Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Lumberman's Directory and Reference Book of the United States and Canada: Containing Lists of Saw, Shingle, Planing, Stave, Heading, Veneer, and Hoop Mills, Sash, Door and Blind, Woodenware and Box Factories, Log Dealers, Wholesale and Retail Lumber Dealers, Etc With this volume of the lumberman's directory and reference book OF the united states and canada is presented an entirely new compilation, containing several features never before incorporated in a directory or reference book, and which add greatly to the convenience and value of the work. Among these features are: Giving details as to nature of business, whether wholesale. Retail, commission dealer or manufacturer; kinds of woods sawed or dealt in, kind of power and style of saws used, and daily capacity of mills, financial rating of firms, the rules for inspection, classification. And measurement of lumber used in the various markets of the country; a digest of the different State laws affecting lumbermen and lumbering and liens for materials; a selected list of machinery and mill supply houses, by which a prospective purchaser of machinery or supplies can see at a glance where his needs can be supplied. In compiling the work great care has been taken to secure accuracy, the information being gathered both by personal solicitation and circulars sent through the mail, a large force of men having been engaged for over a year, and no pains or expense being spared in prosecuting the work, as the publishers aim to furnish a reference book that will be as perfect as in human power to make. The same policy will be pursued in the future, even in a greater degree, as it is the intention to issue the Directory annually. The digest of the various State laws relating to lumbermen and lumbering and liens for materials have been compiled expressly for this work, and will be thoroughly revised each issue. In giving financial rating we have endeavored to be fair and impartial, using our best endeavors to secure correctness and reliability. In conclusion we beg leave to tender thanks to our many patrons for the generous patronage given the work, and which we will ever strive to merit.
