Panoramic View of Cleveland-Sarnia Saw Mills Company's Plant, F and efficiency., the one running the larger mill being 24 x 42 inches in size. The entire power plant equipment was furnished by John Inglis & Sons, of Toronto, Ont. The board mill is equipped with two Allis-Chalmers single cut- ting band mills. The general saw mill equipment is from the same company and comprises all its most modern saw mill equipment in the way of carriages, timber planers, log decks, live rolls, steam niggers, trips, edgers, trimmers, slashers, lath mill and curtain roll manufacturing equipment. The mill frame is of the most substan- tial character and is placed on a massive foundation, while the general equipment has strength enough to handle timber of the largest size.

The com- pany have large quantities of standard grades of white pine and norway always in stock, but a specialty is made of special bills of norwa'y, white pine and of Douglas fir timber brought from the Pacific Coast.
