ARRIVING DAILY.

The mill equipment for the plant of
Charles Ziezer, which is being erected
just west of the L'Anse depot, has
been all loaded on the cars at Arthur
Bay and will be on the ground here in
a few days.
Mr.. Ziezer's cutting equipment will
consist of acircular saw, and he will
average between twenty and thirty-five
thousand feet of lumber per day. He
does not expect to get the mill started,
however, until late this winter or early
in the spring. When seen yesterday
he stated that he had not contracted
for the cutting of his logs yet, but he
hopes to interes local jobbers.
The gasoline caterpillar engine to be
used in hauling the logs from the woods
arrived Thursday. This machine is
quite novelty for this section. Mr..
Ziezer says that it will do the work of
about ten teams, and on an ordinary
snow road will haul six or seven sleigh
loads of logs at one time. He states
that he has never used an ice road and
therefore was not in position to say
how much the machine could pull on
this class of highway, which is gener-
ally used in this section for intensive
logging.
