=-< CINCINNATI y 



The Appalachia Lumber Company, formerly of Columbus, has establishect 

 a yard in the St. Bernard district now so popular with lumbermen for yard- 

 ing. It will have about two acres and will not yard stock at Appalachia. 

 Va.. any longer than necessary, shipping stocic as soon as in condition to 

 the Cincinnati yard, which will be the distributing point. This makes to 

 date about ten companies who have recently recognized in Cincinnati both 

 market conditions and distributing facilities second to none in the country 

 and moved or established big branches here within the last year. Secretary- 

 Treasurer Cortelyou recently said : "We had our offices at Columbus, but 

 found it best to move into this market. There are more visitors seeking- 

 hardwoods in Cincinnati than elsewhere and naturally it will be easier to 

 distribute lumber from this section. Then, too, there will be a shorter 

 haul, which will make a considerable saving." 



The officers of the Lumbermen's Club are to be congratulated over the- 

 success of the convention of the Ohio Retail Lumber Dealers* Association

 a success in every way and the usual hospitality of the club was not lack- 

 ing. The visitors were royally entertained and were pleased at the very 

 large attendance, more than six hundred having registered. 



=■< TOLEDO y 



The Toledo hardwood field has an unique record in having, perhaps, one- 

 of the very few women managers of a hardwood business. Miss Elizabeth 

 Keasey has filled the office of manager of the Keasey Pulley Company for 

 the past several weeks and she has found the work so much to her 

 liking that she will continue in her chosen field. The death of the- 

 late Theron D. Keasey, president of the company and father of Miss 

 Iveasey, brought her to the acceptance of this office. The Keasey Pul- 

 ley Company is one of Toledo's oldest and best-known lumber con- 

 cerns. With the death of Mr. Keasey in early January the trade lost 

 one of its ablest and most respected members. He was a tireless worker, 

 and when the Keasey Pulley Company finally did abandon business 

 after twenty-five years of industry, he worked until he had effected a 

 complete re-organization. Then work at the plant was renewed. This: 

 was in March of last year. Up to date the company has been successful 

 in renewing the old contracts and has gone after the new business with 

 a determination that has opened the way for an abundance of new business. 

 The plant employes nearly twenty men. The death of Mr. Keasey fol- 

 lowed a three weeks illness. He was buried at his old home town. South 

 Bend, Ind. He was sixty-seven years old. Miss Keasey had been asso- 

 ciated with her father in the office for some time and knows the business. 



The Skinner Bending Company's iiusiness is now in the charge of these- 

 officers, who were recently elected : C. V. Skinner, president ; J. S. Dugan, 

 vice-president ; F. B. Anderson, secretary and treasurer. 



The Gotshall Manufacturing Company reports an excellent business in- 

 February, considering conditions.
