Worcester Lumber Company at chas-
sell is Rushed With Work.

AS a result of the rush of logs re-
ceived at the mill of the Worcester
Lumber company at Chassell, which
overtaxed the daily capacity of the
mill, the company was forced last
night TO put its big mill into opera
ton on night shift for the first time
since last September and the fact is
an occasion of rejoicing in the village
as it gives employment 10 80 more
men.
+. A. Hamar of Chassell, general
manager of the company, was in
Houghton yesterday. He states that
unusually large quantities of pine are
received at the mill from points east
Of Marquette and along the Copper
Range railroad. This kind of lumber
is fast becoming an unknown factor
in upper peninsula numbering Mr..
Hamar says that the numbering out
look generally is good. The prospect
for higher hemlock markets is favora-
BILE and as the bulk of the numbering
in the copper country is in this timber
and as the recent prices have not been
very profitable, numbering in the cop
per country will receive a decided i'm
petus.

Gently in remarkable lecture before

crops would probably be multiplied in
value by millions of pounds.
Mr.. Herrod, proving his conten

the bee to be one of the greatest

But the farmer and fruit grower

Is proved that apples are earlier,
larger and much more numerous
where bees are in quantity. Some
photographs showed that misshapen
and stunted apples are due principally
to bad fertilization and the perfect
strawberry needs 100 to 300 acts Of
fertilization.

the humble bee fertilizes the first crop

the second crop can be reached by
honey bees; the great enemy of the
humble bee is the field mouse; the
great enemy of the field mouse is the

Apples Cure Horse Of Fear.

James Lyons, of Skowegan,

pies in so training his horse that
the animal Is no longer afraid of
automobiles. The ANIMALS fear
OF motorcars has resulted IN four
broken wagons and nearly scared

Lyons was out driving recent
ly when he saw an automobile
coming along a narrow place in
the road. lie had been eating
apples, and as he jumped out of
the wagon he went to the horse's
head and gave the animal an
apple.
AS the machine whizzed by the
horse hardly noticed it. Lyons
then got his idea, went home and
perfected an arrangement to the
saddle large enough to hold sever
al apples BY pulling string
from the wagon the basket is
lowered IN front OF the horses
head, so that when an automobile
approaches the basket drops, the
horse begins eating the apple and
fails to notice the machine.
