PAGE fence U only one of the hundred or more styles thnt are now on the market.
PACE fence Is the one generally In uee In Eastern Btatee, In the Willamette Valley, Southern
Oregon and Klickitat Valley where fences have been tried out durlug the laet twenty years.
To the man who does not know, one fence is aa good as another thats why In a new country
yon find all kinds of fence.
Ask the man who knows and he will always recommend the PAOE.
There Is a reason. PAGE Is an Independent maker. PAGE makes his own wire, galvanizes his
own wire, weaves his own fence. AVE BUY DIRECT FROM TAGE-no jobber no middle men
Jl'ST PAGE AND I'S.
Now take that Xo.102 10 Inch hog fence. Small wires but it stands more than 11,000 pounds
strain. No. HU7 will stand up against more than 25,000 pounds, while the heavier fences will likewise
stand more than any other fence of their weight.
PAGE Is the only fence we know of that Is made of Basic O. H. process thats whv It stands
one third more than other fences. "
Other fences must have six Inch stays for hogs beenuee it will not stand the strain, and must
have posts eight to 16 feet apart.
PAGE says: "do not put posts closer than 24 foet." Infield fencing he' recommends post not
closer than 50 feet with stays between.
.Don't think you are getting a bargain if you get a fence at a "cheap" figure. Page fence stands.
Will not sag, can and Bhould be stretched tighter than other fence.
We make delivery at the railroad. Write to us or phone and we will tell you more about PAGE.
