Wood & Company of Pittsburgh. The company further states "It is now conceded that in the great West the wire fence for the purpose of extensive cattle ranches for prairie farms and for railroads is superior to all others; and a want has been long felt for a post whose strength cheapness and durability would make this iron fence system complete -- one which the forest and prairie fires would not burn -- one which would do away with the expense and tedium of hole-digging -- one that could be cheaply and quickly put up and which would last a life-time."
