CYPRESS BY TEST 

 SUBSTITUTES BY TALK 



The PROOF— Two 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 49 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 contrac- 

 tor 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. 



Write us for Vol. I, of the Famous Cypress Pocket Library with full U. S. Government Report on 



"The Wood Eternal."
