of $4,000 have been made by the spec
ial commission consisting of G.. l..

Light and Power Co. will run high
tension line from the Jim Falls power
plant to Wissota. The average price
paid was about 500 for each tower To-
cation.
The Jim Falls power development
along with the surplus power from

proposed projects, among which is
identification of the Milwaukee road

dam here to the Northern States Pow
tr Co. at st. Paul under an optional
agreement as to the amount of power
to be delivered.
The big lin Falls power project will
be completed in about three months
and will add greatly to the 10000
horse power now developed at the To-
cal dam plus the 10000 developed at
the Cedar Falls dam near Menom0nie.
Fifty cities and municipalities are be-

WHITE PINE SUNK 35
YEARS TO BE SALVAGED

A Villas county paper says that mil
lions of feet of the best pine now lie
at the bottom of streams and lakes in
northern Wisconsin, where they have
remained sunken for the past thirty
five yeers. This will develop a new
pine crop in northern Wisconsin and
place on the market some of the finest
lumber in the country. Streams and
lakes where logs were floated, and
there are hundreds of them in that re-
gion, will be dragged by crews of men
from the Lower Michigan Log Salvag-
ing company, and many millions of
feet of logs will be raised and shipped.
This will take many months and an
enormous crew of men to lift the logs.
Some Of these "deadhead" logs have
been at the bottom of the Wisconsin
river and its tributary streams and
lakes for the past thirtyfve years.
Old lu1nbermen claim that there is no
timber to equal this crop of white pine
now lying under the water.
