Some of these trees were ten feet iu diameter, but the saw .crews dragged shavings cut with bark on both edges. The engine Paul used on his logging train was so big that ever time the driver ( tinned around it was pay day. Paul had a steam shovel by the cook house to clear away the eg; shells when the camp got going real good. Ills logging stock consisted of the big Blue Ox, llabo and his saddle horse. Paul never kuew bow much his saddle horse weighed, for every time he tried to weigh him tho scales broke, and by the time he got a pair of scales that would, hare hold him then, the horse had gain ed a hundred tons or so. .

NOVEL TRY-OUT IS GIVEN TO JSTAR CAR I'icrMiii nnd Sou- (.'citing Lincoln .Mileage from Star Tour. ing-- Cur . R. C. and Charles Pierson, ot the Lamm Lutuber company,' recently purchased a Star touring car, and adopted an unusual method ot breaking tho machine in. Thoy Jacked up the rear whocls, set the speed so thut the speedometer reg istered twenty miles an hour, and let iho car go until it registered five hundred miles. It is thought thai tho Piersons got tho Idea fur this method from an advertisement appearing roccntly in tho Saturday Evening Post, where a Lincoln car was shown having . Its tryout On a stationary track. Doubtless the Piersons thought to Ltncolinze their Slnr by this treatment. Whothor c-r not they have succeeded Is still In doubt, although wo undcrsund that the Star Is making Lincoln mileage on gasoline, and has blown out four tires. However, it uses no oil.
