How to Fig'tire on All Combination Fencing
To tell what any amount of fence will cost, measure your ground, including all gates, then
multiply the number of feet by the price per foot, given under the fence you have selected, then
add to the amount $2.50 for each walk gate and $5.00 for each drive gate.
For example, take 100 feet of No. 1, 31 inches:
100 feet No. 1, 31 inches high complete, 38 cents per foot $38.00
One walk gate ' 2.50
Total $40.50
If two walk gates are wanted the cost will be $43.00.
If one walk gate and one drive gale is wanted, $45.50.
If two walk gates and one drive gate is wanted, $48.00.
Take style 84 for example, 31 inches high; 100 feet of complete fence, 30 cents per foot, no
gate, $30.00. l
If there is one walk gate in the 100 feet, cost would be $32.50
If there is two walk gates in the 100 feet, cost would be $35.00
* If there is one walk gate and one drive gate, cost would be $37.50
Steel fencing is figured the same way, only you add the price given in catalog for gate and
corner posts.
If fabrics for wood posts are wanted, then figure the actual number of feet wanted, count-
ing out the space for gates, and if gates are wanted figure them at prices given on Page 28.
Why "We Figure Gates Extra
Some do not understand why we figure our gates extra, and also measure them in with the
fence.
The reason we do this is to enable us to quote a net price in our catalog and charge every-
body the same price for fencing. All our fencing is listed low, and anybody knows that 100
feet of fence with only one gate does not cost as much to make as 100 feet with two or more
gates, therefore, by charging extra for gates, the party who only wants one gate only has to
pay for what he gets. The reason we measure them in as fence also is, that the $2.50 and $5.00
extra we charge does not cover the actual cost of the gate, and whenever there is a gate we have
to use two gate posts, which are expensive, and by measuring the gate in as fence it helps to
pay this cost.
Take an 8-foot double gate for instance: to measure this in as fence, Style No. 1, 31 inches
high, 38 cents per foot, it will make a cost of $3.04. For this gate we have to use two gate posts,
that are worth $3.25 each, or $6.50 for the two posts. So you see the extra costs for gate and
posts only make $9.54 when if you buy the gate alone and posts without fence, they would
cost: Gate. $7.35; posts, $6.50; or a total of $13.85.
Our twenty-two years' experience has taught us several things, and the above is the most
important. In making our prices we have done it by figuring from thousands of different jobs
of fence and know we have the prices and extras equalized all right. So, the man who wants
more gates than another will have to pay the cost to produce them, and if you will give the
matter some thought, you will see that we have the fairest way to treat everybody alike that
we could adopt.
Lawn Fencing
We manufacture over fifty designs of lawn fencing, several of which are shown in this
catalog; our wrought iron fence, our combination fence, with our truss posts and wire fabric.
Our angle steel posts and fabric are all first-class in every respect. They are all made neat and
strong, and are guaranteed to give satisfaction.
Gates
Our gates are made of l^xl^-inch channel steel, having a piece of our fabric at the bot-
tom and ornamental truss and scroll work at the top, and they are braced in such a manner
that they cannot possibly sag down and get out of order. They have a spring latch and will
open either way. We make them any size. See Page 28 for prices and cuts showing single and
double drive gates.
Our All-Steel Fence Cheaper Than Wood
In making this assertion we do not wish to convey the idea that you can put up your fence
for a less price than a common wood picket fence can be built, but mean that you can build
our all-steel fence for less money than you can put up a first-class wood picket fence and finish
it up in good shape. If you do not believe this is true, get some good carpenter whom you can
trust to do good work and have him figure the cost of a good wood fence, say 2-inch square
pickets, two good rails, 12-inch base board, a weather strip, posts six feet apart, all painted
with two good coats of good paint, and after getting his price send us a diagram of your fence
and let us make you a price and see if our fence is not the cheapest, to say nothing about our
fence lasting longer than three wood fences and being much nicer.
If you want a real low-price fence, use wood posts and our fabric. This will make you a
cheaper fence than to use the most common pickets, and will be more ornamental, and the
fabric will last a lifetime, and when a post gives out you can put in another. We do not fur-
nish wood posts; you can bivy them as cheap as we can and save freight.
Putting Up Our Fence
We send full directions for putting up our fence; any ordinary workman can put it up.
We build the fence according to diagram sent us with order. All the fabric is made the right
length, and the railing cut out to fit, so there is nothing to do but set the fence up after receiv-
ing it.
Distance Posts Should Be Set Apart
This depends somewhat on the kind of ground they are set in and the location. But in no
case where the fence is in a public place should the posts be over 7 feet apart, and in many
places they should be 6 or 6% feet. In such places as cemetery lots or other public places where
stock cannot get at it, posts can be set 8 and sometimes 10 feet and still have a good fence; but
there is no question but what the closer the posts the better the fence, for the posts are the
foundation, and the stronger the foundation the stronger the fence. We never set posts over 7
feet apart.
Putting' Fence on Uneven Ground
The way our line rail passes through our posts, enables us to erect our fence on any kind
of ground, and it is a great advantage where it is necessary to use a fence on a side hill.
The "Way Our Fabric is Put on Truss Steel Posts
One end of our fabric is fastened to the end or gate post, tieing the line wire in a hole in
the post, and the other end of the fabric is fastened with a ratchet to tighten up the
fence. The fabric passes through the center of line post and is clamped firmly. This gives
our fence a panel finish and finished appearance that no other fence has, and brings the & line
rail directly over the fabric. There is no wrong side to our fence when used with our truss
posts; bo_th_ sides are alike. See Page 8, how the line rail and fabric passes through the posts.
The fabric is put up the same way on the angle posts, only it does not pass through the line
post, but is fastened on the side of it with a wire staple.
Line Rail
Our line rail is a continuous rail from one end of the section in the fence to the other,
passing through the tops of the line posts, and is securely clamped in place by a bolt. The end
of the rail is fastened to the end and gate posts by a round clamp, which is very neat. Our
regular size is iy s inches, which is large enough for any fence. We use nothing' but the best
grade of new steel tubing for this rail.
Our line rails for angle posts are made of 1% galvanized angle steel, and are fastened on
the top of the line posts, and are continuous rails the full length of the section of the fence.
General Information
On account of painting, it always takes four to six days to get any job of complete fence
out. Be sure and always state height and give number of gates when ordering or asking for
estimate on fence. All our fabric is made of the very best galvanized wire we can buy. Any
of our different kinds of fabric can be used on our truss posts, if desired.
We never set 2->osts over seven feet apart.
We sell any of our different kinds of fabric to put on wood posts.
We would not advise the use of rail or baseboard in using our fabric on wood posts, un-
less you want to use a rail as a brace for the posts.
There^is ample provision in all our fabric for expansion and contraction.
Any of our fabric can be erected on any kind of ground. It makes no difference whether
the ground is level or not.
We sell to the consumer only, and only have one price and do not pay any commission to
anyone.
If you want price on window guards or any kind of office railing or ornamental iron work
not shown in our catalog, send us measurements, giving size of mesh and wire wanted and we
will quote you net cash price.
The price of window guards depends on size of wire and mesh ; price ranges from 8 to 25
cents per square foot.
We always send full instructions with every job of fence for erecting and any ordinary
workman can put it up.
All lawn fence is made to order and we carry no stock, every job is made to diagram fur-
nished us by our customers.
Do not hesitate to write us about anything you do not understand ; we will be glad to give
you any information in regard to our goods.
All our prices in Catalog are F. 0. B. cars Terrs Haute. But if you want price on any-
thing delivered, we will make it for you. We always get the best freight possible for our
customers, and keep a tracer after their goods until they receive them.
Always order as far in advance of when you need your goods as possible, especially in
the months of March, April, May and June.
We always acknowledge receipt of orders the day received, stating amount of fence and
amount of money enclosed ; if it should happen to not be right, please notify us at once. ,
Mistakes may happen, you know, and we are always willing to correct them any time. Ee-
member we guarantee perfect satisfaction, you to be the judge.
The posts, rails and gate frames are all painted black in our fencing; the ornaments are
white enameled, the fabric being well galvanized does not need painting.

