Wages are good now and promise
to remain 80 all winter. The lowest
wages offered for work In the woods
now is $4 per month. and some
times az high as $26 is offered. These
are both higher than the hest last

were last season. Last season g
wages 1t must he remembered. were
higher than the average during the
