We Know you are. First?there was the stone fence of medieval history. 'Second?pioneer America converted its timber into rails. Third?somebody found a way to weave wire and slats. hH Fourth?along1 came barb v/ire, with its marvelous sale. HR Fifth?mach'nes were inventea to twist or clamp one wire around MRS another: the woven wire fence. "jH But, mOSt important of all, electricity now welds the flB j wires at the joint, making no longer necessary these wraps f and clamps. Stay and strand, wizard*like, become one. The greatest step forward in fence building is thus accomplished at gH| a single, master stroke. ( . Of course, you are not using anything else. Surely you are familiar- jSIp izing yourself with this remarkable improvement, to be found only in flK; "Pittsburgh Perfect." "S2 FARMERS' SUPPLY CO., I 1$||Kingstree, S. C. * ___ DAILY.
