A floor to adore 



For thirty-three years Wilce's Hardwood Floor- 

 ing has been among the foremost on the market 

 and because it stands today "uncqualed" is the 

 best evidence that its manufacturer has kept 

 abreast of modern methods and the advanced de- 

 mands of the trade. To convince yourself of the 

 above statements, try our polished surface floor- 

 ing, tongued and grooved, hollow backed, with 

 matched ends and holes for blind nailing — you'll 

 6nd it reduces the expense of laying and polishing. 



Our Booklet telU all about Hardwood Flooring 

 and how to care for it — also prices — and is free.

and 



Easiest Handling 



buy the 



Hoosier Self Feed Rip Saw. This machine has earned thousands 

 of dollars for owners in the manufacture of dimension lumber, crating, 

 etc., because its entirely novel design, resulting in surprising ease of 

 operation and adaptability, makes possible a profit where a loss is 

 often expected in this work. The 



Hoosier Self-Feed Rip Saw 



has a positive and powerful feed which handles the heaviest material 

 as readily as the lightest. 



The table, raised and lowered with the crank in front of the ma- 

 chine, is always level — always securely locked. 



The Hoosier rips anything up to 6 inches thick and 17 inches wide. 

 It feeds 35, 75, 100 or ISO feet a minute.
