PAGE fence le only one of the hundred or more styles that are now on the market.
PACE fence le the one generally In use In Eastern states, In the Willamette Valley, Southern
Oregon aud Klickitat Valley where fences have been tried out during the last twenty years.
To the man who doee not know, one fence le a good as another thats why tn a new country
yon find all kinds of fence.
Ask. the man who knows and he will always recomuieud the TAOE.
There le a reason. PAGE le an Independent maker. PAGE makes his own wire, galvanizes his
own wire, weaves his own fence. WE BUY DIRECT FROM PAGE no jobber no middle men

stand more than any other fence of their weight.
PAGE ie the only fence we know of that le made of Basic O. H. process thats why it stands
one third more than other fences.
Other fences must have eli Inch stays for hogs because It will not stand the strain, and must
have poets eight to 16 feet apart.
PACE says: "do not put posts closer than 24 feet." In field fencing he recommends post not
closer than 50 teet with stays between.
Don't think you are gettlug a bargain if you get a fence at a "cheap" figure. Page fence stands.
