The LUMBER BUSINESS IN MAINE.-Lumbering, it
Is believed, will not be prosecuted extensively in
MAINE tne coming winter as in previous years, ow-
ing 10 the high rate of "stumpage" charged by the
proprletors OF timber lands. Stumpage is the tax
charged TO operators upon the amount of timber
cut, and In Maine is regulated by the market price
OF lumber at ST. John. n. 3. 1t is now So per
ton for timber, and So to Sc per NJ. for logs! For
some years 1t has been slowly advancing, until it
has become so high as to render numbering a more
hazardous and less profitable business than ever.
