Ways to Saw Moncyy/ 
T HE first thing is to see money where you never saw it 
Why, there is some. Don’t you see it, right over there in 
wood-lot ? 
You have always had to pay somebody to turn your standing 
timber into lumber. 
Don’t you see money in doing it yourself ? 
And there is some more money. Look at it in that wood- 
lot that belongs to your neighbor. 
Some of that money in his wood-lot is your money, 
if you only see it so. 
But look quickly and act quickly, or he may see 
it before you do and keep you from getting the 
money that is yours in his timber. And what s 
more, he’s just as likely as not to be asking 
you for the money he has found in your 
wood-lot, if he gets busy before you do. 
So look alive and see the money and 
then plan to get all that’s coming to you. 
Why, don’t you see profit, real 
money profit, in cutting up his 
logs for him into lumber? 
There now—you see it 
—saw it. 
Yes, saw the money 
right out of your 
own timber, and 
his, too.

Out of Your 
Standing Timber 
with an 
“American” Saw Mill 
First get 
the 
saw. 
Lumber was never higher than now. Why not cut that standing timber on the wood-lot 
and turn it into first-class lumber while prices are high? It is useless as it is, and makes the 
ground it’s on useless. 
But that timber represents thousands of feet of good lumber—thousands of laths and pickets and 
shingles, hundreds of posts and cross tres and slabs, and bale after bale of excelsior. 
The stumps will furnish fire-wood for many a winter. And the cleared ground—rich with the forest 
mold—will yield crops adding hundreds of dollars to the farm income. 
An “ American” Saw Mill will make the lumber, ties, posts and slabs; an “ American” Shingle Machine, 
“American” Lath Mill and an “American” Wood Saw will work up the odd pieces into marketable stuff. 
You may not need them all. Perhaps an “American” Saw Mill alone will do for your work. But all are moderate 
in price and have the qualities which make them great money-makers. They are investments with big earning power. 
We build the largest, most diversified line of saw mill machinery in the world. Our machines are so simple that 
anyone can run them—so strong that they wear indefinitely—so well built that the average farm engine gives all the power 
needed—and so moderate in price that anyone can buy them. Dealers all over the country carry the “American” line and can 
make quick delivery at lowest freight rates, either from their own stock or from our local warehouses in all sections. We pay special 
attention to farm business and it is one of our largest lines.
