the advent of winter, and tho farm
work all done up, leaving the only
source of employment in the log
King camps, many men are out of
a job. and are looking lor work.
Tho cluinren for the use of all idle
nu n In this section look very un
favorable, unless the cutting force1.
in the legging camps are greatly
increased.
Some "of tho men hunting work
say they have been informed by
contractors and otherH that more
men would be used shortly after
tiiu first of tho new year. 1
I hiring Ihe season when many
local men were employed by farmer.-;
in the harvest field, the short
age of labor was keenly felt in the
woods. It was at this season when
niativ inon from the southern
j -states came to the northwest in
(.search of work, finding work ot
Jail kinds plentiful, in the camps,
and nearly any when they cared
to work. Xalurally when the. fall
work on the ranches was finished
' the number of men was in excess
ui joiif.
Very few farmers are attempt
ing to hire any nt this season of
Hit; year, about all tho work be
ing done on the farms jire the gen
eral chores, and looking after and
feeding stock. A few have been de
livering hay Into town, where U
ton or two is wanted by people
living in town, the price, of this
hay delivered is said to be about
41 per ton. Others having hay
In sel have, not been anxious to
put the hay onto the market, feel
ing that tho sen-son is now ti oaring
when all stock will have to bo fed,
and that the price of hay is due
for a raise. Something which all
farmers have been waiting for in
all Hues of produce.

A SURPRISING FACT, for which there is no satisfac
tory explanation, is the difference in coals from mines
operating in the same district.
It often happens that mines working side by side in
the same seam will produce coals varying widely in
burning and slotting qtialilies, percentage of ash and
amount and character of impurities.
