MAHOGANY CO.

''The Hawaiian Mahogany Com

mark made by o. ]. Barker, of the firm
of Barker Brothers, of Los Angeles,
the biggest furniture firm of the West,
when asked what he thought of the Ha-
waiian wood for The furniture trade,
and what PROSPECTS the company had.
''The Hawaiian Mahogany Company
has the goods. all right, but they want
to get busy. There are furniture max
ers in Chicago and Grand Rapids wait
ing for that material. There are piano
makers all over the Union who will
want lots of it. Quarter-crt oak is
bringing S92 a thousand. and the ex-
perts figure that there are only thirty
years supply in sight. African ma
hogany brings 500, and the dealers are
glad TO pay that for it to get it. A
Seattle firm has just made contract
with mahogany men in the Philippines
at 500, and glad to do it. The Ha-
waiian company has the goods to sell,
just the kind the eabinetmakers are
securing the earth after.
''Now they want to get in modern

market. They ought to get some ex-
perts to point out where they are

Mr.. Barker is enthusiastic in his
praise OF the quality of the cabinet ma
terial being taken out by the koa lum-
berers OF Hawaii. He is an expert in
woods. and from what he has to saw
regarding his trip to Hawaii it is prob
able that he has closed a contract for
supply of koa. He would not con
firm this, however. referring the inter
viewer to the company managers.
There is one kick NJ. Barker has
coming. and it is a big one. Now that
he has finished his business here. he
