Letters to the Editor

Dear Carol,

Here are a couple of old ads I found in a book called "The Railways of Canada" (1871). With Montreal Telegraph having 7800 miles of poles in 1870, there must be a heck of a lot of M.T.CO. insulators buried around the country somewhere. I have just received my first issue of C.J. and really enjoy it.
