-Chas. L. Culton and w. A. Shelley
have become interested in quite an ex-
tensive lumber deal in Louisiana, that
will require the business supervision OF
one or both these gentlemen for some
time to come. They have purchased a
cypress brake near Bonita, in More
house parish, located on the Iron Noun
tain Ry in northeastern Louisiana, that
contains over ten million feet of cypress
besides large quantities of oak and gum
all marketable timber. "A new mill with
a capacity of 4OM daily is already in
stalled on the property and everything
and shipping of lumber. The brake is
surrounded by five foot levy to main
tain stage of water sufficient to float
the logs to the mill at a slight cost. As
cypress and oak bring the highest price
of any of the southern lumber, these
gentlemen think they have secured a
good business proposition. 1t is quite
probable that both the Culton and Shell
ley families will spend the winter in the
South.
