and the advisability of laws doing away
with the formation of irrigation dis
tricts

SPLIT LOGS FTOR A LIVING.
Occupation Immortalized by Lincoln
Followed by Two Girls.

Splitting logs is the vocation follow
ed by two women in the woods back OF
Wallis station, on the Pennsylvania
railroad. Annie and Mary Wilson are
the names Of these two women. They
are sisters. They split rails and make
pit posts and caps for the Spring Hill
Coal Company, whose works are be-
tween Wilmerding and Walls. They
do all the work of telling the trees,
saving them into proper lengths and
finally with their axes splitting them
into pit posts. They are assisted to
some extent by their younger brother.
The girls work together always and
can swing an eight-foot cross cut saw
through an oak tree with apparently
as much ease as some women run
typewriter.
When the tree is sawed through and
ready to split one of the girls sets an
non wedge into one end of the log and
with a large maui weighing about
twenty pounds drives it in, splitting
the log from end to end. The opera
ton is repeated until the log is split in
to sizes for posts. Then the axes are
brought into play and the posts trim
med up and shaped. The girls came
from Indiana.
''The work is not hard when you get
used to it," said one, 'tand then we can
make more money splitting rails and
pit posts in one day than We
could in week working in a kitchen.
What's the difference, SO long as the
work is honest, how one earns a liv-
ing? Although I work hard every day, |
rain or shine, I never get sick. I was |
never sick in my life. The people !
around here all talk about us, but we |
don't care for that. We are earning |
/ good living and don't owe anyone !
