PERRY BARTLEMAY Meacham, Oregon A8ffflg88ki the nm SHIWAVMA WOOD for cabins was the first raw material used by settlen on this continent. Today, it is a wonder-material. Hand in hand with chemistry, wood has entered a new age of useful ness. It is called our "most versatile raw material" with good reason. From wood come homes, factories, ships and planes. From wood come soft fabrics, sugar, paper, motor fuels and lubricants. From wooa compressed m plies, or chem ically treated come substances strong er than steel, that can be twisted into any form, molded into any pattern, plastics of expanding usefulness. Four thousand five hundred uses of wood have been counted, without reach ing the end. How fortunate it is that this vital product grows. It can be grown and harvested, sgain and again, a perpetual ccrvant to mfrkind. C A. w . J ' 6 . A" .... ic 01 X 01 ct 1 V Try a tine Mills Company nzn
