Sauntry & Co. crews from the camps
about White Birch and Gordon, marks
the practical suspension of all logging
in the pineries for the season of 1SS9-90.

over $50 100000 feet. The next move
Will be the drives, for which, it is said
at the Office of the st. CroiX Dam and
Boom company, the big dam at Nevers
will be ready in time.
