"Does Lumber Merchant Advertising Pay"? I'll Say it Does-Says Ralke

In this issue lf. V. Cowan, Inc., builders of built-in things, begin a big advertising campaign. But even before the advertising began, they were getting big returns on their campaign, so claims C. H. Ralke, Sal,es Manager for Cowan.

The way it happened rvas this: In the last issue of The California Lumber Merchant announcement was made in the news columns of their dealer-agent plan. Without waiting for the advertising announcement of the plan, lumber dealers from various parts of California, as well as a number from other states, sent in inquiries for information. Within a few days several dealers had bought dealer display installations of Cowan kitchen built-ins. One dealer is fixing up his private office as a display room.

"Boy, how they must read this Lumber Merchant," says Ralke.