Description of Posts
See Cuts on Next Two Pages
Truss End, Gate and Corner Posts
The outside rim of these posts are made of l^x%-inch steel, bent around a solid inside
core of cast iron, and all riveted together with heavy rivets. The inside cores of the posts are
3 inches wide and 5-16 inches thick, re-inforced by heavy ribs, forming a truss work between
the round cross supports which the rivets pass through. This makes it the strongest fence
post used for ornamental fence.
See cut of post on next page.
The top part of the post is fastened to the heavy cast anchor with two % machine bolts.
The anchor is very heavy, made in stirrup shape, so the frost cannot raise it out of the ground,
or get it out of line. These posts weigh from 24 to 46 pounds, according to the height of
fenced and set in the ground 28 inches. There is no question but what this is the strongest and
will last longer than any post used in ornamental fencing. At the top of the ground where a
post always gives way first, and where the most strain comes on a post, our truss post has
about 2y 2 x4 inches solid metal ; no other post has one-eighth of this amount.
Truss Line Posts
The top of our line posts is made of iy 2 x5-16 steel, and bolted to heavy stirrup-shaped
cast iron anchors, with % machine bolts, which set in the ground two feet; the posts weigh
from 22 to 30 pounds, according to the height of the fence. The fabric and line rail passes
through the center of these posts and is clamped there solid with 5-16 machine bolts. This not
only makes this the strongest line post made, but holds the fabric so it cannot possibly get off,
and brings the fabric under center of line rail— thus giving the fence a panel finish' and fin-
ished appearance on both sides.
i
Galvanized Angle Steel End, Gate and Corner Posts
Made of 2-inch galvanized angle steel with square cast anchors on the bottom and heavy
cross breast plates near the top of the ground, which makes the post very rigid and keeps it in
line. The anchor on the bottom keeps the post from being raised by the frost.
We do not claim this post will last as long or look as ornamental as our truss posts, but
we do claim it will last longer than any post made of gas pipe, because it has more metal in it
and is heavy galvanized, and no post ever made to drive will stay in its place as well as a set
post with proper anchors.
Galvanized Angle Line Posts
Made of iy 2 galvanized steel with same cast anchors on bottom as end post, but only one
breast-plate near top of ground running same as fence. This gives the post a large surface to
support the fence sideways, the top rail supporting it lengthwise of the fence.
Cast-iron Posts for All-Steel Fence
Made of new cast iron, 4 inches square and cored out to about i/ 2 -inch thick; have heavy
cast iron anchor. See cuts of posts in rlos. 115, 116, 135, 136, 137, 13S and 139 fence. Also

