The Advantages Of Choosing A Premium Rug Pad
A premium rug pad can add years of life to area rugs and floors. Since rugs and floors are walked on, the purpose of a rug pad is to protect the rug and the floor. While all rug pads are supposed to protect, a premium rug pad provides the best protection.
A quality premium rug pad is dense
The way a rug pad protects the rug and floor is by adding resistance to things that can wear the rug and scratch or damage the floor. The rug pad should be soild and dense enough to provide this resistance. A quality premium rug pad should be dense enough so when walking on it, one does not feel the foot sinking to the floor. This will prevent premature wear to the back of a rug and to the floor.
A quality premium rug pad does not contain chemicals or adhesives
Many rug pads are mass produced and contain chemicals or adhesives that can stick to floors. There are many stories of rug pads harming floors and a premium rug pad should consist of natural materials.Recycled jute and natural rubber are materials that are safe for all floors. Since there are no chemicals in these types of premium rug pads, the rug and floor are safe, they are air quality friendly and the rug pads rarely possess an odor.
A premium rug pad adds comfort
Premium rug pads should be solid, as opposed to rug pads with holes. The premium rug pad adds an extra layer of comfort for walking, sitting and playing on the rug.
There are premium rug pads by name and by quality. Any rug pad named Premium is not necessarily a premium rug pad. When choosing your premium rug pad, rather than look for it by its name, look at the material and composition. The best premium rug pad should be made by a needle punching process to provide density and should contain recycled felt jute or natural rubber, not a rubber like substance. Using the proper premium rug pad under your rugs and on your floors will add years of life to each. You may view premium rug pads and read about them at Rug Pad Corner

I've found a number of deeds dating from the 1920s to 30s How would I determine if they still had any value?
While looking through some old boxes, I've found deeds from various companies that total several thousand dollars (Canadian) at the time. They were primarily Canadian and the companies included "Premium Tire and Rubber Company", along with others. How would I be able to figure out if they still had any value?
I guess it's a stock certificate..
By deeds I assume you mean stock. You do not want to discard these at all because at the time, they were the only record a purchaser had of ownership in the company.
You will have to research each one, which can be a daunting task. But it IS worth it. In a stack of certificates there may be one or two that are a windfall for you.
A librarian or a business school librarian can give you advice and point you in the right direction. There are reference materials at libraries that track and cross reference companies as they change through the years. Make sure you make photocopies of the stock as the certificates are the only thing you have to go on for now (losing one means you have no record).
Then, you need to contact the current companies' "stockholder services" departments to find out current value. These addresses and phone numbers are listed on websites for the current company. You can also guess at a few and call the company you think is the one, many times an employee at one firm will know about other companies' stock because they have to field these calls anyway from other stockholders. If you want to avoid the hassle of research, hire a financial advisor to do the work for you.
Would venture a guess that some of these companies either merged with or were bought out by US companies sometime in their history. They may have had a Canadian "shell" company set up but still have been affiliated with a US company. Premium Tire and Rubber may have been the Canadian version of Goodyear Premium Tire and Rubber, for example. You'll have to research and find out.
As far as value goes, in the event of merger or buyouts, your deed/stock certificates would be worth more as each company swapped stock in the buyout (cash and stock to the owners of the old stocks) or replaced stock with the new company's stock . Sometimes if a stock price goes too high, a stock "split" occurs meaning that you get twice as many stock shares but at half the price. Naturally a stock owner can make out well on this as the stock that has been split rises in price over time, producing a multiplying effect for the owner. Companies also buyback stock from time to time if they think it is priced too low. That also pumps up the price for the remaining stockholders.
Good luck to you, it sounds like an interesting project ! You may have a terrific Christmas present in there !
