and for well-known writer's five cents a

cents word are the next step in the

of ships timber for the building of
ocean vessels at Atlantic points. The
industry started but few years ago
in this state and is increasing with
each year, because timber of the pro-
per sort is lacking in the states to the
east. E. c. Edgerly, representing "a
shipbuilding firm at Auburn, Maine,
says:
''We lido not bother with the mast
and regular long construction timber,
but devote our attention to getting out
corner braces and for this purpose it
is necessary to use the roots of trees,
the main trunk, aside from u foot or
two at the butt, not being called into
use at all. Tamarack is best suited for
the purpose, and as the stumps of trees
are as suitab BILE as the trees themselves,
provided the roots are intact, there is
an almost unlimited field here in Min
nesota for us to work in. All we have
to do is to follow in the tracks of the
tie cutter and use what they leave.
The stump, or a portion of it; is taken
from the ground, and the crooked
piece is then hucd into shape, later be-
ing hauled to railroad and shipped to
Auburn, Maine, where it goes through

One of the important features or tH1
state fair of 1905 will be the depart
ment of Minnesota Manufactures. rms
year the exhibit will be broadened IN
order that all Minnesota manufacturers
may take space and exhibit their prod
ucts, although preference will be given
for ''live exhibits" that is, exhibits
showing process of manufactured either
Of the entire article or of some part or
the goods exhib ited.
This decision is the result of recent
conference between William f.. Lee
superintendent of the manufactures
building, and a committee OF the
Northwestern Manufacturers associa-
tion.
The association will cooperate with
Mr.. Lee in bringing out good show
and it is expected that the building
will be we'll filled with interesting and
instructive exhibits. No charge is
made either for space or power, and
each exhibitor will be furnished with
free admission to the fair grounds for
himself and the person in charge OF
the exhibit. At night the building
will be we'll lighted, and it is expected
that no less than 25o,OoO people will

manufacturers to bring their goods to
