High Humidity Dry Kiln 



Does your kiln provide 

 these essentials? 



1. A circulation which is con- 

 stant and uniform deliver- 

 ing automatically humidi- 

 fied air to all the lumber 

 equally. 



2. A kiln so designed that the 

 humidified air travels across 

 only 31 feet of lumber thus 

 insuring uniform drying. 



3. A large volume of air blow- 

 ing 24 hours per day with 

 no dead or stagnant pock- 

 ets to retard drying. 



4. The above is your guaran- 

 tee of quality drying. 



5. The price is reasonable and 

 right.
