Trimble a barn b*ing moved on to lot now occupied by is'o. 1115 Farnam Street. Here comes Omaha’s first exclusive furniture store, it was a barn, moved from Florence CT WAS Mr. Charles H. Dewey and his partner. Mr. J. Trimble, who moved that barn from the Mormon Settlement at Florence and started the first furni ture store in the state of Nebraska. It was also the first attempt at specialization, a* far as furniture was concerned, in this territory. It w as Dewey who made the first careful survey of what Omaha and Nebraska settlers needed to make their homes better, adding to it all he knew about furniture business. Coming from a family that had been making and selling furniture for half a cen tury, his judgment was of inestimable value in putting in a stock of merchandise that suited his customers — it was SPECIALTY STOKKKEKPINO. This storekeeping was carried on with another partner after Mr. Trimble dropped out—a Mr. E. L. Stone —and the firm did business for sev eral years under the name of Dewey & Stone, making many customers and friends. • • • • Omaha people were (piick to see the substantial advantages of buying furniture from a furniture store. • • • • It was ten years after tlie barn w as moved in from 1 ldrenes (and by this time a four-story building the first store of its kind in the state, housed the Dewey & Stone business that rug sp ialists came to Omaha and started in business as Orchard t Bean They were to do for the rug business what Dewey A. Stone had done for the furniture business. Thirty-one years ago Mr. C. M. Wilhelm joined Mr. Orchard and formed the Orchard & Wilhelm CaYpet Company. Times were getting better—changing. This was the year Eighteen Hundred and Ninety-three. Omaha men bad the vision and were working to develop a western market and build a metropolis. In that year a Commercial Club was formed, and from that day to this unceasing efforts have continued to stimulate the growth and prosperity of Omaha. • • • • The time came when Orchard & Wilhelm Company dropped the word Carpet from the firm’s name because furniture and draperies were now carried in goodly variety. The purchase of the Dewey & Stone furniture stoek took place shortly after tlm changing of the n&mc. and Orchard & Wilhelm Company became firmly established as the complete home furnishing specialists they are today knowu to be—always specialists—always tlie authority in this territory on K n e furnishing problems. * * • • Immediate profits frequently have to be forgotten in ordi r to live up to the ideals of specialists, bn' in the end it pays. The woman who wishes to “KNOW HOW” can always get unstinted attention and correct information in our store, regardless of the amount of her purchase—regardless of where she makes that purchase—because eventually sh* finds it profitable to make it here.