Style No. 1 — Is one of the most ornamental and
strongest fabrics made. The pickets are made by twisting
two No. 11 wires together, which makes the pickets about
%-inch in diameter. The line or tension wire is two No.
12 wires twisted together between the pickets with right
and left twist, which provides for contraction and expan-
sion. All the wires in this and our other fabric is the best
galvanized, made to our special order; in fact, it is the
best steel wire we can buy. Notice the construction of this
fence; see the double lock top and the beautiful appear-
ance of the fence. We guarantee the fence to look just as
nice and uniform on the posts as it does on this paper.
Any of oar fabric can be used on toood posts.

Style No. 2 — Complete fence is the same in ever}'- par-
ticular as Style No. 1, except in the fabric in which the
straight upright picket is left out, making the mesh larger
and the fence some cheaper. It is just as strong in every
respect as No. 1 and will last just as long.
Note: In Styles Nos. 1, 2 and 3, the 86 and 42-
inch fabric has five line or tension wires ; 48-inch has six
line wires; 24 and 30-inch, four line wires: therefore 36
and 42-inch has two rows of diamonds below the square
mesh ; the 48-inch, three rows of diamonds, and 24 and 30-
inch only one row of diamond meshes below the square*
mesh. 18-inch fabric has only three line wires and all the •
meshes are diamond shape — no square mesh in it.

same.
Important Notice : In Styles Nos. 83, 84, 85, 86, 87
and 88, we use galvanized posts and line rails, which does
not need painting, only for looks, and some like it better
white than black, and we always ship it without paint un-
less otherwise ordered. If you wish the posts and line rail
painted black, so state in j^our order and we will paint
them. The paint will not hurt the galvanizing. The
anchor and breast plates on the posts are cast and wrought
iron, well painted. See cut below for price of fabric
alone.
All the posts and line rail in No. 87 are heavy gal-
vanized.

We do not furnisb wood posts.
Style No. 2— Fabric in many respects is just as good
and will answer the same purpose as No. 1 fabric. The
only difference is the straight upright picket is left out,
making the mesh some larger. By using any of our fabric
on wood posts it makes a beautiful fence and cheaper than
wood, and will last a life-time.
Note: We make any of our fabric in any size rolls
up to 300 feet. But in ordering, it is best to give us the
correct length of each section of fence and we will make
each section the proper length, so you will not have to cut
it when putting up. However, you can cut it without
waste and can have it all shipped in one piece if desired.

