Text Appearing After Image:
THE BEST PRACTICE in the large Saw Mills of to-day is to use a Band Mill, and in connection with it a Band Re-Saw. By means of the Re-Saw the capa- city of the Mill is nearly doubled, and with but a slight increase in the cost of operating it. Then in box, furniture and other factories, where there is splitting or re-sawing to be done, a Band Re-Saw not only does more work in a given time than any other machine, but works more economically, as it produces a minimum of saw kerf. If you have re-sawing to do, let us hear from you; we will be pleased to give you further information.
