this acrOsS-Statc business that he is
now taking care of. The first car
load, shipped last Monday, was COM
posed Of 1Xl2, lXli and lXl6 boards,
i6 and 20 feet long. and heavier stun,
3XS to 3Xl4, 4XS TO AKA. in lengths
Of &c and 20 feet. The shipment
made most attractive pile Of oak
lumber. the grain Of which showed
beautifully, even though the lumber
was only rough sawed. 1t gave every
evidence Of possessing the highest
polishing possibilities. 1t seems that
it is pity that there is no local
means OF manufacturing this grade of
hardwood lumber into furniture, etc.
One requirement Of the orders placed
with Mr.. Shockley IS that two pieces
of hardwood timber measuring 14X14
IHShSS, OD lSeI lOllS, Shhll bS Slllppcu

selected the trees from which these
huge timbers will be taken. He is
getting out these orders from the
splendid trees that crown the famous
Tamassee Knob, where he has thou
sands upon thousands Of feet still in
the forests.
