Last week we filled an order
from a manager on Hawaii for
eight miles Of the locked fence
and another from a manager
on Kauai for three miles. In
the first instance the manager
guaranteed the owners an in
crease Of thirty.three and one
third percent in fat cattle if
they would adopt the locked
fence for the pasture fields.
not that a particular kind Of
fence would make the grass
grow but that the locked fence
was strong enough to keep
depredatory cattle out while
the feed was growing. The
three mile order from Kauai
was simply a trial trip, and if
it is satisfactory we expect to
see most Of the island girdled
with locked wire fence. 1t is
only a question Of time when
it will be universally used be-
cause it has SO many points Of
superiority which commend it
to people who use wire fences.
Durability, Strength and Eco.
nomy in price are the three
points which make it the best
fence in the world. You will
understand that while we call
it a fence, we do not sell it
made up. We simply sell you
the wire, stays and washers
necessary to make it. II you
do not wish to build a new
fence but to repair an old one
we will sell the stays and
washers and you may make
your fence as good as new.
These stays cost you six dol
lars a hundred and the washers
forty.two cents a hundred. In
ordering by mail remember
that you need a washer wher.
ever your wire joins a stay; il
yours is a five wire fence you
will require five washers to
each stay. It's an easy mat.
ter to calculate the saving; any.
one who knows that two and
two make four will understand
that a wire stay which costs
six cents is cheaper than a
wooden post at sixteen cents,
Ordinarily the original cost ol
an article is the greatest ex-
pense. Consider the saving
there is in a locked fence, and
the first cost is reduced to a
minimum.
Carbolinium Avenarius is an
article much used by builders
for coating wood placed in con
tact with the ground and where
moisture quickly affects it; the
object Of the preparation is to
preserve the wood from decay
consequent upon the ravages
Of ants and underground bugs
/ We understand that one Homo
lulu merchant is selling it al
Sl.25 per gallon. We sell you
the same article exactly, for s,
cents a gallon or $50 per bar
rel. Not much difference, per
haps, but enough for everyone
to consider.
This difference in price i.
about on a par with other arti
cles we sell. We secure the
best quality, always. and ar
range the price to meet tho
purses OF the people. The re
suit is that our business rapid,
outgrew our quarters; first one
warehouse was added and ther
another until now we hav,
three warehouses full Of good,
besides those in our Fort stree
store.
The "Wertheim" has jumpe1
from a plebeian to a king
among sewing machines. Th'
fact Of people getting an arti
Gle that practically combine
three in one is what makes
valuable to every lady in th'
land. We know of no othe
machine that will give lock
chain or embroidery stitch b,
the simple turning OF a thumI
screw, and yet that is what tn
Wertheim does. In addition t
its being the best sewing ma
chine it has the finest table w
have ever seen.
The porcelain lined bath tub
seem to have caught the peo
pies favor and we've had t
send forward orders for dupli
Gates. The one in the store i
roomy enough to satisfy any