Style No. 86 — Has the same posts, gates, fabric and
line rail as No. 85, but no braided wire is used above the
line rail. Instead of using the braided wire, the fabric
extends 3y 2 inches above the rail and is fastened to the
rail every 3 feet, and also to the posts with wire staples.
Some like this fence better than No. So because there is
no wire above the rail. As far as strength is concerned,
one is as strong as the other. Both are the same price;
the only difference is the finish at the top. We guarantee
either of them to give perfect satisfaction.

fabric alone, and does not include gate
or posts.
For price of gates see Page 28.
In ordering always state the size of
wire wanted in pickets.
Any of our fabric can be used on
wood posts if desired.
Styee No. 14 — -Is the nicest, strongest and most dur-
able wire picket fence ever made of straight wire pickets.
The pickets in this fence are made of either No. 9 or No.
8 wire as desired ; double galvanized. The line or tension
wire is two No. 12 wires twisted together between the
pickets with right and left twist to provide for contrac-
tion and expansion. Mesh is very small; will turn a
chicken the size of a quail.
The new feature in this fence is the upright picket
made of the same size wire as the other pickets. It is
wrapped twice around the top of the other picket and
then twisted down to the first line wire. The upright
picket is about %-inch in diameter at top, and this in
connection with the lock top of the other pickets makes
it the strongest top fence made, none excepted, and makes
it impossible to get top out of shape.
Fabric is put up in any size rolls up to 300 feet.

This cut is made to show just how the posts and cen-
ter supports are set in the ground and how they are con-
structed. See the anchors on the bottom to keep the frost
from lifting them up. See the heavy breast-plates near
the top of the ground, to give them plenty of surface and
to hold them in line and keep them rigid.
All of these fences are given two coats of good paint
before leaving the factory.

Style 131 — is made of the same size material as Xo.
132, the difference being in the pickets, one-half of them
extending above the center rail This fence is suitable for
any purpose where fence is needed.
This star-shaped cut shows the shape
and size of pickets in Style 132, 133 and
131. This is the strongest shape that this
amount of steel could "be made into. We
have experimented for years to get a low-
priced iron fence without sacrificing
strength and durability, and we know we
have succeeded and can cheerfully recom-
mend these three styles to meet every re-
quirement.

This cut shows
the size and
shape of the line
rail used in num-
bers 132, 133 and
134. The picket
goes through the long
side of angle and the
short side shows on the
front of fence, giving
the fence a very heavy
appearance, and is very
neat.
In presenting these styles of fence we do it with a feeling of pride that we are enabled to
furnish the public with such a nice line of fencing at such low prices without sacrificing
strength or durability. We have been to a heavy expense in getting these shapes in just the
right proportion to give the required strength with the least possible weight, and we feel that
we will be fully repaid for all our trouble and expense, for we know it will be what the people
have been looking for.
We show these sectional views so you can see the exact size of the material used in the
fence.
The Pickets — Made of % star-shaped steel, fully as strong as % or % round rod. (See
cut on Page 24.)
rio-id
The Line Eail— Made of l%x% angle, has the strength of a flat bar l%x%, and is more
The Like Posts— Made of 2i/ 2 xl% T-shaped steel, has the strength of 1% round bar of
steel
End and Gate Posts— Made of 2-inch angle steel, has the strength of 1% bar of round
steel.
The pickets are put in so they cannot possibly get loose or be taken out of the line rail.
The rail is bolted direct to the posts, doing away with connections that are liable to break or
get loose.
The fence can be put on any kind of ground. We also make it to set on stone wall, or con-
crete wall. In fact it is a first-class fence for any use and will last a life-time.

