There has neyer been a great drive in this company to become one of the biggest; just one of the best.

Our company was organized bV J. H. Holmes after pioneering in 1888 as a lumber dealer in Phoenix. 15 years later ( 1903) he started a Redwood sawmill at Eureka. That was the beginning of Holmes Eureka. He knew the problems of lumber merchants, from the actual experience of being one. It became thefoundation of our working relationship with dealers. Every H-E dealer knowsthat he can depend on us for top values in every grade and for helpful services, always.
