The following is taken from the North
western Lumberman: 1.-THE problem Of
the Ontonagen river drive is becoming q
serious one. The main river Is praeti-
cally dry, and logs are lying on the bot
tom In the main channel. The creeks
and branches are in even worss condi-
tion. Practically no rain has fallen yet
r. E. Stephenson, foreman for the
Diamond Match company, has about 400
men at work on Wier and Mercer creeks.
but can accomplish nothing In driving.
No driving has been done on the main
river and about 400, 900, 900 feet Of logs
are hung'up there high and dry. Trout
creek contains about 5o,0oo,ooo feet and
has not enough water to feat cordwsod.
