A Word on White Pine Sash, Doors and Blinds and Their Merits.
The great merit of the White Pine material lies in the fact that the white pine holds the putty so much
better than yellow pine that there is hardly any comparison between them, then too, after all that, they are
so much lighter. We havelarranged matters so that we are selling the Sash at about the same price as yellow
pine. White Pine Doors are so much lighter, easier hung and dont swell and shrink and bulge like the yel
low pine. So you see they are so much superior. Please send us your orders We sell Brick, Lime, Cement,
Paints, Etc. Fine Builders’ Hardware. :: :: :: :: :: " ::
