MAPLE is unquestionably the best wood for alley beds. It is hard, white, durable, even grained and when properly seasoned and dried, will remain as laid without shrinking or warping. That is, the best maple will do all this. We are large buyers of maple for alleys and other purposes, and get direct from the mills the highest grade of Hard, White (Rock) Maple. Such stock as is never carried by city yards—they have no call for it. This fine stock enables us to build alley beds that are clear white from end to end, without spots or streaks, level and true. The ideal bowling surfaces.
