Log Drive Begins Up McKenzie to Booth Kelly Mill
Springfield reports a crew of ten to fifteen log drivers left for Deerhorn to push 3,500,000 feet of Booth Kelly logs to Coburg mill. The timber is large with many sticks five feet at the small end. Water is low and several weeks are needed to complete the run. A Willamette drive from Hyland's will start mid June to the Springfield mill. The mill now runs on logs from Wendling by train, under capacity due to insufficient supply.
