Re pe eh eS NU Scarcely is it possible to add to the recommendations ef the above book, more than to give its title page. Every one who is engaged in buying, selling, measuring or inspecting Lumber of any kind, will at once appreciate a work of this kind. No pains or expense has been spared in revising and enlarging this edition, to make it in every re- spect convenient and accurate, The Log Table was computed by drawing Diagrams, as shown by the cut, for each and every log, from 12 to 44 inches in diameter, and the width of each board taken, after taking off the waneedge. Thesum total of each board constitutes the amount each log will give, and if there can be any dependence plac- ed upon such strictly mathematical accuracy, no one will hesitate for a moment to abide the results here ae as the method adopted by e author can result in nothing else than strict honesty and mathemat- ical accuracy, to the parties interested. 7 : i The best evidence of the usefulness and popularity of this book is the rapid and extensive sale of over 375,000 in @ very short time, while the sale is constantly increasing. We do not hesitate to say that no book of its size and price contains more exp or correct tables. In all new and lumber countries the book will be found very con- yenient, as it comprises much that is useful for the Farmer, Mechanic, and business man. ORDERS SOLICITED, from Agents.
