In spite of the fact that G.. Sullivan's
mills at WhitneyVille were burned last
fall, he is doing larger amount of log
ging this winter than for many years
past. In the six crews that are employed
he has so men, "A horses and six oxen.
The largest crew is that on Township No
Sc. under John r. Sullivan where seven
wagon sleds are being used at the present
time. No announcement has been made
by Mr.. Sullivan regarding his plans but
it is generally believed that he will erect
a new mill during the coming season. His
plans for the winter operations were made
previous to the fire and nearly all of the
teams had commenced work so that any
change would have resulted in loss on
account of the expense of getting the
crews started.
The Whitneyville station on the line

into four foot length and loaded upon the
sleds in one hour and twenty minutes by
the crew one day last week. The entire
crew employed by this company numbers
about fifteen men. AS several other COM
panies and individuals are shipping pulp
wood from the same place it has created a
greater amount of business than the town
has seen during the winter months TO"
several years past The crews employed
on Township No. % are expected to land
about six million feet of logs during the
present winter and the people of Whitney
vile are hopeful that this cut also may be
prepared for market and shipped from
that place. although as yet the purpose
of the owners has not been announced.

teachers never to become discouraged
with dull pupils. Mr.. ,Stetson said he
knew of one case where an exceedingly
dull boy, who required two years in
which to accomplish the work assigned
for one, found his sphere in collection
of rock specimens that had been placed
in the schoolroom. In a very short
space of time this boy excelled his
teacher in the knowledge Of minerals.
