LOGGING CAMPS STARTED
BY LOCAL CONTRACTORS
MORRISON ESTATE AND HALL
AND SON BEGIN WORK.
No Difficulty Experienced in Recruit
ing Men For Woods.

Logging work has been started for
the fall and winter season in the cop
per country. Several camps have been
established throughout the county ana
from now until spring the sound Of the
AK and saw will resound through the
woods. Logging operations probably
viii be more extensive i'm this section
than for several seasons past. owing TO
the favorable condition of the market.
The j. S. Morrison Estate Of Laur-
ium has opened two camps, one at
layshore, on a branch of the Mineral
Range, a few miles west of Keweenaw
Bay and another at Motley, on the
same line There are about fifty mon
employed at each camp and the aggre-
gate harvest will consist of about
1000 600 feet of cedar, hemlock. hard
wood and some pine Tho logs prob
ably will be banked at Kewcenaw
Bay.
Robert Hall and Son have opened
two camps, employing about seventy
i've men near Winona. and as they cx-
pect TO get out large harvest this
winter probably will increase the force
considerably during the coming month.
The Hall camps will operate almost
exclusively for pine, as the firm owns
one of the largest tracts of standing
pine in the upper peninsula, there be-
| ing only one other large tract remain
ing. Two large stationary engines
will be used this winter to haul the
sleighs loaded with logs up two steer
grades about one-eighth Of mile
long. The timber will be banked al
the Copper Range railroad and ship
ped by rail.
No difficulty has been experienced
SO far in recruiting men for the camps
and ii is not believed any trouble vii
be encountered all season. The wages
will be the same as were paid last year

Been seen in all the larger cities of

Ard the reason for this tremendous
success is easily explained.
The better informed a dramatist is
of shis art, the less time he has for
mere artifce and device; consequently
we have more detail character, atmos-
phera and truth in The Squaw Man"
than has been depicted in any other
play during the last two decades.
The details of character, manner and
speech are too minute to convey by
description, proof of the genuine
ness of this very successful, touching
and powerful drama.

Thefollowing article recently ap-
peared in the Fort Wayne Gazette:
1.-THE reporter heard several Of
the leading doctors of our city
say that Root Juice is certainly
a great medicine, as a number Of their
patients after using it a short while
for chronic stomach, liver and kidn ~
troubles were rapidly improving. One
broad-minded doctor was heard to
say in the presence of a number Of
people that he prescribed it to his
wife for a chronic liver trouble and
from a short use of it, it is simply
astonished. The remedy is doing SO
nuch good in Fort Wayne that it Is
the common talk of the city. People
from every walk of life are praising
it, and as a consequence the demand

pie are calling at the drug store dali

doing for themselves or some member
of the family. Mr. F. Monroe, who is
well known here, said he has spent
over four hundred dollars for medi-
cine and treatment for his stomach
trouble of long standing without bene-
fit until he started to take Root Juice
but that one bottle made such a change
in his condition for the better that
even his friends were noticing it. Mr..

COFFEE IS now BOILING
IN POINT OF Price
Three to Five Cents q Pound
the Advance

Americas coffee drinkers within the
mex, month VIII have to pay from 3
TO . cents pound more tor the best
grades OF coffee and it is likely that
the increase i'll prices Of the cheap or
grades will be even more marked.
Later it is not improbable that tie
price, which 5 greater now than It
has been in years, Will go up stlll
higher
Since July the price of coffee has
been increasing steadily owing to the
small output by the Brazilian gov
eminent, which controls the coffee
market of the world The price has
already gone up cents a pound Oh
the higher grades, and from I to 10
IS on cheaper grades.
Many dealers think that ultim4 ely
the prices which maintained before the
increase began will be more than
doubled, and the use of coffee will be
curtailed to a great extent.
The cause for the more marked in
crease in the cheaper grades is that
the greater demand of consumers for
lower grades makes it impossible &C
supply the customers
Whether there is really a scarcity IN
Brazil is not known, but the opinion
prevalent is that the government IS
deliberately curtailing the supply IN
order to increase the demand and
therefore their profits
1t appears that the government loan
ed the farmers of Brazil a sum APP
proximating $79,OOO,OOO, and that III
order to protect itself, it is keeping
the supply below the demand,
Numerous dealers have practically
exhausted the supply purchased from
the last output, and will soon begin
selling goods that cost them more,
Consequently prices must go up soon.
That the price in Americas will be
increased at an early date is admitted
by number of local grocerymen.
