Big Price for old stumps.

Old walnut stumps are on boom throughout Tennessee. Stumps that have remained unnoticed for years and were regarded as worthless are now eagerly sought after at prices that seem almost fabulous. An Indiana concern has had men travelling over the country buying every old walnut stump that could be found. At first the prices paid were small, but as the eyes of the stick timber folks began to open the prices went higher and higher until now they are out of sight and the funny part of it is that the ug- Her, knottier and more unsightly the stumpt the more money it will bring. The stunP of a walnut tree that was cut down several years ago brought more than the whole of the tree. It is stated that the stumps are made into veneering material and used in the manufacture of high-grade furniture.
