One of the notable features of the veneer dis-
trict the past week was the sale of half a mil-
lion feet of veneering by one dealer to one cus-
tomer for immediate delivery. The fortunate
deal was made by Garrett Gordon, of 118 Avenue
D, to the Richardson Piano Case Co., of Leomin-
ster, Mass. A little over four hundred thousand
feet of the lot was choice figured Mexican ma-
hogany, of which only ten thousand feet was
less than eighteen inches wide. The balance was
a carload of very choice walnut, remarkable for
its length and width, as well as for the figure.
Sales of this size are rare, even among the largest
houses, and Mr. Gordon deserves to be compli-
mented upon his good fortune.

NEW YORK
The quiet season has hit the veneer trade, and
the dealers have settled down for the summer
calm. There have been some good sales the past
week, and some of the dealers will be busy for
some time to come shipping orders already on
hand, but the trade is only buying what they
need for immediate use. The reports from sales-
men on the road indicate that there will be an
excellent fall trade, and the dealers will continue
to cut choice woods with that time in view.
Several of the large case makers have been buy-
ing heavily of late, with the idea of having a
good supply of cases ready for the fall.

Louis G. Jones, the dealer in veneers at 10th
street and Avenue D, has secured an unusually
fine African mahogany crotch, which dressed
measures 11 feet in length by 24 inches in diam-
eter, squared. It promises to cut to excellent
advantage and show very rich markings. J. R.
Hundley, who is on the road for him in the
Middle West, has been picking up some good
orders, and for a maiden trip has made an ex-
cellent record.

the week from a very successful trip through
the Middle West. He started out simply to call
on the firm's patrons, but, of course, he could noJ
refuse to book the many orders that came his
way. The factory at 134th street and Brook ave-
nue is kept pushed to its capacity to fill orders,
and Albert Staib told The Review that they had
orders enough ahead to keep them busy during
the entire summer.

old, so as to meet the increasing demand for their
actions.
