GREEN BAY LUMBER CO.

Floral Divider Bar

LUMBER AND BUILDING MATERIAL.--This company has been in the business in Audubon over ten years, and has built up an exceedingly heavy trade. A full line of lumber and building material is carried, a stock amounting to over $10,000, and the company sells as cheap as the cheapest. The business is managed by F. H. Adams, a young energetic man of shrewd business qualifications and a gentleman popular with the people of the city and the country. To his management much is due the success which has greeted the company during his residence in Audubon, which covers a period of about four years. Mr. Adams is assisted by Samuel Oelrich. The Green Bay Lumber Company has numerous yards throughout the state, but Audubon is one of their best points.
