Millions of Feet of New Logs
Vrrneh TIoOse


The st. Croix Dam company turned
loose a great number Of new logs which
had been held in boom above the dam,
and which were sluiced, or allowed to
pass through the gate, all day Saturday
and Sunday. But for this the st. Croix
Boom company here would have been
compelled, by reason of lack OF logs.
to shut down operations to-day or to-
morrow. By last night about 100000
feet of these logs came into the Still
water boom, and they are still running
heavily in the river above, and coming
OH to increase the already large amount
now brought in. The gate at the
great dam has not been closed
at all yet, for the reason that the neces-
slty for closing it has not yet arrived.
There is still enough water so that logs
can come in through the tlowage and
find exit at the dam. When low water
requires, the gate will be lowered I'M
til the requisite head is secured to bring
in a rear or clean off the bars below.
Then it will be raised again for few
DAYS to give the Saltwater boom sutfi
cent water for working purposes, the
closing and opening thereafter being
regulated SO as to alternately bring in
the logs and supply water for opera
tons at the boom. Up to last Saturday
the seasons output at the boom had
reached nearly 80, 900, 900 feet.
