M1nN4EEsOTA LOG AND TlmBE2 CO.
TheMinnesota Log and Timber
company is new corporation with
a capitalization of 100000 and head
quarters in Duluth. 1t is another
factor, III the development of the ex-
tensiveinterests of Cook & Turrish
and their associates.
Articles of incorporation of the
new company we're filed with the
secretary of state at St. Paul Satur-
day. KFhe new company has been
organized to buy and sell timber,
logs and lumb Der, and to manufac-
ture lumber. It is understood that
the company was organized pri-
marily TO handle the timber of the
Mitcl8ell & Mcclure company, but
has other important functions. The
one tstt wall heat tle. aaost>impoxt=
ancet to Duluth and Northern Min
nesota generally is that of manu-
featuring lumber. AS announced
in the News Tribune recently the
Cook & Turrish interests propose
to manufacture their timber in the
territory traversed by their railroad
now under construction, the Du.
luth, Virginia & Rainy River line
The timber, instead of being trans
ported to established sawmill
points, will be sawed at mills to be
built on the line of the road, and
this branch of the general enter
prise will be handled by the Mime
sofa Log and Lumber company, in
addition to buying and selling logs
and stumpage.
The company, according to pres
ent plans, will build four sawmills.
These plants will be scattered along
the line at advantageous points as
regards the location of the pine.
The mills and the logging opera
tions incidental to their operation
will employ large number of men
permanently, and assist materially
irt building up number of good
towns.-News Tribune.

the AsMand is producing at great:
er rata than at any previous time,
with zthe exception of the years
1890 tof1801, inclusive, but no sink
ing iss%being done. So much ore
has been shown in the upper levels
that ithas been deemed unwise to
attempt sinking until most of the
ore Insight has been removed, as
the mine is operated on the caving
plan, and the opening of shafts too
far AHEAD of production would be
work that would be very likely to
have to be done over again. The
diamond drill, however, has told
the story of immense ore reserves
extending far below the deepest
preceding workings. There are
some places in the mine where the
caving system of winning the ore is
not muse, but the caving plan is
used Wherever practicable, and will
eventually be used throughout the
mine.
