WI 1ETHER I am building

repairing or remodeling, I alw a s
recommend Upson PRO
CESSED Board.
"It Is the modern lining It ia
quickly and easily applied
"It is permanent can never
crack, chip or fall.
"It is washable sanitary
wonderfully attractive.
Nearly Twice at Strong
"Official Government Testing
Machines prove that Upson
Board stands nearly 400 pound!
pressure to the square inch.
Most fibre boards only stand
200 to 240 pounds.
"A strong board like Upson
Board won't pull from the nails
when the building settles as
toft, spongy boards tometimesdo.
Tlie saving in time and labor in
applying Upson Board is a big
item for the owner.
"For oii can saw, cut and han
dle Upson Board just like wood.
Upson Board JS Different
"The KILN CURING takes out
the excess moisture and pre-
shrinks the panels. Dampness
and moisture have little effect.
"It is the fine, strong wood fibres
in Upson Board plus the tre- ;
mendous pressure under which '
they are built up into panels ?
that makes Upson Board hard
and wood! ike.

"Painters tell me Upson Board
always saves the cost of a
priming coat and at least one
coat of paint as compared with
other wall boards a saving of $5
to $15 per thousand square feet.
"The oils and gums used in
priming or sizing the surface of
Upson Board are much like those
used in high-grade varnish.
"As the makers say, iTlie little
difference in price does not
measure the big difference in
quality.' "
