The Long-Bell Lumber Cornpany has recently announced a new type of door, to be known as the Long-Belt King.
The outstanding feature of the Long-Bell King door is the attractive flush moulding, which gives simplicity and style, yet accentuates the panel.
The 3-ply rotary cut veneer panel is inserted one-half inch into the stiles and rails, the width of the grooves being the same size as the thickness of the panel. This results in an exact fit, and insures strength and freedom from rattling.
The Long-Sell King door is manufactured throughout of California White Pine. Hardwood dowels are used exclusivell,; waterproof glue is used on all veneer panels.
The nerv product may be had with either veneered or solid stiles. The core of the veneered stile is built up of strips and blocks of California White Pine, put together with waterproof glue, and gives maximirm assurance against warping.
Among the items for which an increase in appropriation is urged are: forest experiment station and allied work, foresi economics, forest range land investigations, forest pathology, forest entomology, forest meterology and forest biology.
