Trade notes. The Medina Quarry Co., the largest operator in 

 the Medina district, was succeeded during 1904 by the Orleans 

 County Quarry Co. with offices at Albion. The former company 

 was organized in 1902 and took over a number of quarries with a 

 view of combining their operations. The quarries are located at 

 Albion, Medina, Eagle Harbor, Holley and Hulberton. Among 

 the products sold are building stone, flagstone, curbstone and 

 paving blocks. 



There have been few changes of note in the bluestone trade. 

 With some exceptions the quarrying is done by small concerns 

 employing but few men and their operations are more or less of 

 transitory character. Nearly all of the product from the Hudson 

 river and the Delaware river regions is handled by dealers who also 

 own or lease much of the land on which the quarries are located. 



The principal dealers along the Hudson river who market most 

 of the product from Ulster and Greene counties are the following:
