Planing Mill Work, Etc.
In an ad of this size just about a year ago we said,
we supply mill work in hard and soft woods, rough
bill stuff, shingles, rocfing, glass, sand, wall plaster,
cement, and all building needs.” That announce-
ment contained a fact which by this time has be-
come pretty generally known throughout this coun-
ty as ‘“The Bellefonte Lumber Company” plan.
We didn’t realize at this time just how good and
big it was. But those who had to build—and pay—
during the time since then, and who came to us—
have found that the idea is worth on an average of
20 per cent. of the total cost of material bought.
Our plan of making the material fit the purpose in
both quality and in QUANTITY, and supplying
everything ourselves, saves money, time and trou-
ble to those wise enough to benefit by it.
