. Canadian forest industries 1897-1899. Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. October, 1899 THE CJLJST^JDJL XvUMBERlwlAItf New Allis Telescopic Band Mill. For Either Single or Double Toothed Saws Is built on correct mechanical principles. This entire mill is moved vertically, so that the centre of the upper band wheel can be brought down close to the top of the smallest log, thereby having a saw shorter than a gang saw above the work on any sized log, thus doing away with upper guide. The vertical movement keeps the surplus length of saw blade below instead of above the log. The upper wheel acting as the guide, insures the greatest possible rigidity of the saw, enabling the saw to stand more feed than on the ordinary band mill. Manufactured in Canada only by THE WATEEODS ENGINE WORKS CO BRANTFORD, CANADA As a Double Cutting Mill No Offset—carriage travels at uniform speed each way, saving rack and strain. Safer—each side of saw cuts its own clearance. Smoother lumber ; teeth not cutting almost plane the lumber in passing. Saws—last longer, require less work to keep in order—strain being equal on both edges. Increased Cut—30 to 50% with practically no additional cost. Adjustment to depth of cut quicker than operating the old guide. J. D. Shier, Bracebridge, Ont., has run this mill as a double cutter night and day all season, and verifies the above statements. He is more than pleased, says no one can afford to cut lumber with any other mill. The Rat Portage Lumber Co., Norman, Ont., have run it as a single cutter all season, and are especially well pleased. PLEASE NOTE.—Our capacity is limited—even with increased facilities and very much larger force—we have been and are running to our utmost capacity. Prices are advancing in sympathy with the large and steady increase in raw materials. To obtain earliest delivery—probably then later than desired— orders should be placed at once. Some recognizi
