II. II. PINKSTON
Planning Mills. Dealer in Lumber.

The planning mills owned and ope-
rated by R. r. Pinkston, and which he
was instrumental in establishing in
1882. have during their entire career
maintained for contractors, property
7|ners and the public generally the
pronounced advantages of convenience
and fair prices to secure their needs
for such materials as are required in
the structural lines, such as ceiling
flooring, moulding, stairwork and
round and square work generally. 1t
was the first mill of it's. kind to be
operated in Henderson and the only
one to-day in the community. 1t there
fore can be seen that steady and an
increasing patronage is assured in fu-
ture months and years for Henderson
itself is developing rapidly, likewise
the surrounding country, which means
constant activity in the building lines
and demand for the services of the
planning mill. The Pinkston planning
mill is in operation daily and is
equipped with the required machinery
and appliances to turn out the most
satisfactory work. It is conveniently
situated along the tracks of the Sea-
board and Southern railroads, SO that
the expense of hauling carload ship
ments of stocks of lumber are re-
duced to the minimum. A nice bust
ness has always been done in supply
ing popular needs for rough and
dressed lumber, orders being received
from patrons living in Henderson and
the surrounding country constantly.
r. r. Pinkston, the owner and one of
the founders of this enterprise, is a
native of Wadesboro, n c., where he
lived until he reached the age of six
teen, when he became apprenticed to
the carpenter trade and whilst serving
his time, period of five years, he re-
sided at Yorkville and Charlotte, N. c.,
Nashville, Tenn, and several points I'm

self as a mechanic and got his tools"
subsequently he came back to Raleigh
where he married. After his mar
rage, he followed his trade at Wilson's
Mill and at Carey for several years.
finally settling down in Raleigh, where
he became a member of the firm of
Ellington, Register &Co.. which bust

1882 as senior member of the firm Of

installing a plant for a planning mill

SEABOARD FEED & PRODUCE CO.
CIV. Singleton, General Manager.

1t has been remarked elsewhere in
this issue that Henderson has shown
marked progress within recent years
in the wholesale lines, and it can here
be added with truth that the inception
and development of the Seaboard Feed
& Produce Co. has been a cOntribut-
ing factor to the splendid results
achieved. This concern began bus
mess as a new enterprise in Septem-
Der, 1906, for the purpose of supply
ing the trade with feed of all kinds
from the hay and grain fields of the
West and fruits and produce from the
leading distributing markets. S.ch
was the encouragement experienced in
the early days of the business that It
was determined to install plant tCr
the grinding of corn meal, and during
the following February the popular
Seaboard Meal was placed on the mar
ket-a production which, because oof
its excellence has met with constant
lily increasing demand, wherever and
whenever introduced. This plant has
/ a capacity of one thousand bushels of
meal daily, being shipped all through
North Carolina and portions of South
! larolina. The Seaboard Feed & Pro-
luce Co. are headquarters for hay,
grain, mill feed; also fruits, especially
.ppleS, oranges and bananas and such
Vegetables as cabbage, potatoes and
,nions. The business is conducted on
a scale of magnitude that secures bed
'ock prices at the original sources
f supply, for car load purchases are
he rule, many car loads of one single
commodity being purchased at one
line when market conditions justify
UGH a policy. ALI throughout North
arolina the Seaboard Feed & Produce
o. have, during a comparative brief
ut successful career, built up splen-
id patronage, composed of leading
lerchants in the retail lines, and ev-
~ day brings in the names of new
satrons, who seek the excellent advan-
ages this concern Offers. The officers
f the concern are H. T. Morris, presi-
tent; c. V. Singleton, vice-president
md general manager; e. B. Taylor,
secretary, and J. H. Brodie, treasurer.
All are among Henderson's leading
citizens and in this instance they are
to be especially congratulated for
founding and building up to its pres
ent splendid proportions an enterprise
which is regarded by the most alert
among the retail trade of the country
a money saving, reliable and excellent
source of supply for all their require
ments in feed, fruits and produce.

JOHN b. WATKINS

In Henderson the market for build

said to be of the most satisfactory
character as compared with towns all
over the country similarly situated
sare prices by carload purchases from
the original sources of supply; carry
stocks sufficiently large and complete
to guarantee prompt delivery on short
notice, and, If anything unusual is de-
sired, it can be secured at the lowest
possible cost to patrons. These OBJ

HOME TELEPHONE & TELEGRAPH
COMPANY

Henderson being the birthplace, the
home and the headquarters of the
Home Telephone and Telegraph Co.,
an organization whose growth and
development have greatly surpassed
the most sanguine expectations of its
promoters, it is but appropriate that
some mention of it's career be contain
ed in this edition for the all good and
sufficient reasons that it has been it
self an ever fruitful source of the great
progress that has characterized this
entire section of the country in4Aecent
years, and because. two, it is, and
ought to be, a source of pride to the
community in which it fourishes. The
Home Telephone & Telegraph Co., was
organized and began business in Hen
derson in the year 1895, starting oper-
atoms with total of fifty subscribers,
and a paid-up capital of only $4,000.
At this time there were practically
no telephones in this particular sec
ton and efforts were confined simply
to supplying and maintaining a local
service The promoters of the organ
ization being progressive in their
methods and policies, and opportuni-
ties for development Astounding in

made during its fourteen years career,
and which has been achieved through
an alert and able management and by
/ the adoption of the most improved

ment, may be arrived at when 1t Is
