To demonstrate easy, quick and
cheap ways of clearing logged-off or
cut over land, the Gland CLEARING
| LIMITED" will tour eleven of the
principal counties of Wisconsin's tim
Der belt beginning some time in April.
The ''stumping special" will be dis
tinctly working proposition of the
most practical nature, intended as a
demonstration to help men VINO have
settled or will settle in the undevel-
oped, cut-over regions Of the state.
The train, consisting of one fiat ear,
two box cars for equipment, two
''boarding" ears and one bunk" car,
will be operated through the cooper
alton of the Chicago & Northwestern
and the Chicago, Minneapolis, St. Paul
& Omaha railroads with the College of
Agriculture, University of Wisconsin
and number of the leading manufac
turers of land clearing apparatus and
explosives.
| County agricultural representatives
in a number of the counties to be visit
ed will make all necessary arrange
ments to secure the cooperation of
farmers and land companies in furnish
ing men and teams to aid in the vari-
Gus demonstrations.
A Grew of men, thoroughly familiar
with the methods of land clearing to
be shown, will accompany the train.
Machines for pulling and piling the
stumps will be carried by the demon
strators, including gasoline, horse and
hand stumners. Modern 'safety first"
systems for the use of explosives an
land clearing will also be shown.
Two or three stops will be made dur
ing each week of the trip, which will
about two months time. Each demon
stratiOn will be made as near tracks
as possible under actual working con-
ditions The old plan of making few
spectacular stump removals and then
leaving for new fields will not be fol-
! lowed On each tract clean sweep
will be taken of all stumps in sight.
At each of the places the demonstra-
ton field will be divided into plots re
uuireing equal amounts of energy to
clear them for the plow. DemOnstra-
tions for the various types of pullers
will select their plots by lot, visiting
farmers thus being given chance to
! hot or
processes are best suited to conditions
on their own land. In case OF untaVor-
| able weather the demonstrations Will
consist of illustrated talks in the town
halls or other meeting places, where
charts, lantern slides and models will
be displayed and explained and .ques-
! tions answered.
| The route of the Gland CLEARING
! LIMITED" will be definitely announc-
| ed next week, when al details Will be
complete. The counties, however, to
be included in the itinerary are: Ocon-
to, Forest, Langlade, Oneida, Villas,
Bayfield,, Douglay, Washburn, Sawyer,
Barron and Chippewa.
The clearing of the large acreage of
cut-over land in northern Wisconsin
| is big problem which not only re-
quires the expenditure OF much energy
but a large amount of money and the
"LAND CLEARING LIMITED will
serve as a means of starting state
wide movement toward placing more
of this promising region under the
plow.
