Cattle Shed
A valuable car will depricate very rapidly in value and
use unless it is properly protected from the cold weather.
-Thousands of dollars are lostto the farmers of this state
by poor granaries and insufficient storage facilities.
Well protected hogs fatten quicker and are a better im
provement. Do not allow your chickens to roost all over the farm.
Give them a building of their own.
Coal slacks very rapidly when exposed to the elements.
Save dollars and get better service by storing your coal
in a well built shed.
An implement shed is a necessity on every farm and
ranch. They quickly pay for themselves in saving ma
chinery from rust and decay.
Hold your spuds for the high prices in the winter. Pro
tect them by a well-built cellar. We have the heavy
timebrs needed.
The modern ranch protects its valuable stock by building
of sheds. Lumber is much cheaper than beef.
The policy of the FOREST LUMBER COMPANY is to
provide the quality and service. Wc carry an immense
stock of all kinds and grades of lumber and are able to
fill orders of all sizes quickly and in a satisfactory manner.
