CAPITOL ROLLS WIN
Excellent Character in Selection Recording and
Making Assures Big and Continuous Sales
for the Products.
The February bulletin of the Capitol Roll & Record
Co., 721 North Kedzie avenue, Chicago, is a powerful
aid to new and bigger business for dealers handling
this excellent line. Capitol Rolls have the qualities
that keep customers once they are made. These
qualities are apparent in various features of the
products.
The Capitol Rolls have extra choruses, are longer
than the usual roll, have printed words, are hand
played and sell for a remarkably favorable price,
when all their superior qualities are considered.
Keen watchfulness of public taste, rare judgment
in the selection of tunes, rigid care in the recording
are plain to hearers and players when a Capitol Roll
is used on a playerpiano. But other important fea-
tures appeal to the buyer of rolls. The Capitol Rolls,
for instance, are made of the best materials obtain-
able, a fact which is a guarantee of a wearing quality
in the rolls. The Capitol Rolls stand continuous
wear over a long period, something that pleases the
customer and adds to the character of the house,
for selling reliable goods.
The new bulletin comprises popular word rolls,
standard word rolls and matches. Big sellers in Uni-
fied Marimba Rolls are listed. The appealing char-
acter of the rolls is exemplified in the following list
of late releases:

OUR WOOD SUPPLY.
The developing of foreign sources for timber supply
is a problem of vital importance, not only to check
the devastating drain on the domestic forests but to
guarantee the very existence of many of the American
wood-using industries, according to experts. Here
the consumption is so large and the requirements of
the wood-using industries of the country are growing
so rapidly that, in the opinion of experts, production
is no longer keeping pace with demand. It is said
that American forests are being cut four times as
fast as they are being- replaced by new growth and
replantation. But in Brazil the experts see an ade-
quate source of supply to which the American market
may turn to satisfy its needs. In fact, Brazil, with
something like 5,000 billion board feet of standing
timber, is in a position of special advantage when the
problem of a large supply of hardwoods for the
American market is considered.
