GUM BOX BOARDS 



Till- care which any luinhcr receives or does not receive on 

 the mill yard is reflected in its condition when it reaches 

 your factory. In no case is this more true than with gum box boards. 



The photograph shows our exacting care of this stock — the most careful piling 

 possible, protecting boards on front and rear of all piles and a perfect alignment 

 of foundations. This is done because we want you to be pleased with our lumber — 

 not just because we like to do it. 



Just bear this photograph in mind when you need bo.x boards. It won't cost 

 anything to let us quote you and we can prove you will get perfect stock.
