1980 ad~boise cascade corp~long time to grow a 2X4~wood
AD READS: IT TAKES A LONG TIME TO GROW A 2x4. THE WOOD AND PAPER PRODUCTS WE USE EVERY DAY ARE SO COMMONPLACE IT'S EASY TO FORGET HOW LONG IT TOOK TO MAKE THEM. bUT THE FACT IS, THE PAPER YOU'RE LOOKING AT RIGHT NOW COULD HAVE COME FROM A TREE THAT TOOK SEED WHEN HERBERT HOOVER WAS PRESIDENT. WHICH MEANS THE PAPER YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE LOOKING AT 50 YEARS FROM NOW COULD WELL COME FROM TREES THAT GET THEIR START TODAY. THAT'S WHY WE'LL PLANT UP TO SIX SEEDLINGS TODAY FOR EVERY TREE WE HARVEST, AND WHY WE'LL NURTURE AND THIN AND PROTECT THEM UNTIL THEY'VE COME OF AGE. AS A COMPANY THAT MAKES AND MARKETS WOOD AND PAPER PRODUCTS, OUR FUTURE DEPENDS ON THOSE SEEDLINGS. THEY'RE OUR LIFE'S BLOOD, AND WE AIM TO LIVE A LONG TIME. WE AIM TO SUPPLY YOUR KIDS WITH ALL THE BOISE CASCADE WOOD AND PAPER PRODUCTS THEY'LL EVER NEED...AND THEIR KIDS TOO, FOR THAT MATTER.
