down for the want of water, an order
came In for lot of | and IL inch
dressed plank to be used for shelving
and counters. and not being able to fill
the order. the gentleman had to send
to Vicksburg for it, and when the bill
was presented to him for $500 and
$4,000 per thousand, it came near tax
ing bis breath. He wrote down to find
out if there was not some mistake. and
he was informed that it was correct
and that they were not anxious to fill
the bill at that price. This is several
dollars more than the Providence Lum-
Der Co.. charges for the same quality
of lumber, and il seems to us that the
few kickers. who have been bowling
about "robbing prices" and running
down home enterprise should hold
their mouth after finding out what it
costs to order lumber away from home.
