 THE 



TIMBER TRADES JOURNAL 



AND SAW MILL ADVERTISER. 



An independent newspaper for Foreign^ Coloniah 

 and English Timber Mercliants, and the IVIahogany 

 and Hardwood Trades. 



This Journal has achieved a high position amongst class 

 papers, and is read wherever timber is bought or sold the 

 world over. 



Its Trade Reports, from all the principal centres of the 

 trade at home, are compiled by specially-appointed resident 

 correspondents, whose truthful and accurate reports present 

 each week a reflex of the present state and future outlook of 

 the trade. 



The Foreign Correspondence from the timber-producing 

 countries is greatly appreciated, and, by keeping buyers on 

 this side well posted as to the movements of the supply 

 markets and the intentions of shippers, trade is steadied, and 

 the fluctuations in prices become less sudden and dangerous. 

 A leadinsj feature of The Journal is its reports on the Public 

 Auction Sales in London, and at the out-ports ; and the price 

 and buyer's n:ime is recorded of every lot which is sold. 

 Articles on the course of trade, and all topics of the day 

 connected directly or indirectly with the Timber Trade, are 

 written by practical writers. Extracts from the London 

 Gazette of all Bankruptcies, etc., and Reports of Meetings of 

 Creditors, with Lists of Creditors and amounts due, are given 

 of the largest failures. A brief summary is given of the cargo 

 of every timber-laden ship arriving in each port of the United 

 Kingdom, with the port ot shipment and consignee. 



Besides the above leading features, the Timber Trades 

 Journal contains all the trade information which might be 

 expected of a high-class trade paper, and is always to the fore 

 in advocating and upholding the interests of the Timber 

 Trade in every way possible.
