COMING OUT 



The American aiul Allied Goveniineiits are making enormous 

 demands on the supply of American Black Walnut for high-grade 

 war materials. 



The production of fine Walnut logs and slumps is progressing on 

 a scale heretofore unknown. 



Virgin forests and handsome groves ihal have been jealously 

 guarded from the woodmairs axe for generations are now yielding 

 to Democracy's requirements. 



American Walnut is "coming out" in unprecedented (piantilv an<l 

 QUALITY. 



Our Veneer Experts — in the woods and at the mills — are ever on 

 the alert for that exceptional quality of figured wood that distinguishes 

 PENROD PRODUCTS. Out of the flood of timber reaching our 

 mills, we are selecting finer quality and greater variety of rare veneer 

 wood than we have ever offered before. 



Ami, get this: We haven't added a penny to our veneer prices 

 since the beginning of the war. We will not make any advance in 

 price prior to January 1st. After that — we're not promising. We're 

 going to do our best but the odds are against us. 



So now is the time to make selections and place your orders for 

 your 1918 requirements. Our stock is complete; our quality supreme; 

 our prices right. 



Wire or write for samples and we'll help you solve your veneer 

 problem for another twelve months.
