ing grades, but others of more Importance are
looked for shortly. Shipments are small, and
for the month have been 260000u0 feet from
Duluth, Two Harbors and Superior, In the order
given. 1t is probable that these will continue
for month yet, when they will probably cease
Tor the season. For the three ports shipments
of the season to Oct are 255.00O, 600 feet.
Several local mills closing down for the
season. scottGraf Lumber company has closed

Il few weeks from the Duluth railway extern

time on account of the death Of Mr.. Dalrymple,
who projected the road and built the first sec
tion. Now the people of Cornucopia, logging
and business town on the south shore, west of
bayfield,. have made proposition for an extern
sion TO their place. and Port Wing Is expected
TO follow with a like proposition for further
extension.
In the heavy rains of few days ago the
Nemad1i cleaned out all the logs along its course.
There were about 1000, 900 feet of logs on the
upper river that had been left for later driv-
ing. This lot was the of the final drive
on this stream. These logs came down all
standing, and they brought about all the upper
river dams with them. that the stream is
practically clear Of both logs and improvements
The Nemadji has been prolific source of logs
Tor Duluth mills but Its usefulness is over.

In the. Prairie river and Grand Rapids country,
where the cut has been very heavy for some
years. 1t Is expected that a decrease Of about
100000, 600 feet will be made this winter In the
