HARDWOOD RECORD 



RSB CUM 



A few words to the users of this excellent wood and those who contemplate using it. 



Many years' experience in the manufacture and marketing of this item of stock have satisfied us that 

 in this wood, more than in any other hardwood, the successful consuming manufacturers insist upon 

 having only high quality stock — not only as to grade, but manufacture and careful handling while in pile 

 for seasoning. 



Choice logs do not always produce good lumber — it depends largely upon how much care is exer- 

 cised in the process of manufacture; nor does the production of high quality stock end here — it must be 

 carefully put into piles and sufficient piling sticks used to insure its drying out flat. 



When you are about to place an order for Gum, some of the essentials that suggest themselves to 

 you are : 



Full and uniform thickness. 



Very dry stock that in the process of drying has remained flat and straight. 



Good range of widths and lengths to assure you of a good yield of clear cuttings of various sizes you 

 require. 



Last, but not least, after placing orders you want them executed promptly and on time — also honest 

 grading and measurement. 



We are equipped with six band mills, backed by our own timber lands, to give you that kind of 

 stock and unexcelled service.
