Canadian Development Reveals Copper Find in Ontario
Lord Strathcona forwards Ottawa interior minister's cable noting a large copper deposit near Larder Lake in Ontario's W district, four miles from Larder Lake. The report cites rising western real estate values, Brandon lands auction results at 17.1 dollars per acre, Winnipes building permits totaling 12.5 million dollars, and Montreal export gains in wheat flax seed flour and cheese alongside growing inland and ocean trade, with tonnage up versus last year.

Timber cruisers in demand in Portland woods
A Portland paper notes unprecedented demand for timber lands by eastern capitalists. All timber cruisers with headquarters in Portland are out in the woods, and if 100 more were needed their services would be required. The busy season prompts cruisers to work even at Christmas in deep, wet forests.

Timber Cruiser Wages Rise In Pacific Northwest Areas
Estimates on quarter section trusts require timber volume assessments before land transfers. Cruisers now earn higher wages across Oregon and northern California, with daily rates of ten dollars not seen as high yet. California wages reach fifteen dollars for extreme job sites among Blakes and Del Norte counties. Workers hike remote mountains with blankets and provisions, with board and transportation extra. A few months in the woods can yield a sizable sum, though spending is unlikely during active work.

Fuel Shortage Looms In Lewiston Clarkston Area
The Lewiston Tribune reports coal use in Lewiston and Clarkston totals about two and a half car loads daily, with private companies consuming about one third and families the rest. Wood prices have risen to 9 dollars per cord as supply tightens, with scarce seasoned wood likely depleted by February or March. Some predict wood could reach 10 dollars per cord if mountain cutters fail to secure fuel. A woodcutting surge near Troy may ease the market, while coal movement along the Palouse branch is blamed on Canadian Pacific Railroad for restricting US track shipments.
