. Canadian forest industries July-December 1920. Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. 62 CANADA LUMBERMAN AND WOODWORKER September l, 1920 Beautiful ^ ^. Though not a hardwood, BRIT- ISH COLUMBIA WESTERN HEM- LOCK is possessed of a grain surpassed in sheer attractiveness! by the grains of few timber spe- cies. Certainly it is the most ornamental of West- ern woods for inside finish ing. Taking a high polish, free from pitch, and showing a beau- tiful grain, it is the ideal wood for wainscot, panels and floors. It is hard and not easily dented and has a uniformly firm grain which on dry- ing does not show the minute corrugations characteristic of certain timbers having a marked difference between summer and fall wood. For strength, ease of working and freedom from shake, BRITISH COLUMBIA WESTERN HEMLOCK is becom- ing more noted throughout the country each day. We'll be glad to send you BRITISH COLUMBIA WEST- ERN HEMLOCK in mixed carloads, along with our other BIG CHIEF Brand Spec- ialties,—British Columbia Red Cedar Shingles, and Cedar and Fir lumber in all sizes known to high-class manufacture.
