Notice to
Timber Men
We have orders for 20,000 No. 1. cross ties from
White Oak, Post, and Chestnut oak, standard specifica
tions of 7"X8"X8 feet and 6 inches long, when sawed and
7"X7" hewed, same length as sawed.
We also have order for 5,000 No. 2 cross ties, to be
any size under the above sizes, down to 6"X7" and length
to be the same as for No. ones, also to be from above
kinds of oak timber.
Almost all timber haulers already know the specie
fication and we mention this for those who will be getting
out timber this year who have not made ties before.
Also all this timber must be sound, all knots smoothed
off with the tie and all bark peeled off when either sawed
or hewed.
A great many haulers lose their grade by measuring
with their axe handles #nd we would ask that you cut a
pole exactly eight and one half feet long and make all
ties according to this length, and notch it for 7 inches to
get face and thickness.
At this time we also wish to thank the hundreds of
people who sold their timber to us last year and beg to
assure them of the same fair and courteous treatment for
the coming season.
The price, effective February 1st is 60 cents each for
No. 1 ties and 50 cents for second class.
For Red Oak, Spanish Oak, and all other kinds of
oak (except the above mentioned kinda,) also Hickory
and Ash we will pay 50 cents for No. l's, and 40 cents for
No. 2's, same specifications as above.
Your Friends,
