'TOOD FOR THOUGHT' 



"Wish to say that we were very much pleased with the appearance of 

 the Kraetzer Cured Gum recently sent us ; in fact, it was the nicest looking 

 car of Gum we have ever had in our yards." 



Thi.s letter was received from a larijc user of Gum Lumber, who later 



advised us his loss on this car through their factory was only 2'^r . (Note: 



We have since received from this firm an order for 11 additional cars.) 



To the buyer who desires QUALITY lumber we would like to send a list 



and description of our stock. We do not make "fluctuating" grades of lumber
