The ltost Highly Perfected Lumber Garrier Made

fn the past few years all operators of modern mills have recognized that the most efficient way of handling yard, transportation is with the Carrier System. The only problem then was to secure a Carrier that in its operation and durability would properly and reliably meet with this new condition.

So it was, with 34 yeats of experience in building power transportation equipment behind him, that Mr. Carl F. Gerlinger set himself to the task of producing the ideal lutnber carrier. Out of the years of study and experiment came the application of the time-tried hydraulic principle to the lumber carrier. The present GERLINGER is the result of this efiort. Its many distinctive features and points of superiority are now quickly placing it in the forefront of its field.

W'e earnestly believe this new Model HS to be easily the most highly beveloped, simply constructed, strongest, reliable' carrier made.

At the end of that time the.Little River Redwood Company will have second growlh. timber, some as old as one hundred years, good commercial trees that will keep their mills humming.

In 1925 they planted 295,00d seedlings, and to date have planted better than 50 per cent of their cutover land. Many acres of the land that was logged seventeen years ago has pany of San Francisco, of which Mr. H. W. Sinnock is the very capable executive.

The illustrations which accompany this story were selected for the purpose of illustrating the splendid timber, unusual milling and shipping facilities, and economical and efficient milling operations of the Little River Redwood Company.

The private oflice ofW.H. Dunning, in San Francisco, should really be added to this story, although no picture was available. Many of the Redwood concerns have made use of their own wood in their San Francisco offices to show how beautifully Redwood can be used for interior finish, trim, doors, etc., but none of them to better advantage than has the Little River Redwood Company in this San Francisco ofifice, where the Redwood interior effects are wonderful.

This concern also gives much of its attention to the exploiting of Redwood for use where beautiful interior and exterior wood effects are desired. They have in their colIection many wonderful pictures of interiors where Redwood was used in a variety of ways, to rival the most wonderful cabinet woods of the world for effect and result.

Altogether, the Little River Redwood Company, its equipment, its personnel and its business activities are of a character thirt btings.' mirch,tiedit to'itre' Redwood busi-

The Hilke Piler will double or triple your yard's capacity by higher piling. Higher piling reduces costs in any yard, regardless of space available. Doubling height of piles cuts hauling distance in half-also time, labor, alleys and their upkeep; it cuts in two cost of pile bases and roofing boards.
