HARDWOOD RECORD 



,- The GiUE Tbat Is Applied Coi d 



In Flush Veneered Doors 



The chief consideration is uniformly high- 

 grade glue. Manufacturers of this modern 

 type of door realize tliat its development 

 has been retarded because the unavoid- 

 able lack of uniformity in other types of 

 glue makes it impossible to know how 

 long a door will stav in condition. The 



Use 



< >f vegetable glue insures absolute uni- 

 formity because of the very nature of pre- 

 paring it and because every pound of our 

 raw material is rigidly inspected. 



Vegetable Glue 



Is also a rigid and permanent adherent; 

 will not blister in sanding; has no dis- 

 agreeable odor; will not deteriorate in 

 standing — for a week if necessary; and 

 can be applied cold without any heating 

 application of any kind in the glue room. 

 In addition, the average saving over 

 former glue bills has been twenty per cent 

 where vegetable glue is used.

Dear Sirs: — /( is now about a year since tie added 

 a veneer door department to our operations. Decid- 

 inij on the glue uhich would give best results, we

 the one we wanted in order to turn out the most de- 

 pendabU doors and panels, and it has been gratifying

O. ^. Soverign. preaident of the North American Construction Company 

 of Bay City, Mich., whose mills throughout the country are running twenty 

 hours a day to keep up with the demand for ready-cut bouaea that the 

 compauy has created, regards the present business situation optimlatlcaliy. 

 "It we keep our hat out of the ring we will have the greatest period of 

 prosperity In our history," he sn.vs. "It will be necessary for us to double 

 our capacity in lOlS." As previously announced In IIabdwood Uecobd, 

 the Gay City company will build at Esscxvllle, MIcb., one of the largeat 

 manufacturing pinuls in Michigan. 



The .\. F. Aley Timber Company of Escanaba, MIcb., Is preparing for 

 the winter logging season. The .Vley company will employ 150 men In 

 iis operations. There arc reported to be more than enough men available 

 ;cir Michigan lumber camps. 



The Knapp & Scott mill at Bay City is cutting logs for K. B. Ward. 

 .\ tralnlend of twenty-six cars per day is received from northern woods. 



The I'ryor sawmill at Illpley, .Mich., which has bi-in operating two ahifta 

 the greater part of the sumiiur bos reduced its force to one shift. A large 

 cut has been made and the output will be still further increased before the 

 mill closes for the season. 



Fire destroyed the factory and lumber yard of the Brown Basket Company 

 at Midland, Mich. Loss, |:20.000. 



The Bliss & VnnAuken sawmill at Saginaw, which was recently destroyed 

 liy lire, is being rcbaiit and will be operated liy the Strabic Manufacturing 

 Company, as before the (Ire. The M. Garland Company of Bay City, la 

 mnnufacturinp: machinery for the new mill. 



The Buell-Crocker Lumber Company, a concern In which Prank Buell of 

 Hay City is the principal stockholder, has gone Into the hnnda nf receiver* 

 .'ippolnted by the superior court of Pender county. North Carolina. The 

 company has large holdings but Inability to realise quickly and the 

 pressing demands of small creditors forced the application for receivers. 



\V. T. Bradford, president of the Consolidated Lumber Company, which 

 operales a mill at .Manlatique. Mich., says the present year has been a 

 good one. The mill Is operating day and night shifts to 1)11 contracta 

 calling for delivery this year. A sinking fund deposit with the Union 

 Trubt Company of Detroit is more than sulhcient to meet bonds of the 

 company duo .January 1, 1915. 



The planing and flooring mill of the W. E. Williams Company, Inc., at 

 Traverse City has resumed operations after an Idleness of two ye.irs. A 

 stiamer has been chartered and will operate, carrying lumber between 

 Mcnonnnee and Traverse City iinlll ih<- il<i^.. of navl riiiiin. (Iilier Indus- 

 tries at Traverse City are operating steadily and there la a feeling that 

 the town Is about to regain some of its lost woodworking supremocy. 



There still remains a distressing inactivity at Boyne City. The steamer 

 Heynoids took a million feet of lumber from the Bo.vne City Lumber 

 Company's docks and thereby caused a futile hope that the company 

 would resume operations. The million feet off the docks would provide 

 work for only a few days, so the plant was not started. The White 

 '■ompjiuy's yards and docks are loaded to capacities. Unless there Is an 

 iinexpecled change In the lumber industry. Boyne City may endure a longer 

 Miell of Inactivity. The condition applies not only to Boyne City but Is 

 typical, to a more or less degree, of other lumber towns In Michigan. 



The Sickelsteel Lumber Company Is centralizing its yards at Detroit. 

 Hiiidwood stocks aigregatine more than a million fret now held at three 

 yerds in Detroit will be centered In the company's largest yard. The- 

 arrangement will expedite the handling of shipments, as unexcelled side- 

 track facilities will be available.