We sell these gates for wood posts and when order-

Fencing for Cemeteries and Churches
Style No. 23 — Price same as No. 2 Fence
See Page 10
Style 21 — Price same as No. 1 Fence.
See Page S.
Owing to the use of our four corner posts in cemetery lots, makes the fence cost more per
foot than a fence in a straight line, and it is impossible to quote net prices for cemetery lots
without knowing the size of lot. But by figuring from the following directions you can tell
the cost of airy size lot fence with any of our different combinations fences or Styles Nos. 132,
133 and 134.
Take the number of feet that it takes to go around your lot and multiply it by the price
given under the fence you want, then add $1.00 for each corner and gate post and $2.50 for the
gate; this will give you the net cost. For example: Take a lot 10x20 feet; it would take
60 feet of fence to enclose it; 60 feet of Style No. 1, 31 inches high, 38 cents per foot, $22.80;
four corner posts and two gate posts at $1.00 extra each, $6.00 ; and if gate is wanted, $2.50
extra, making a total of $31.30 for a lot 10x20 feet, and same proportionate price for any size
lot. In Styles Nos. 115, 116, 120, 121, 122 and 126, figure same as in fence for other pur-
pose, as the end, gate and corner posts are listed extra in these styles.
Fencing for Cemeteries and Churches
Some manufacturers advertise special prices to churches and cemeteries, but if you will
investigate closely you will find they will sell to any individual as cheap as to a church or
cemetery association. They usually have their fences listed high to allow agent's commission
and then figure off some to make believe they are making a special price.
All our prices given in Catalog are net cash price and no discount allowed ; and if you
will consider quality we think you will find them as low as any special price you can get
anywhere.

Testimonials
Up-to-Date Mfg. Co., Rochester, X. Y., May 1, 1911.
Terre Haute, Ind.
Gexts : — I am surprised at you how forgetful you are of your patrons I would like to
have you take notice that I bought a fence of you in September. 1908, and I must say that
the fence speaks for itself. It is just as you have represented it to be. It is a Xo. 1, and can
not be beaten. In your letter you stated that maybe some one talked a cheaper fence to me —
no cheap fence for my part. The one I got from you advertises itself and everybody admires
it.
I have friends and they intend to put up new fences, and I have advised them to get one
Up-to-Dafe fence. That is the reason that I did send to you for a circular, as I did not hear
from you I could not advise my friends that you were in existence. My fence is the only one
of its kind in the city that I know of. I will say once more that the fence is all that you
claim it to be, and that I am perfectly satisfied and that there is no comparison with it in this
cit3 r of a population of 200,000. TVe have dealers here who sell fence, and it is surprising how
they will talk. I did have the pleasure of shutting or making one man take back his words
what he said. I asked him if he could duplicate the fence for what I paid for it, and as good
a fence, and he had to shut up.
I will say that you may look for orders in the future. I will not say when, but I will say
this to you that the Up-to-Date fence demonstrates itself, and I will do all I can to help
3 7 'ou. If any one wants any recommendation I will cheerfully answer them for you without
any trouble or cost. I am, Eespectfully,

Dear Sirs : — Will you please send me a circular or catalog of your poultry netting for
fence. I will want something heavier than the common wire fabric. Please answer as soon as
possible. Do you have any netting just 4 feet in height with two-inch mesh. I got some fab-
ric of you j^eople several years ago for my front fence along my house and lawn, and never
have written you since I received it, and have had it erected. It is all O. K.. and everyone
who sees it admires it very much. I was afraid of the wires snapping off when cold weather
came, but there is not a broken wire in it yet, and I consider it well tested having withstood
two or three of our cold winters. Yours respectfully,

Dear Sirs : — The fence we got a short time ago came all right. We put it up ourselves,
and its a dandy. The concrete walk is about 18 inches high from the ground, and a low
fence set on the edge, looks very nice, and we got it straight as a line and made a good job of
it. Persons going by say it is very nice. Yours truly.

Dear Sirs: — I must tell you our fence arrived safely, and is up all right, and we are

painted the posts and top railing black. Xo shortage, enough wire to make a walk gate on

Dear Sirs : — After so long a time we have the fence up — they finished putting it up to-
day, and all think that the fence is all right. We all thank you for your nice donation, and
hope that it will be the means of getting you other orders from this part of the country. I
surely appreciate your kindness in helping me to get the fence. I surely think it will be a fine
advertisement for you, as I dont think that there is any of your work in this country, and
if my husband and I ever need any ornamental fencing we will not forget you.
There are two cemeteries not far from here that needs fencing very bad. I do hope
after they see this fence that they will send you you their order. So I will close with best
wishes for your health and happiness, and I wish jou good success in your business.
Kespectfully yours,

like you to send me prices on barb wire or catalog of field fencing, as I need some barb wire.
