Plants Set Up in Lake Superior Re.
Eionby Wcyerhaeuser Syndicate.
A new proof of the fact that what
is. wasted one time becomes a yaIu-
able material under other circum.
stances, Is given in the success of pine
tar plants that have been started up
near the head OF Lake Superior. That
the industry is no experiment and of
no doubtful value is shown by the
fact that the Weyerhaeuser syndicate.
the largest numbering concern in the
world, has taken 1t up. has just bought
out the plants already established and
is installing more.
All the region about the head of
Lake Superior is, or was, covered with
pine timber, and when this was cut
the stumps remained on the ground
Pine stumps do not rot as do those of
hardwoods and the presence of these
stumps was serious obstacle to the
spread Of farming In the region.
Now comes the pine tar company
and offers to clear farm of ali its
old stumps or to pay the o.-ner So

mable boon and 1t will open hundreds

The company has invented, or up.
piled existing processes of destructive
distillation of wood to the pine stumps
and is securing combined product
OF great value. There is large
amount of turpentine In these dry
stumps, also a high grade of lubr.cat-
