Hallack and Howard Lumber Company.

Hallack Brothers Lumber Company was established in 1868 by Erastus F. and Charles Hallack. In 1877 they were joined by two other brothers, Joseph H. and Charles Howard, and the name changed to Hallack and Howard Lumber Company. Erastus F. Hallack retired from the partnership in 1879 and established his own business under the name E.F. Hallack Lumber and Manufacturing Company. This continued until 1891 when it consolidated and became the Hallack-Sayre-Newton Lumber Company. Hallack and Howard Lumber Company existed until 1960 when it was purchased by Boise-Cascade.
