On August 22, the Red River Lumber Company shipped two large truck loads of oak, approximately 5,000 board feet, from the vicinity of Montgomery Creek to the veneering plant at Westwood, where extensive experiments will be made to determine the utility of this wood for veneering purposes. Both white and black oak abound on the company's land near Montgomery creek. This timber has been held to be of small value; but if it can be worked up and utilized to good advantage in veneering work, it will become one of the company's distinct assets.

Why Sell Redwood?
1| NE of our good dealer friends in a recent letter jokingly v remarked that from his standpoint one of Redwood'r big disadvantages is its permanence-its great durability meker replacements unnecessary. Nothing short of a cyclone will destroy Redwood. Fungus does not rot it and worms and insects leavc it alone. It is a slow burner. Thoroughly painted, it looks well a long time. Even unpainted, it still resists decay. A Redwood house needs little repairing. But thi3 dealer keeps right on ordering Redwood. He finds that telling these sad facts about Redwood to his customers does not drive them away.
Sometimes he even ventures to remark that accordirg to thc U. S. Government Report entitled 'Physicol, Mcchaticol ottd Chemical Properties of Redwoot' there isn't any othcr wood, either soft or hard, that averages as high on durabill:tg, hch of shrinhage, strength as a beam .or post, ease of glucing, utorkability and ability to "stay put."
