E. Stearns and his friend ? and ssociate Mr. Grey, Columbus had a model lumber plant. The only re mains of which is now a large boil er on the hard surfaced reod just outside of Columbus toward Tryon This was back in early 1900^ For twenty odd years rough lumber has been hauled through Coulmbus on to Tryon ann Landrum to be dress ed and prepared for the market. Hitherto when finished lumber was needed in Columbus we had to go ! to Tryon or Landrum and bring back this same rough lumber in its finished state. Recently, however, a small group of men headed by H. H. Carson nd J. W. Jack, both of whom are experienced lumber men, have decided to organize the Citi zens Lumber Co. here in Columbus. For several weeks Mr. Jack and his ; crew have been working on the grounds near the Polk County Gin plan;, erecting the buildings etc., and at present they are busy in_ stalling the planes the resaw, the cut' off saws and motors. The Com pany will be ready to turn out fini shed lumber within the next few days. They have already heen buying rough dumber from saw mills located within ten miles of Columbus. The Citizens Lumlber Co. will be incorporated with a paid in capital of about ten thousand dollars. The hard surfaced road leading from Col- 1 umbus to the rail road makes it possible to handle large orders, as a car can be loaded in less than a day's time. About, sixty of the Company stock holders were present, most of whom were farmers. All seemed well pleased with the showing made for the first year an(i especially pleased with their dividend checks After the Sec. and Treas., H. H. Carson, mdae his report Fred W. Blanton, pres. of the company, made a talk covering the year's opera tions in which he emphasised the fact that this organization of far_ mers should be managed in a busL ness like manner and that instead of paying out every dollar earned on the farm of dividends, as some think should be done, that it was necessary to set up reserves and to change off a reasonable amount each yea r for depreciation on machinery and buildings^ Col. J. R. Sams, County Farm Agent, made an enthusiastic talk on several sub objects and incidentally let it be known that although he is seventy. five years old his first bale of , cot ton was ginned at the new Polk County Gin. Mr. W. H. Stearns of Tryon spoke on the subject of roads and stressed the importance of good roads in connection with far mers getting their cotton to the gin and their other crops to market. The stockholders reelected the fol lowing officers for the coming year I J. T. Waldrop. O.L. Feagajo, B. T. j Thompson, W. B. Edwards, Fred. L. Blanton, H. H. Carson and J. M. j McGuinn. After the stockholders adjourned the directors held a brief jpeeting and reelected the follow ing officers for the coming: year Fred \V. Blanton, president; J. T. Waldrop, Vice President; and H. H. Carson, Secretary and Treasurer. Miss Vadah McMurry was a cor dial hostess to the Outlook Club last Wednesday afternoon. Roll call was responded to with interest ing current events.
