least"

have become very numerous in the
region about Rangeley in the last few
years of protection. and there are
many dams in the territory visited
by hunters.
One of the largest ever seen in this
part of the State has been discovered
by hunters near Sanders Station and
not more than a dozen yards from the
railroad
The dam is quite curiosity and a.
good many people have visited the
spot in the last few days. The dam is
rs feet long and three feet high, and
is as well built as though done by
experienced mechanics. There are
many beavers at work there, and by
approaching with care one may see
them at their work.
Hardwood trees seven inches
through have been nicely cut down
and poplars not less than 10 inches
through have been handled by the
beavers. apparently without difficulty.
There are several other dams within
few miles of this one.

people need is something that viii

that their blood can absorb them and
