 Dear Sirs: 



From the fact that our timber in long lengths is cut 

 up at our log slide into sawmill lengths, it was with some mis- 

 givings that we purchased from you two years ago one of your odd 

 length trimmers. It seemed scarcely possible to us that so very 

 much economy in manufacture could be secured by the employment 

 of this equipment. 



Our daily cut is approximately 100,000 ft. at this mill, 

 and we are pleased to advise you that this odd length trimmer 

 equipment has given us an average daily over-run in cut of 

 approximately 2 7o over what we would have secured on an even 

 length trimmer. 



We are pleased to further advise that the machine 

 purchased from you has been entirely satisfactory and has 

 particular merits of substantial build, good workmanship, low 

 power cost, convenience and high efficiency. 



Very sincerely yours, 



YELLOW POPLAR LUMBER COMPANY, 



If any lumber manufacturer has any doubt about the increased profit that can be ob- 

 tained by employing an odd length trimmer it should be dispelled by the foregoing letter. 



Is 2,000 feet daily over-run worth while, and how long will it take for 2 per cent daily 

 increased lumber output — without cost — to pay for an up-to-date trimmer? 



Let us quote you price on our specially designed and thoroughly efficient odd length 

 trimmer.
