was made, on Friday of the consolidation of tho Carter Lumber Company and tho Continental Lumber aud Tie Company, two ot th.9 largest lumber concerns la the yellow plue timber belt. Mr. J. P. Carter Is president and owner of the Carter Lumber Company, and Mr.

L. Davidson Is president and owner of the Continental Lumber and Tie Company. Both firms ure rich corporations. The Carter Lumber Company lias a capitalization of H0.090, and possesses jullls and Umber worth soveral times that amount The Continental Lumber and Tie Company Is Incorporated for KO.OOO, but practically unlimited financial resources. Up to tula time the Carter Lumber vomptuiy has operated large milling plums at Mayo 'iwd Baber, and Ita own ImlivMua! solos department In Hourton.

Tha Continental Lumber and I'le company hau owned no milling Interests for several years, but IB one ot the most extensive and powerful wholesale concerns In the entire South, handling the output of several of tho largest sawmills In this territory, exclusively. The deal that has boen made Is a consolidation of the business interests of- two firms, Mr. Davidson entering Carter Lumber Company as vlcepres- dent and director and buying a large block of stock, and Mr. Carter doing the same thing In the Continental Lumber and Tie Thus their Interests become mutual. In the future sales offices will be combined.

The Carter Lumber Company will be the milling organization, and Its milling output will be marketed through the sales of (Ices-, of the Continental Lumber and Tie Company. The Continental Lumber and Tie.Com- pany thus becomes a much heavier sales concern than ever before. It adds to Its sources'of supply tho two splendid mills at the Carter Lumber, Company. The Mayo plant'Is one of the most perfectly equipped and 'Complete mills of Its size In the Southwest, being equipped with a heavy band mill, and a large gang. Baber is a fine circular plant.

Both mills are modern In every way, with soda dipping tanks, steam dry kllne, modern planers and every other supplementary necessity of the modern milling Institution, These mills have great virgin forests behind them and will be operated for a great many years to come. Mayo is on the line of the Houston East West Texas, and Baber is on'the Dallas branch of the Texas New Orleans. Tho mills controlled a selling way by the Continental Lumber and Tie Company now have an production: ot approximately feel a month. These mills produce both long and short leaf stock and are located In both Texas and Louisiana, and on such a variety of railroad lines as to give the llrm the greatest possible facility for shipping In every direction, or for export to foreign countries. This aggregate production makes the Continental one of the very largest In the yellow pine In order, to handle this additional output the Continental Lumber and Tie Com- any has taken over the sale's forces of he Carter Lumber Company and-added them to its own forces.
