It is an interesting fact, and a still
more interesting commentary on
the crudity of ideas as to the future
held by these, courageous pioneers
who opened the northern ore re-
gions, that the production of those
mines to serte which this. road was
originally built, was, in 1903, just 3
per cent Of the business of the road.
And when the line was built. and
the daring venture was successful
ly made, there was no thought that
other and tar larger deposits lay
contiguous, or that any other bust
ness might be secured. '-::~
7 In 1889 and 1890 merchantable de-
posts of iron ore were found on the
Mesaba range by men of activity
and foresight, who were not far in
advance of their time, Innumer-
able were the hardships of the ex-
plorers, as they are in every new
mining region, remote from civili-
ration and in the heart Of an uncon-
4ueted section, but development
was e,:ceedingly rapid, and in Nov
embef, 1892, the frst ore was hauled
ont by railway. Two cargoes of
this ore, brought down in the fall
Of 1902 were shipped by the cleve-
land firm Of .Oglebay, Norton and.
company,which was agent for these
trial shipments, The ore was diyid-

Three great commonwealth and
d province of Canada contribute to
the. Lake Superior production of
iron ore. The ranges in which lie
these mines are stretched along
from near the western side of Lake
Michigan to 100 miles west of Lake
Superior. Five lie in the United
States and one in Canada. All, are
of practically the same geological
age, and most of them have a great
similarity in formation, and in the
character of ore and of the sur
rounding pre.Cambrain rocks. Ac-
cepted theories of methods of for
nation of ore bodies and of deposi-
ton of ores in their great basins
are much the same for the entire
region.
The first of these ranges to re-
ceive attention was the Marquette,
which lies wholly in the state of
Michigan; second was the Menomi.
nee, chiefly in Michigan; but with a
minor fold projecting into the ad-
joining state of Wisconsin,; third
was the Penokee.Gogebic, also
chiefly in Michigan, but extending
across the Montreal river into Wis.
consin; fourth and fifth were the
Vermilion and Mesaba, both entire.
ly within the confines of Minnesota
and, go far as present Developments
go, almost wholly within the single
county of St. Louis. A few years
ago developments were extended
into the Algoma section of Ontari
and new range was found, similar
in most geological characteristics
to the Vermilion; it was called the
Michipicoten, and this is it's fourti,
year of small production. =.
One cannot realize the importance
of the iron ore business Of the Lake
Superior region and of Minnesota,
nor the advances that have been
made recently, until he compares
the present state of the industry
with that, of previous years and
with that of other iron producing
districts Within fifty years, the
United States has risen from posi-.
ton of absolute dependence upon
the old world for it iron supplies
to that Of the largest producer in
the world. The first shipment Of
Of iron ore from Lake Superior was
made 4 in 1850 and. consisted ten TONS.
This was hauled around the rapitls

A.few figures are required for q
proper understanding of the. i'm.
portance of the Lake Superior iron
ore region, and these, although
they are not new, are valuable To
the close Of 1903 there had been
shipped out of the lake district a
total of ,A3 s65y 900 gross tons Of ore,
all of which was the product of 80
years. So great has been the accel-
Grafton of production in the past
few years that of the vast total ship.
ments of the region three-fourths is
the product of 10 years, and half
has been mined in six years. 1t
took all the>years from 1850 to 1886
to find a market for as much ore as
was consumed in 1903 alone.
The Lake Superior region is pre-.
eminent as source of supply for
iron ores of high grade and free
from impurities; not only this, but
it is the only American region with
economical transport to distant
furnaces that furnishes ore in con:
siderable quantity; of a character
requisite for the manufacture of
bessemer steel. More than IS per
cent of all the iron ores used in
America are mined along the shores
of Lake Superior, and far more than
70 per cent of the iron and steel
made in this country is from these
ores. They are uniformly purer
than those mined on a large scale
elsewhere, so that ton of standard
lake ore will make nearer a ton of
pig iron than ton of average ore
mined elsewhere.
TOTAL SHIPMENTS OF ORES.
Total shipments of iron ore from
the Lake Superior region, for all

 The most novel and the most stupeldous numbering operations to be seen anywhere in the world may be witnessed in the Pa cific Northwest. Not even in the jungles of Asia, where logs are gotten out by the aid of elephants, Is there anything more picturesque One of the secrets of the OK ceptional interest possessed by modern lumbering In the States of Oregon, Wash ington and Northern California Is found no doubt in the enormous size of the trees handled. Nowhere else do loggers have to cope with forest giants of such towering height and broad girth.
 Recently there was loaded upon a railf road car in the Northwest a single log. that was 2S feet in length and measured no inches at the butt and 95 inches at the upper end. It contained 12,000 feet Of lumber and weighed nearly 24 tons The tree from which this log length was cut stood 200 feet without limb. Seven sec tions of 1t were logged and yielded 10000 feet of lumber. Nor Is such tree rare find They are encountered almost every day by loggers in the Northwest, whereas "sticks" ranging from 126 to 160 feet In length and designed for use as ships masts, plling, etc, are so common as to cause no comment
 Obviously the handling of these Oregon and Washington logs from five to ten feet and larger in diameter is very different matter from manipulating Eastern logs IS to IS inches across. To render the conditions yet more dissimiar,. the North western lumbermen are deniedl the aid of the snow and ice, which are of such as-

The Indian women of the Southwest have gained world wide fame as the nJak- CTS of the baskets. pottery and bian- kets or rugs which have come so exten- sively Into vogue of late years for deco raiive purposes. and without which no Indian room'' or ..cosy corner" is com. plete. Quite aside, however, from their artistic handiwork these natives of New Mexico, Arizona and Southern Cafifor- nla inspire Interest from the fact that they are in many respects, the most high ly civilized of all American Indians, and yet in language, dress, manners and eus- toms thay are totally different from ali other native tribes in Uncle Sans do- main.
 Perhaps no better evidence could be cited of how unlike they are to all other branches of the red race than is found in the position occupied by the women of each community. In every other ln- dian tribe the squaw is little more than a siave-a beast of burden, whose lot is to toll without murnur, while her liege lord smokes and hunts and dances In the Southwest the women ape the house builders, but they are also the house owners and the heads of the household from every standpoint
 Moreover, the habftations in which these Southwestern Indians dwell are vastly direrent from the topees which shelter the Northern tribes. major ity of the ancient peoples of New Mex leo and Arizona are not wanderers, but dwell permanently in compactly built, substantial villages, with houses rising bordering on more or less regular streets or courts. Instead of devoting their time and thoughts to warfare and the chase, the men of the Southwestern

Yet with all thelr other duties, much time must be devoted to soiemp ritee and ceremonies, for these Indians are, almost without exception. intensely religious.

The Northwestern lum- bermen.s however, being denied such as- sistance from nature, have been compelled to resort to the more modern and more effective plan of logging by steam.

This Is the practice of seyering the tree trunk at a point 10 feet or more from the ground instead of only a foot or two above the roots as Is the custom elsewhere. The United States government has denounced thls method of cutting as wasTeful, and has urged the Northwestern lumbermen to abandon 1t, but they say that the "swell'' at the butt
