when you want to take it over a hill or down into a gully; one in which the up right wires are heavy enough to give some support to the mesh, and put on the fence in such a way that a good share of the life of the wire is not gone lwfore they ever get to do service in the field; with the upright wires heavy enough and close enough together so that a pig can neither crowd through the mesh nor kink up the wire and roll under. You want a fence that is complete in the rollreadv to stretch and staple full width as soon as posts are set. The Lamb Fence is the "best looker' ever put on posts, and there is nothing you can get from an equal expenditure which will so improve the appearance of the place, or add so much to its value. It is high enough neither horses nor cattle can reach over it when feed is short and crops look tempting on the other side, awl it is close enough in mesh so that neither pigs nor sheep can spread the wires and crowd through. Beware the man who cheapens fence by wide spacing of upright. A 200 lb. man can go through an four-inch space letween laterals, where the uprights are thirty inches apart, before such a fence has leen in service one year, and a hog or calf has equal intelligence in that matter. The Material. To make a fence stand up and preserve its shape, you must have it elastic; to make it elastic you must have it of hard steel wire almost spring steel; that is what you get in the LAMB. Galvanizing is the Itest protection that can be had for wire; the coating should be uniform, even and smooth. You cannot get better galvanizing than you find in the LAMB fence. The Construction. Your good sense tells you that if you put No. 11 laterals in a fence, and uprights of No. 14 or No. "12, vour uprights will give out long before the laterals. When you get the LAMB vou will find that all the wire in it, uprights, locks aud all, is of a substantial size, and hard steel at that Another very important point is in the Way the upright is put on. You are a practical man, and you know that it is only a question of the number of times that you bend any piece of metal back and forth before you break it. If you want to break a piece of wire you pass the ends and draw it to a kink. Now that is just what you do when you wrap one wire around as small a circumference as another wire, and the larger the wire you use to make the wrap, the more vou break the coating and the fibre and weaken the wire at the joint.' In the LAMB you get a straight, heavy upright in one .piece, not weakened by any wrap er kink, aad that has not lost half its life by being worked before it gets into the fence.. But the practical and sensible men on the farm have need of something that is durable, that is enlcieut, that is a time and money saver, that is simple, strong and easily handled, and tkpw fild k ia the LAMB fence. fr ' A ; .."
