holdings in the near as several desirable timber tracts in this vicinity are known tobe on the It may be said in truth that the settler and small timber jobber never fully appreciated having an active local market for their log and pulpwood products until the mill operations of the Scott Howe Company were at an The coming of the Marathon Company to Ironwood and the estab of the Underwood mill at

disbursement of the most substantial sums in about two Twelve shifts a month constitute only half time under the old reckoning but are time under code When there is in creased demand for iron work days will be stepped up to sixteen or twenty shifts a month which are to be the normal conditions of the we are The only hope of men now seeking employment at the mines lies in the future when those now employed by the com panics shall have been advanced to a work period and the operators must seek addi tional help to produce the iron ore tonnages de of It is doubtful if even our relief workers

general guess that most people get along with not more than 900 words hardly seems If it so happened that everybody used the same 900 it is obvious that many language problems would be greatly This sounds like a mere but practical se of an idea along this line has been made in he establishment of a with a ary limited to 900 Published by the research with offices at New York it made its first

the beer control commis sion has if not of socalled restaurants that are not restau rants at It is not likely that public opinion would support licensing of these places for traffic in all sorts of When we come to are we to have the blossoming of if not of hotels with the purpose of getting hard liquor licenses as the restaurants spawned to get beer licenses for their proprietors If the bars are to be down for the hotels as they were for the restaurants we will have as many places of sale of beer and of hard liquors as we had of the and many of them will be no better in There is nothing in the restaurant and hotel provisions of the proposed law inherently What is to be said of them and will de pendent on the question of how the words res and hotel are We will hear much on this subject
