| Quoted by Mr.. Boynton for the last
| four years at the same Place Just be-
yond the Woodbridge Creek bridge.
The extensions are in liGe with the
progressive methods used by MI.
| Boynton in the past and they will
surely tend to render this cCucel a
prominent factor in the lumber bust

In the new concern, the BoYnton-
Chalmers Company. Mr.. Boynton is
associated with j. Ernest Chalmers,
formerly of Bangor. Me, where he
was actively engaged for six years in
the wholesale and retail lumber
trade. During the past year Mr..
Chalmers has been associated with
Mr.. Boynton in this business and has
been instrumental in pushing it
ahead. George Moschel, the third
member of the firm, has during the
last four years demonstrated his
abilities as a yard manager, having
been employed by Mr.. Boynton.
The yards and buildings of the
company are admirably located on
the line of the Central railroad and
with a spur running through the
Yards. The future looks bright for
the company, as there are eXper-
fenced, live men at its head and the

tence.
The facilities are being increased
on a large scale and the establish
ment is undergoing a metamorphosis
from which it will emerge as com
pletely equipped as any place of the
kind in this section of the country.
The stock is immense and en-
braces all kinds and classes of lum-
Der and millWork. New sheds are
to be erected and the location of
some of the present buildings chang
ed. The property now leased by the
company has an area OF six acres.
The concern has 4 lease for a long
term upon a t~Welve-acre tract near
the present properly. The twelve
acre tract is north of Woodbridge
Creek and east of the trolley tracks
from the creek bridge to Boynton
Beach and it will be ultimately occu-
pied by the company.
A large planning mill has recently
been added TO the equipment and
contains the most. modern machinery
in that line. The SaWGust is forced
through pipes TO a small house a few
feet away, from which it is loaded
into wagons and sold for use in brick
manufacture. A market has been
found for shaving also, they being
used in packing brick in loading.
Another illustration Of attention to
detail is the rollers in the lumber
sheds which greatly facilitate the
handling of stock. Each kind of
material and millwork is stored in a
distinctive department, on a compre-
hensive scale. The concern will,
from now on, manufacture all lines
of mill products, expanding their
operations as the demand shows
growth.
Mr.. Boynton studied architecture
al Columbia University and is an
able constructing engineer. A care
full system in checking and deliver
ing orders is maintained by the on
corn which is daily handling large
orders for factory and house trade
in this city, SeWaren, Woodbridge,
Railway and other places.
Orange is to be the distinguishing
color of the buildings. sheds. fences,
wagons and stationery of the COM
pany, of which Mr.. Boynton is presi-
dent; Mr.. Chalmers, treasurer, and
Mr.. Moschel, secretary.
