A mill cutting nnd shipping many carload* of Western pine daily to the Eastern market*. Thercfsre the heat treating plant was located near the sawmill and was so designed as to burn shaving*, saw dust nnd other waste from the mill. These economies enabled ZONOUTR to be delivered to most parts of the United States at n cost 1 about two cents a pound. A onund of 0 NOLITE Is of considerable bulk. A tin of it na It comes from the furnace is ovnr one hundred and fifty bos'uis.
