HARDWOOD RECORD 



EMPHIS IS visited by more do- 

 mestic and foreign buyers than 

 any other lumber center in the 

 country. Why? The alluvial 

 delta of the Mississippi river is famous as 

 the richest land in the worfd. The best 

 hardwoods grow on the best soil. The sale 

 of all this hardwood, the finest in the coun- 

 try, centers in or through Memphis. All 

 Southern species of satisfactory quality and 

 variety are available. Oak, gum, ash, 

 hickory, cottonwood, cypress, willow, tupelo, 

 red cedar. Memphis is the department 

 store of the hardwood industry — first in 

 quality, first in service. Let her serve you.
