Decayed Lumber in a Corn Crib {Courtesy U. S. Forest Service) 



A Reason Why Substitutes Are Used 



LUMBER would not now be en- 

 4 gaged in a "war on substitutes" if 

 its proper utilization had been taught 

 a decade ago. 



Lumberhassomany 

 natural advantages 

 that the lost ground 

 can easily be re- 

 gained, but use must 

 be made of every 

 possible aid. 



Lumber's chief aid 

 is Creosote Oil. It 

 prevents decay, 

 makes wood more 

 durable, and consequently more valuable. 



In the case illustrated above it was logical 

 for the farmer to replace the rotted 

 wooden crib with a steel crib, and to 

 lose faith in lumber as a building 

 material for similar structures. 



If the dealer who sold that particular 

 lot of lumber had induced the purchaser 

 to preserve it, these consequences would 

 have been avoided and a customer for 



lumber would have been retained 

 instead of lost. In addition, that dealer 

 could have made a handsome profit 

 from the sale of the preservative. 



Creosoted Wood is 

 the most effective 

 weapon against sub- 

 stitutes. 



Learn for what pur- 

 pose your customer 

 intends to use the 

 lumber he purchas- 

 es, and if it is to be 

 used under condi- 

 tions subjecting it 

 to decay advise treatment with creosote 

 oil, and sell him the proper grade of creo- 

 sote oil.

 fined for the treatment of lumber in any quantity
