THEMAFirmendarstellung
TEXTOf the many commercial industries of New York few can compare in importance with the lumber trade. From small beginnings it has, within the last few years, grown until it has reached vast proportions, and this city is now one of the principal markets in the country for the sale of all kinds of lumber and logs. A well known and popular wholesale lumber broker engaged in this trade is Mr. C. G. Horton. Nos. 4 and 6 West 14th Street, who established this enterprise in 1880, which, since its inception at that date has always enjoyed a liberal and substantial patronage. He sells to the lumber trade only, and solicits orders from reliable parties. Long experience and personal acquaintance with all the dealers in the city and vicinity enables him to readily dispose of stock, knowing well the quantity, quality and grades required by each individual firm for their especial line of trade. Manufacturers who place their business in Mr. Horton's hands will not only save the salary of a travelling salesman, but secure the services of a permanent representative in this market who will make no bad accounts and allow no stock to remain on docks or in storage until the profit is all eaten up by extra expense. Quick sales and prompt returns are absolutely necessary for the success of the commission merchant, and these have always been the attributes of the house under notice. "Horton's Annual." a neat pamphlet containing rules for the inspection of hard-wood lumber for the New-York market, suggestions to shippers and hints to manufacturers, is sent on application, and will be found of value to those connected with the trade. Mr. Horton, who was formerly in business in Cleveland, is a native of Ohio, and has made hosts of friends in consequence of his kind and courteous manners and strict integrity. In conclusion, we may say that the facilities and advantages offered by this house are such as to afford the trade inducement in prices and guaranteed goods difficult to procure elsewhere.
