Too Much Snow for Logging.

DULUTH, Mimi, Feb. 15.-Logging opera
to an end on account Of the deep snow in
the woods. There is now four feet of snow
in the timber. 1t is the first winter in many
years that logging operations in this section
have been forced to come to a stand still on
account of an excess CT snow. The big logging
concerns, as we'll as the small ones, are COM
ing out of the woods. The great amount of
snow makes it impossible to skid logs sue
cessfully. Most of the logs that have been
skidded have been hauled. Loggers who have
been operating where the timber was scatter
ing have suffered the most. 1t was the cal
culation ct the opening of the winter to log
about 125, COO feet of timber, but it is now
given out that not more than half that
amount will be banked but head of the lakes
saw mills will have timber to run them well
into the fall.
