The facilities of the new lumber and building material sales area will be one of the most complete and modern facilities of its type in California. Combining these facilities with the stores, offices and warehouse rentals available to allied trades, Santa Ynez Valley will have one of the first one-stop construction trade centers developed on the coast.

Nielsen Building Materials, fnc., is owned and operated by Mr. Nielsen with his sons, Daryl and Alton, and his daughter Thora Mae. The family's new \zalley Industrial Center should further its fame as comparably as one of its famed tenants, that "Old Metalcraft Shop" whose Danish modern stoves of its own manufacture in Solvang, Calif., are sold over a wide area of the U. S.

The Center, as far as is known, is the first of its kind in Santa Barbara county and the Nielsens have every right to be gratified with the early response to its construction and facilities.
