Lumbering; Forests and forestry; Forest products; Wood-pulp industry; Wood-using industries. 46 CANADA LUMBERMAN AND WOODWORKER September 15, 1920 Specialist in Hardwood Lumber. J. A. R. Racicot, Sherbrooke, Que. J. A. R. Racicot is a member of Boisse & Racicot, wholesale lumber dealers, Sherbrooke, Que., which firm was organized about a year ago. They have a sawmill at Bonally Lake, P. Q., and have recently moved into new offices in the Olivier Building, King and Wellington Streets, Sherbrooke. Boisse & Racicot specialize in hardwoods, in logs or sawn lum- ber, and deal in pine, spruce, hem- lock, beech, birch, maple, ash, elm, basswood, as well as ties, posts, shingles, lath, etc. The senior partner of the firm, II Boisse, resides at North Stukeley, and has been operating a saw mill at Lake Bonally for twenty years. He has a wide insight into the manufacture of lumber with which he is thoroughly familiar. Mr. Racicot was formerly man- ager of the Elmitt Lumber Co., Limited, and also managed the business of A. Trudeau of Sher brooke, wholesale lumber dealer, and six years ago Mr. Trudeau presented him with a half interest in the business in appreciation of his faithful service and valued work. The year following Mr. Racicot, owing to ill-health, had to discontinue business for three or four years, and it was not until last fall that he joined Mr. Boisse to operate mills and conduct a wholesale lumber business. The firm report that trade with them has been steadily increasing and it is their intention to erect another mill during ^the coming season. A large portion of their trade is in Ontario and the U. S. A. They consider that they are fortunate in having their head office in Sherbrooke, which is the centre of the best hardwood district in the Province of Quebec.
