CYPRESS BY TEST 



Substitutes by Talk 



THE PROOF ? -2 LETTERS FROM BEEMEN : 



" Our correspondent makes serious complaints against and MAKES A PLEA FOR 



CYPRESS as a BEEHIVE MATERIAL. We hope you will look into this matter," (Etc.)-and 

 here's another : 



" Mr. , of , just came into the office. He informs us that they tried a car 



of CYPRESS LUMBER last year for the first time, and are so well pleased with it that they are 

 ORDERING ANOTHER CAR for use in making HIVE BOTTOMS." 



Is there value to you in an endurance test of 45 years in greenhouse sash ? It is reported to us that sash made 

 of heart Cypress by a prominent greenhouse contractor in Chicago, and placed in position in a greenhouse at Des 

 Plaines, 111., in 1868 are STILL DOING SERVICE. 



IT WILL SERVE YOU AS WELL and save you the nuisance and expense of repairs and replacements. 



The argument backed by such facts cannot be answered by mere talk. Ask the manufacturer or contractor 

 who wants to give you a "substitute" for Cypress to cite you to an endurance test of 30 or 45 years to the credit of 

 the so-called " substitute." 



That is no more than a fair precaution on your part — good ordinary business sense.
