THE BRISTOL.

There is an extra hustle noticeable
about this property these days and the
big STOCK pile is growing faster than
ever. There are more men working
than some time ago and an extra
effort is being made to get good
start for the spring There was a
suspension Of hosting during the
latter part of December in order Ia
allow Of extensive improvements being
made to the crusher and engine A
new foundation was put In, This gives
the Bristol one Of the best equipped
crusher plans on the range.
A new lift is being added to the
shaft Work was started on this lift
but recently and it will be time for
navigation to open before it will be
down. 81 ore reserves on the pre-

LAND AS LAND.

Timber land used to be regarded
simply for the timber that was on it,
but now the possibilities Of its use Tor
agricultural purposes when the timber
has been removed are being considered
Every one knows that hardwpod land
is almost always good farming hand,
and yet there are many SECTIONS q
the country where this general know
ledge has not been acted upon and
where laid has been abandoned after
the timber was taken Oft and has even
tually been sold at almost nominal price
or allowed 10 revert TO the state for
delinquent taxes But the reverse Of
this policy. by which an effort is made
TO colonize cut over lands, has pro-
duced some wonderful transformations.
In the early days no section looked
more unpromising from an agricultural
standpoint than the upper peninsula
Of Michigan. IL was assumed in the
first place that Il was too cold foI
agriculture and in the second place that
the soil would raise nothing but trees.
Well. there is a good deal OF it that
even now is valueless except for tree
growing. but it has been discovered
that considerable part of it, not only
of the hardwood lands but where there
was a mixed growth of pine and hard
woods, and even sometimes of the pine
lands then selves. is suitable for a.

THE ORE MARKET

No action has yet been taken as to
prices, but discussion has been carried
on freely and informally during the
week. The position of the United
States steel Corporation is understood
TO be that, as it will not sell ore ex-
cept TO its constituent companies, IL
will not take an active part in fixing
prices, but will abide 10y those decided
upon for merchant mines. provided
they are not unreasonably high. The
talk within few days has been
strongly in favor of higher prices, the
sentiment in some cases favoring an
ADVANCE of about 20 cents for Mesabi
ores and from % TO so cent for old
range Bessemers 1t is not yet known
whether there will be any agreement
on non. Bessemers No action az TO
prices of any kind OF ores will be taken
until the compilation OF statistics con
Germ ing probable demand OF furnaces
has been completed. Those who adj
yocate advances hold that, excepting
the furnaces of the United States Steel
Corporation, whose policy appears to
be carry stocks of ore considerably
. in excess of the needs of the months
that remain OF the closed season. there
Is not an unusually large supply of ore
