Till' KnliTpris.. Liiniliii' i ■nniii.uiv i.- ili.- l.-m-si .'iililiii.iii to tin- Clmlunatl 

 lumber colony, Incorporation papers belUK taken out last week. Tbe 

 concern will operate on a capital stock of $40,000. Tbe larKC lumber 

 yards of the old Knterprlsu Lumber CompaLy on Shllllto street, which 

 went Into the Imnds of a receiver some time ago. will be utilized by the 

 new concern. A general wholesale and retail business will be carrbil on, 

 hardwoods being specialized. The Shllllto str*'et yards were purchased 

 from tli.? receiver ny W. II. and <;. S. Stewart for SUT.OOd. The lncor|io- 

 rators ot the new Knterprlse Lumber Company arc H. J. Ctter, C. J. 

 Hunt, Trnuk Woodward. D. A. Itehbach and A. M. ItudlD, all proniincDt 

 lumliermen in this section. W. II. and G. S. Stewart will lie managers 

 of the new company. 



Lumbermen heri- were advised last week that Dr. C. E. Thome, director 

 ot the Ohio Agricultural Experiment Station, bad decided upon the 

 purchase of 2o0 acres of bill land in the western part of Athens county, 

 for forestry purposes. Attorney General Turner last week approviij title 

 to the land. At the last meeting of tbe legislature a bill was |ias«ed 

 appropriating funds for the purchase of several tracts of land for forestry 

 liurpo.ses. 



When I he demurrer of the defendant In tbe case of the Baltimore It 

 Ohio Southwestern Itailroad Company against W. H. Settle & Co.. of 

 Clucinnati, came for hearing in United States district court here last 

 week, application was niade and granted for a continuance until Saturday, 

 March l.S. Tbe case is another outgrowth ot the sensnlionai light 

 i.'iauguratcd a year ago by the ."ettle company against the Haltlmore & 

 Oblo Southwestern, alleging discriminatory rates on lumber between 

 Mudlsonvillc, where their plant Is located, and Oakley, Norwood and 

 Cincinnati proper. 



Cincinnati lumber exporters who have been keeping close touch upon 

 the situation were much impressed with advices they have received from 

 Roger E. Simmons, of the United States Forestry ISurenu, who returned 

 a few *lays ago fr.im a two years' tour of South and Central America 

 Kathering data on the lumber situation In that country. In tbe opinion 

 of Mr. Simmons, American lumber Interests have an excellent opportunity 

 for the development of a large and ever growing trade In South and 

 Central America. In all the leading timber countries south ot Mexico, 

 Mr. Simmons said he found that timber fitted for luinix-r was badly 

 scattered and bard to reach. He advises that American lumber for 

 building purposes Is in great demand In the South American countries 

 and a trade could be developed quite easily by American mills which 

 would prove very profitable. 



Two recent Kentucky lumber lncor|)orallons ot interest to the Cincinnati 

 district are the Russell Lumber & Supply Company, at Ashland, Ky., 

 composed ot Thomas O. DeMaro, Clyde K. Turley and U. D. Davis, with 

 capital stock of $30,000 and The Reliable Lumber Company, at Crittenden, 

 Ky., capital of $3,000, incorporated by S. Wallace Smith. Edwin Beavcrly, 

 M. E. Smith and M. J. Ely. 



Charltabl-; bequests were conspicuous in the will left by Simon Wlld- 

 berg. late bead of the Wlldberg Box Company, a generous lumber consumer 

 in Cincinnati. The Hebrew Union College, Unlteil Jewish Ciiarltles, 

 Home for Jewish Aged and Infirm. Jewish Hospital and the Jcwisb 

 Orphan Asylum, at Cleveland, all were given a good sum. Tbe Income 

 ot tbe estate was left to his widow for life, with tbe balance of the 

 estate to he divided equally among bis four sons and granddaughters.
