Il The Consumers Power company has
started Il force of men at work setting
poles to carry the wires that are to
bring the electric current from the dam
at Rapidan to MankatO. The poles
are to follow the Mapleton road for
several miles out of the city, and thence
cut across to the dam. The trees are be-
ing cut away from the side of the
road where the poles are to be erected,
SO that nothing will come near the
heavily charged wires, and each pole and
crossarm has ground wire, to prevent
accidents.
The cutting away of the trees from
the roadside will be beneficial to the
