Figure what you got for what you are paying. What would such services have cost you from any other source? Figure the value to your family each month of good light ing, your radio, your electric refriger ator, your iron, your electric range, your electric water heater.

The 'selection of unsuitable lumber for ; a given purpose leads to needless [ waste. For instance, a wood with I high strength properties may be j selected for the siding of a barn j when what is needed Is a wood i having good painting and weath- I ering qualities and ability to stay I in place. I For barn joists, rafters, and I plates woods with high bending ! strength, good nail-holding pow er, moderate shrinkage and me dium ease of working are requir ed. Woods combining these quali ties in a high degree include Douglas-flr, western larch, end southern yellow pine. Others are ash. beech, birch, maple, and oak but these are harder to nail and work. Cypress, eastern hemlock, western hemlock, redwood, east ern spruce, Sitka spruce, white fir, elm, sweetgum, hackherry, sycamore, tupelo, and yellow pop lar have the usual requirements In a good degree. Mangers for stock require a wood that has hardness and does not splinter easily and good woods tor this purpose include ash, beech, birch, black locust, osage- orange, rock elm, hickory, maple, oak, soft elm, sweetgum, and tupelo. Cypress, Douglas.-fir, west ern larch, southern yellow pine, and redwood have the necessary requirements In a fair degree. Stall floors require wood with high decay resistance and uni form hardness, which means that thewood will not splinter easily. Woods classified as high in this respect include heartwood of white oak, which is the principal wood used. Ash, beech, birch, elms, black gum, hickory, maple, and red oak require thorough' preservative treatment for use for i this purpose. Where the wear is j light, planks made from heart- wood of . cypress, Douglas-fir, western larch, southern yellow pine, redwood, and sweetgum will give good service. 41 .‘rA-aWSr-f'*' • “OmCERS AND DELEGATES Attendbg the 16th Annual Conclave Caroline Moose Association We hope you will enjoy your visit to North Wilkesboro, and that every session of your conclave will be a great success.
