Notice to Timber Men We have orders for 20,000 No. 1. cross ties from White Oak, Post, and Chestnut oak, standard specifics 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 speci 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 ^>ark peeled off when either sawed or hewed. A great many haulers lose their grade by measuring with their axe handles (tnd we would ask that you cut a pole exactly eight and one half feet long and make all ties according to this letigth, and notch it for 7 inches to get face and thickness. At this time we ata» wish to thank the hundreds of people who sold their timber to ua 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 kinds,) also Hickory and Ash we will pay 50 cents for No. l's, and 40 csnts for No. 2's, same specifications as above.
