 merchandise is estimated at .?.50,000. The fire started on the second

A Correction 

 The last issue of Hardwood IIecord contained, under Chicago news, a 

 statement based on some misinformation to the effect that the William- 

 son-Kuny Mill & Lumber Company, Mound City, HI., had sold out to 

 P. T. Langan. Cairo, 111. This statement as received at this office specified 

 that development exactly, but it was an error, as the Williamson-Kuny 

 Mill & Lumber Company has simply sold out its retail lumber stock 

 such as sash, doors, blinds and builders' hardware, which is maintained 

 at Cairo, 111., and which represented only five per cent of the total 

 assets of the company. The sale had nothing to do with the sawmill 

 business, wholesale lumber business, veneer busftiess or dimension stock 

 business, all of which have grown to such an extent that the company 

 has decided to give Its whole time and attention to that end, and go out 

 of the retail lumber business altogether. The latter has been one of 

 the branches for the last ten years. 



Large Timber Tract Sold 



It is announced that the Vredenburgh Sawmill Company of Vreden- 

 burgh, Ala., has purchased of P. B. Ray of Salco, .\la., 16,000 acres of 

 timber land in Monroe county, that state. The consideration is not 

 stated. The land, which is known as the Hunter-Benn tract, Is heavily 

 timbered, and it is the intention of the sawmill company to cut all 

 timber and afterward sell the land in small tracts. The land is said 

 to be suitable for agricultural purposes. 



The timber from the land will be hauled to the mill at Vredenburgh 

 over the tracks of the new Gulf, Florida & Alabama railroad, which 

 is building through the tract at the present time. The tract of land is 

 about forty miles from Vredenburgh and in two months the railroad 

 will reach Vredenburgh.
