Hundreds and hundreds of times'in these editorial columns we have said to the asp-iring and'ambitious lumber merchant rvho is trying to CREATE business: "Sell them lawn furniture in the spring and summer months."

But the difficulty of telling them whpre'to-get. plans and ideas for such furniture, so that they.'could visualize it to the:r trade-sell them through the. eyes-was: an ahvays present one.

[-Tp to this time there has never been'ih. existence, so far as we know, a comprehensive book,on. lhwn furniture of enough scope and character to be of material assistance to a lrrmber merchant in selling such stuff to,his trade. There have been small sources of such supply, but they have been very limited.

Norv comes the merchandising department of The LongBell Lumber Company. at Kansas City. with a book that clelights the eye of the building merchant,-"The Book of I-arvn Furniture." It is 36 p-ages ancl cover, handsomely printed, and illustrated with exactly 90 pictures of lau'n furnitrrre of beaut_v. practicability a:rd generous variety. With this in his hands any lumber merchant anywhere can sell a wide variety of larvn futniture to a big list of people, rvithout duplication. There are fences, pergolas, screens, gates, chairs, seats, corners. garages, swings, playhouses, lattices, ornaments, arches, entrances, arbors entire sets, complete gardens, lawns, tree-seats, etc.

It should be prominently on the plan table of every retailer who merchandises.
