LUMBER CUT SMALLER
Is Report from the Penobscot-Less
Demand for Men.

1t Is said at the employment agencies
OF Bangor that the demand for men FOR
the woods is now very light, saws the
commercial. Those in search Of work
are drifting to the city and going out
more ana more slowly, and it is
thought that another week will wind
up the sending Of men to the woods.
A remarkable thing about the present
season IS that the men are staying
by their JOBS in the camps much long
er IN the average than during the
past few seasons Usually large
number of men who are sent. to the
woods by the Bangor employment
agencies become dissatisfied for one
reason or another and come back
to the city in a short time. This
year. they are staying well, and but
few have packed up and left the
camrS.
1t was estimated Wednesday that
90 per cent. of the lumber camps are
fully manned. Especially in the north
OF Maine. where most trouble is found
in getting mSn. and getting them to
stay after they arrive, is it noticeable
this autumn that the wOodsmen are
easier to lire and easisr Ii. 'rc....
One reason for this Is that fewer men
Daily Kennebec journal. [microfilm reel] (Augusta, Me.) 1870-1975, 1910-10-28

have been called for, as the operations
are much less extensive. it is said at
tue employment agencies, than they
have been for some years past.
In st. John river waters it is said that
the lumber cut this winter will be only
about 80 per cent. of tnat of last year.
1t is probable that this accounts for so
many men from the maritime provinces
coming to Maine for work
Over in the western part of the State
it is said that the cut will be very much
less than it was last fall This case is
cited, that the Berlin Mills Co., which
usually cut from 60 to so million feet. is
this year doing almost nothing in the
way of operating in Maine, but is getting
practically all of its stock in Canada.
The few numbering operations being car
red in Maine for the benefit of this
concern are not managed by the company
directly but are let ont to contractors.
Several woodsmen were sent into the
woods from Bangor Wednesday, among
them being one or two Nova Scotiamen
who drift in on the chance of striking
work. But others who applied Wednes
day, especially a number who desired
jobs as teamsterS, We're not successful in
getting employment as there were no
orders on hand from the operators.
The wages this year for woodsmen
range from $50 to $50 and found 4
month. This is considered to he good pay.
although it is a little less on the average
than was offered last fall. The difference
is accounted for by the curtailed opera
tons and the consequent large number
of men available. On the East Branch
Of the Penobscot about 4l.0HeO0O feet
were cut last winter and it is said that
the amount brought down from this
branch next spring will he much less
than this. One reason for this. of course
Is the absence of the operations which
formerly supplied the James Walker &
co. mill at Basin Mills. which was de-
stroyed by fire not long ago. The total
cut on the West Branch of the Penobscot
VIII also be smaller than it was last sea
son. In short time more men will be
wanted for the birch woods, especially
teamSterS, and orders have already been
filed by operators with the local employ
ment agencies

King of the Frozen North
BY ELLEN! VEIViN.

We have heard SO much about the North
Pole lately that the little men and women
will. of course, be interested in hearing
about the wild animals which live there. In
this cold, cold country at the top of the
world, in spite of snow and ice, huge g1a-
ciers and icebergs as big mountains,
where in winter there is no sun, and where
the ice on the sea is five or six feet thick,
there live many creatures. The polar bear
is one of the most noted Of these animals.
and Just as the lion is called the king Of
beasts among the forest animals, SO tho
polar bear is called the king of the frozen
North Like all true polar animals, he is
pure white all the year around. He lives
along the coasts of the Arctic Ocean, all
around the North Pole, and seldom goes
any more than one days journey inland on
any shore.
This bear differs in many ways from
other bears. In the first place, he is tall,
large animal, with long neck, small head,
fat sides. and big wide feet. All other
bears have big heads. very short neCkS, and
on the bottoms of their feet are large pads
covered with skin. But the pads of the
polar bears feet are covered with thick

children to SaloniCa she iOined the revolu-

to represent the Turkish women in IA pub-
lie address to the Governor Of the city
Every one recognizes Gulistan As a leader
in the new party, and her husband, who IS
secretary to the president of the Chamber
of Deputies, is very proud of her.

he lets her meet many intellectual men.
Lady Iialideh was very sensible. She

whole regiments of the army sent her mes
Saees that they adored her. She was made
honorary member of two mems clubs,
an extraordinary distinction for a Turkish
woman. Princesses came to her asking
her to organize women's clubs and edu-
Gators beseeChing her to establish schools "
All this honor was followed by a period
Of danger for Lady HaIdeh When the
counter revolution came the reaction which
eventually failed. Lady Halldeh was one

kns helped her away into Egypt. where
she stayed till The peril was past

school. The government is paying the eX-
penses of twenty-five. who are to be teach

ton. when there was scarcely Turkish

wants.
The mother bear usually has a family of
two little ones at time, but it IS very
rarely that the little bears are seen. In
the Geological Gardens at Buffalo there was
once a tiny polar bear born, but for some
reason or other the mother bear would not
have anything to do with it and left it out
in the cold until it was very nearly frozen
to death Then the superintendent of the
gardens DR.. Crandall, with great difficulty
got it away from her. He wrapped it up
in some wool, took 1t to his house and put
It in a hot water bath, and then laid it by
the stove with hot water bags around. He
fed it with hot milk through a babys feed
ing bottle. and for three days and nights he
scarcely left it. For the first two days it
seemed to be doing pretty we'll but then it
began to droop. and finally died. This was

alone for time, and then when the drec-
