Lumber Cutting Season Nearing Hts Ter
minatton.
The early morning shrek of the
whistle and the hum Of The saw will
soon be hushed until the advent OF an
other spring. Weyerhauser & Denk-
mann's mill will close down this
week. probably Friday. while the
mills Of the Rock Island Lum Der
company will continue until Nov. 90.
The Rock Island mills have had an
unusually prosperous season, all
things considered. The Rock leland
Lumber company is shipping 20 car
loads OF lumber daily, and during
the months Of August, September
and October, had bigger business
than in any three corresponding
months in its history.
