CORDS AND CORDS
OF Wood Brought in for Electric Light
- and Water Plants.

The amount of cord wood being
brought into the city just now is as
tonishing. IL looks as though all the
farmers had suddenly gone into the
wood business, and each was trying to
win the medal for the greatest quanti-
ty. At first one can but wonder where
IL all goes TO, and to satisfy an idle
curiosity and also to chase the elusive
item, The Journal man investigated.
While there seems to be general lay
ing in Of wood for next winter, even at
this early season, which accounts for
some Of the activity, there is regular
procession Of teams with two objective
points, the electric plant and the water
plant. There are acres Of Il at each
place--wood Of all kinds and degrees,
slab wood, edgings, fir anything that
will burn, and besides this the saw,
dust from the min. 1t looks now as
though there was wood on hand enough
to last indefinitely, but the steady drain
eats up big ricks at surprising rate.
