bodies are paid good salaries, enabling
them to devote their entire attention to
taries of the commercial and industrial
the work. Mr.. Weems has never asked
the Board of Trade to pay him a salary,
but there is no disputing the fact that
It would be a wise expenditure to pro-
vide him with a fund to be used in ad-
vertising the resources and advantages
Of the city.
In fact, the Board of Trade ought to
have an Office in the business section of
the city, where it would be accessible
to visitors and there ought to be a man
on hand all the time to furnish informa-
ton, facts and figures about the city
and the adjacent territory. The eX-
pense prorated among the business mon
and property owners of the city would
be comparatively small and the results
would be surprisingly great.
The Furniture Factory.
The Wecms-Lockwood Furniture Com
pany is a fitting example of the advant-
ages of Greenwood as a location for fac
tories that use any considerable quanti-
ty of hardwood timber. Mr.. Wecms in
forms the writer that he has recently
purchased several million feet of the
finest sort of hardwood lumber in the
immediate vicinity of Greenwood, much
of which can be delivered at the factory
direct from the wagons, On all of it the
cost will be much less than material of
similar grade could be obtained in any
of the Northern and Eastern States.
Timber Supply.
There are thousands of acres Of fine
hardwood timber in the immediate vicin-
ity Of Greenwood in which the wood
mans axe has not yet penetrated. This
is particularly true of gum, which has
heretofore been regarded as worthless
for commercial purposes. There is also
an abundance of fine oak, ash and pop
lar. Hickory can also be found in al
most incxhaustable quantities.
Gum Furniture.
THE COMMONWEALTH man was recently
shown a suit of furniture made from
what is known as red gum, an abund-
ance of which can be found in all Sec
lions of the Delta. In appearance, the
furniture had all of the beauty Of wal
nut, together with a polish that almost
cqualled mahogany. The factory in
Greenwood is making a great deal of
gum furniture and it is finding a ready
sale at good prices.
