HOLMES filling BIG
DELIVERY in LUMBER

Mr.. F. Burke, representing the
Southern Saw Mill &c has been in
Holmes county for over a week, look
ing after lumber interest, and is in
specting a part of the big deal made
with John H. Roach, cutter, amounting
to $50, 900 feet. This lumber, largely,
is exported, brisk market at all times
being on in domestic circles.
We understand that good timper is
getting scarce in this territory, but
Mr.. Roach is'not going to fall down
on this order he isn't built that way,
and when his wagon line can't make
the road, he gets in touch with repre-
sentatives elsewhere and brings the Y.
and NJ. V. into play.
These people are circulating good
deal of the coin in this territory, hav-
ing been turning logs into lumber for
several years Mr. Burke is most
pleasant gentleman, and is buying
all the timber on the market, and even
three years ahead in some instances.
And if there is saw mill with a price
that is investigated, and if in reach
bought.
This Southern Sawmill Co. is not in
the combine and is paying good round
dollars for the merchantable article,
their inspectors are fair, and if all of
them class with Mr. Burke, any fair
man will have no trouble in filling
an order more satisfactorily.

The Nogales Times says the Sonora orange season has opened with the ex- port of four cars destined for Canada. Saturday three more cars entered No gales in bond for the same destina- tion.
 In the past from one hundred to three hundred cars of Sonora oranges have been shipped out of our neigh boring state each season to United States and Canadian consumers, and this crop forms quite an item in Mex ican exports.
 The Sonora crop this year is early on account of the small amount of the small amount of rainfall in the orange-growing section, but the crop promises to exceed that of former years owing to a large area of new orchards just coming into bearing. The fruit is somewhat small and green yet, but is quite palatable.
 From now on citrous fruits will comprise 8 fair proportion of bonded goods passing through this port.
