make interesting reading at the pre
sent time of excitement,over timber
claims: The timber excitement-is
at its height. Many parties in Al
bany have recently sold to eastern
capitalists for sums ranging from
$1,500 to $1,600, the former price
being about the average. Now
comes another eastern firm and of
fers $2,400 per claim, provided that
20 claims can be secured that will
cruise 2,000,000 feet per claim.
This will be extremely difficult to
do, as a very small per cent of the

general average per claim being a
bout 1,750,000.
