To Survey the Forests.

A: B. Ayres, of Carlton, Mimi, has
been granted commission from the
national bureau of forestry at Wash
ington to make forest survey of Min
nesota. The work will be begun at
once, and will be done in thorough
manner, the object being to procure
data for the publication of an accurate
forestry and geological map of the
state, the geological facts, of course,
being taken from the state surveys al
ready existing. '.'
Wherever possible, Mr.. Ayres will
obtain his information from the own
ers of the various timber tracts, but
when this is impractical he will him
self visit the districts in question and
will ascertain what regions have been
cut over, what burned over, what re-
stocked, and what are still in their
primeval condition. g. d. /; i 9%it :

MINNESOTA STATE NEWS.
An Enlarged Plant.

The enlargement of the Minnesota
Iron and Steel company's establish
ment at Minneapolis by the addition of
a large open hearth steel plant has
been completed. The building is en-
tirely finished, the open hearth fur
mace and other machinery have been
put in place and the fires have been
started.
It will take about ten days to heat
the furnaces to the proper temperature
for use, and at the end of that time the
crews which are being engaged will be
put at work. The force of men now
employed will be augmented by about
100 more men when the manufacture
of steel is commenced.
The new department will have a ca
pacity of 10000 tons of finished steel
per year, making the total tonnage ca
pacity of the mill about 40, 900 tons of
iron and steel a year. In addition to
the production of steel, the company
will continue to turn out bar iron from
the old part of the factory. The roll
ing mills will be able to cover practi-
ca1ly all the; requirements of the
Northwest, yhsoutput:H: now consisting
of bar iron and soft steel bars, flats,
plates, wagon and buggy tires, steel
castings, nuts, bolts, harrow teeth,
drift pins, spikes, etc.
The mill has now been running night
and day since last April, and the pay
roll has averaged over 800 men. The
steel plant will require an addition to
the force of over 100 men.

Forest Preservation.

Under this head the. state auditor
land forest commissioned in his an
nual report says: ''The law for pre-
venting and extinguishing forest and
prairie fires has been in operation
practically for four years, and has met
reasonable expectations. During this
period Minnesota has been free from
such serious forest fires as have oc-
Cured in neighboring states. Of course
it needs no law to make people turn
out to save their own or neighbors'
property from fire, but the benefit of
the fire warden is especially apparent
in cases where a forest fire may have
been set in a remote or ,sparsely set
tied locality, in a dry season, and which,
but for the prompt attention of fire
wardens, might prove disastrous. The
leading object of the law also is to pre-
vent dangerous forest or. prairie fires
from being set. Prevention, indeed. is
it's leading principle. Not only does
the fire warden law tend to prevent
such catastrophe as occurred at
Hinckley in 1894, but by helping to
save the younger growth of timber, it
tends to prolong our important lumber
