A Growing Industry

That real work is being done
at the Washburn brick yard is
evident by the fact that the first
kiln of 175, 900 bricks is open and
ready for sale. and the second
kiln of 100000 will be complete
in about two weeks. Mr.. Skel-
bred informs US that sixteen
men are now employed, and the
factory is now turning out from
$4,000 to 10000 bricks a day,
and when the new belts are put
in place, the output will be from
1000 to $4,000 per day. They
are fine quality Of red brick. "a
The supply of first class clay
seems to be inexhaustable, and
the indications are that the fact
ory will be one of Washburn' s
permanent industries.
It seems to US there is good
here for tile and sewer
pipe factory. Why does not
some one who understands this
business investigate.

Ready for Logging

With the app roach of fall the
Stearns mber company are
preparing for their winter season
of logging. The company has
been conducting logging oper-
ations during the summer along
their railway, but in winter they
log in places that it is impossible
to haul in during the warm
weather.
It is not expected that the cut
on the reservation the coming
winter will equal that of last year
as practically no contracts will be
let to smaller jobbers this fall.
James Ryan has finished his
summer logging and is already
located at Stearn's siding, where
everything is in readiness for the
first snowfall. Dan Wier will
run his old camp at headquarters
while Thomas Echlin is already
decking logs at his new winter
camp.
Frank Morrison who conduct
ed camp alongside the Odanah
road last winter will this season
again run camp near Bear
trap.
The lumber market has been
rather dull for the past several
months, and as consequence
unless it picks up, the Stearns
company will not attempt to put
in the usual amount of logs that
they have in winters gone by.

said of him from the laboring men
than from auy other class of people.
These men are outspoken and ready
to defend him at once on all occa-
sions.
He has dole more in the last four
years to start the development of
agriculture and commercial fruit
growing than any other man in the
country dreamed could be done.
His work in these years has brought
settlers here; farms and orchards
are starting all, over the county.
He has shown the possibilities OF the
land and hundreds of others are fol-
lowing his good example. Lands
have increased from two and three
dollars per acre to ten and even fifty
dollars per acre.
His demonstration has quickened
business in every line, and is not
confined to his own town but has
spread to neighboring towns; they
are all catching the incentive and
are after it.
When chairman OF the town of
Bayfield, he built the city water
works. He has held town and coun-
ty offices and was always satisfact-
ory to the people.
He is one of those rare all around
men that think out their plans and
after formulating them is never
afraid to make the venture. He has
over 5000 fruit trees and as many
small fruit bushes growing nov,
and will plant nearly as many more
next spring.
In a year or two when he gets
little leisure time on his hands / ex-
pect to see him spring some other
successful enterprise upon us; 1t
takes whole lot of work to keep
him busy. Yes, we must have
Knight to represent us in Madison
and | can't see how any man in the
County should vote against him.
Never mind party or politics, get
behind the bali and keep it rolling
for your fellow citizen who has done
so much for your county.
You should take pride in boosting
for your town, your county and an
honorable citizen who has always
been clean, stable and upright in al
his works.
Without fail you should give VIM.
Knight your vote on Sept 9th.
Yours truly,

: Praise for Knight

Mr.. Editor.
DEAR SIR:-1f you will allow me
space in your paper [ would like to
say few words to the candidacy of
VIM. Knight for member of the as
S mbly (outside of my political rea-
sons) why every vote in Bayfield,
county should be cast for him. He
came here when a very young man
with but very little money, in fact,
with nothing. This country was a,
wilderness and Bayfield, the only
village in the county. He entered
the pioneer life with strong mind
and vigorous physiqa' ne com
mercl d work with his hand, and
brain and he has made good in every
enterprise that he has undertaken;
he has been laborer, a merchant,
a lumberman. banker, logger,
has built and run a saw mill and
opened stone quarries, and now he
is a farmer and hOrticultnrist. He
has ways been man of action, Of
deeds and few words. He was not
man always going to do something
and talking of what he was going to
do. When he announced today that
he was going to do something to-
morrow. you would see the work in
progress. When the people were
mourning that they bad no banki in
Bayfield, he announced one day that
he would start one. In thirty days
the bank was running. Every busi-
ness in town was asked to hely start
it. Not one of them would risk the
venture. He started it and made
| it a success. No one knew that he
was going to build saw mill until
the machinery was on the ground
and the men at work on the buildilg &
| No one knew that he was going tC
develop q farm and plant CONNER

and for that purpose, and strange
to say he has made a success of all
of them. He has handled hundreds 5

ple's money an1 never dollar went
