Several oaks in different parts of the United 

 States are known locally aa "rock oak." but 

 that is not the proper name of any. 



No other wood of the United States Is as 

 suitable for quarter sawing as white oak. 

 Some of the red oaks measun- falrlv well up 

 to white oak in that respect, but aa a general 

 proposition they fall considerably below it.

The ecarcest of all the oaks of the United 

 States are believed to be Bartram oak and the 

 Price oak. All known specimens of these 

 two treee could stand on a single acre and 

 etlll leave conalderable ground unoccupied 



It would not make much difference so far 

 as the song l3 concerned, but it would satisfy 

 some people's curiosity If the matter could 

 be settled whether the "Old Oaken Bucket" 

 was made of white oak or of red oak. 



For 25 yeara we bave made Oak and atlll apeclallze 

 in this, the best of American hardwooda. Our prlcea, 

 grades and serrlce are worth considering.
