Dear Slr:- 



In answer to your letter of May 25, we will 

 say that we are highly pleased with the Forked Leaf 

 Brand of Oak Flooring purchased of you In Janusry. 



The select oak was graded as high as most 

 manufacturers' clear oak flooring. One of the con- 

 tractors to whom we sold flooring for 4 houses states 

 that your flooring is so evenly matched that it will 

 save about $5.00 worth of labor on every thousand 

 feet, compared with some other brands he had been 

 using. 



We are certainly glad that we got In touch 

 with your brand of oak flooring, as it will no doubt 

 be a f^ood drawing card for our business. 



Very truly yotirs, 

 SCHAAF MNFC. CO..

 Gentlemen: The Standard Perfected Band Resaw which we bought of you a year 

 ago is giving us perfect satisfaction. It has never failed us once, but it is on the 

 job and ready for business all the time, and the more you give it the better it 

 seems to like it. 



Respectfully,

It Tells Just What the Consumers Use 



A NY hardwood or veneer man considers his personal knowledge of the requirements of his own 

 trade his greatest asset. 



But he realizes that if that knowledge is confined to a limited number of concerns his sales will be the same year 

 after year. Hence to grow he must acquire more knowledge regarding other possible customers. 



Do you as a seller of hardwoods or veneers think it is good business to invest years of your time and quantities 

 of your money to gather that knowledge when you can get logically collated first-hand and absolutely live and 

 authentic information on thousands of such consumers and can have the use of it immediately after application.^ 



The cost is nominal and the service is elastic in its form and can be made to fit your peculiar requirements 

 exactly. Write now and get the benefit of the annual corrections.
