CHAS. G. BIRD LOOKS OVER SAN FRANCISCO MARKET
Chas. G. Bird, Stockton Lumber Co., was a San Francisco visitor around the middle of the month; where he was calling on the trade and looking over lumber market conditions in the Bay District. He was boosting the contemplated Stockton Hoo Hoo Concatenation to be held at Calaveras Grove in May, which will be held in conjunction with the rnonthly meeting of the Central California Lgmbermen's Club, and wants a big delegation from the Bay District to attend.
In the l4 rooms, 4500 feet of l3/16x21/a in. face clear oak was used. Never was there a more beautiful foor. The texture and pattern made possible a finish that is seldomfound in any other fooring. Generations from now this same foor will still retain its original beauty. Yet this cost him no more than a number of other brands.
There's a size and grade of"Perfection" Brand Oak Flooring for every typeof structure, ne!\' or old. For full information $'rite today.
