usive. THE MARINE RECORD A LUMBER EMPORIUM. Correspondence New York Evening Post. ‘A long while before one reaches Saginaw the signs of the prevailing industry-become apparent, ‘The streams are clogged with the slabs, browned and rotting logs, und chaotic masses of wooden debris from the’ size ot a mateh up to the huge sawn beam which in some ancient flood kas escaped its bondrs In the fields still remain the Ctree-stumps or piles of sawdust a dozen feet high, marking the old site of a was-mill now removed be- cause the material that fed it has been cut away. But all these initial symptoms of the lumber region are eclipsed and forgotten when the Saginuw river is reached, and with it the busy center of the industry. For 16 mites down to Bay:City, near Lake Hu- |. ron, the stream flows between wooden strands. ‘The eye strains itseltin vain to see beyond the lumber horizor that stretches east and west. ‘lhe yellow waters, perhaps 200 feet wide, pass first hetween continuous booms, each enclosing its army of giant toge. These booms reach tar above Saginaw, and if we include tribucaries of the river and count beth sides, make upanreach of log posts 75 miles long. Next to the logs, and on the bank proper, rise, most impressive of all, the tracts of sawu lumber. Pile on pile they rise on either side for 16 miles up and down the stream, covering acre after acre until the wooden monotony becomes oppres- Now and then the wooden strand be- comes thinner only to rise again to more imposing height and width around a new Cluster of mills. ‘These mills often of grand -proportions, spring from their lumber heaps _ draw his salary out of the pay car. asagiant of fairy story looms amid the disintegrated bones of his victims. ‘Their tall iron chimneys belch black smoke, the rattling saws cut the air with their distant rasp, and the sense of industrial activeness is niled out by the-hives of workmen swarm: ing over the Jumber hills, and loading them, by slow ateady toil, into barges whose hulls | rival the capacity of a Cunarder. Along this stretch of 16 miles of the Sag- inaw river there are cut annually a billion feet of lumber, and last year the figures went 60 millions higher than that amount. Since to most readers these figures are a vague immensity of numbers, let us try to simplify them by/an illustration, A foot of |. lumber, the unit of broad measure, means a board one foot square and one inch thick; go that, for example,-a plank two inches thick, one foot wide and ten feet long would contain 20-lumber feet. Now apply the measure to the figures of the annual Suag- inaw lumber product, as cited above. We shall find that the Saginaw mills turn out each year so much lumber, large and emall, that i¢€ it were all cut.in inch-thick boards, each of them one foot wide, and then these boards were placed end-to end, they would reach about 200,000 miles around our planet. The product, to put the. illustration a little differently, would supply lumber enough for a fence tour times rround the world, made of solid wooden posts, and witha «:donble row of boards each six inches wide. More roughly I estimate that the yearly Saginaw lumber product in logs floating closely tcgether would cover a water area of considerably more than four square miles. BILL NYE IN A SAW MILL. From the Boomerang. I have just returned from a trip up from the North Wisconsin railway, where I went to catch a string of codfish and anything else that might be contagious. Northern Wisconsin isthe place where they yank a big wet log into a mill and turn it into cash as quick asa railroad man can The log is held on a carriage by means of iron dogs while it is being worked into lumber. ‘These iron cogs are not like those we see on the front steps of a brown stone front occasional- ly. ‘They are another breed of dogs. The managing editor of the mill lays out the log in his mind and works it into di- mension stutt, shingle bolts, slabs, edgings, two by fours, two by eights, two by sixes, etc., 80 us to use the goods to the best ad- vantage, just as a woman takes a dress pattern and cute it so she won’t have to piece the front breadths, and will still have enougtr left to make a polonaise for the last summer gown. I stood there for a long time watching the various saws and listening to their monotonons growl, and wishing that T bad been born a successful timber thief instead of a poor boy without arag to my back. At one of these mills, not long ago, a man backed up to get away from the carriage, and thoughtlessly backed against a Jarge saw that was revolving at the rate of abont 200 times a minute. The saw took a large chew of tobacco from the plug he had in his pistol pocket, and then began on him. But there’s no use going into details. Such things are not cheertul. They gathered him up out of the sawdust and put him in a nail- keg and carried him away, but he did not speak again. Life was quite extinct. Whether it was the nervous shock that killed him or the concussion of the cold saw against his liver no one ever knew. The mill shut down a couple of hours so that the head sawyer could file his saw, and then work was resumed once more. We should learn from this never to lean on a buzz saw when ft moveth itself aright, a A new crib is building at Dunlap ree* lighthouse.
