'; J..-, HQ L If TD USE WASTE Wheeler-Qlmstead Manager Develops Novel Idea for, Conservation J. M. Hedford, manager of the-Wbeeler-Olmstend Lumber company, ' is a believer In the diversification of industry. Bedford is planning on purchuHing a milk cow to utilize the surplus grass around tho mill and yard, and Incidentally , furnish a quantity of fresh milk. Bedford arlmlts that the idea is not original with blm, for he work ed for Paul flunyan the year of the deep snow, when they had to put goggles and nnowshoes on Lucy, nnd turned her out to graze on the snowdrifts. He was a mere boy when be joined the camp on tho I-capiug Tuna fork of the Big Onion that year, and Paul put him to milk ing Lucy. Ever since then Manager Bedford has had the fond ambition of having a cow as good as Lucy when he got an outfit of his own to run. and now his hopes are to be realized. In the cut of Lucy and the milk ing crew, friends of J. M. Bedford will at once recognize bim as the small boy dashing toward Lucy with the empty pails swinging In his hands. ; Bedford's experience with Paul's Lucy will befc of grat value 1n--the management of the. AVheeler-Olm-stcad,' Lucy , during the .winter months. When the snow gets deep this winter, and when Lucy has de voured all tho sawdust and slabs around the mill, she will be fitted with, nnowshoes and ' goggles and turned loose on the hills to graze. Hill Horbelt is at work making the goggles .which he expects to finish by the end of this week. Next week he will start making the snowshoes. The only difficulty experienced so far is the choice of a milker. Bill Horbelt was offered the job, but Bill declared that he believed Miss Lulu Hansen would make a charming milkmaid. From rumors heard around the mill, however, it is thought that the milking of the cow will be small trouble, at least to Bed ford or tho regular milker.. Several of tho men, including Jean Cham pagne. Hap Brookfleld, and Jo i Smldlc are planning on taking their blankets and a tin cup apiece out to tho mill with them, and solve the II. C. of L. by leading he simple life with a portable dairy lunch to make living easier. The problem of bringing in the cow to milk in the morning and evening has been solved by the In ventive Mr. Brookfield. Three long blasts of tho whistle will be given at tho regular milking times, and tho cow will soon learn to gallop docily into the lower part of tho mill. M MIHUIMAN KILLHU SANDY.

The games were played on the Pelican and Algoma fields. ' The Pelican team . blew up in the first Inning, and allowed five runs to be scored by tho Tennant visitors. After that both teams played good ball for the remainder of tie game. Pelican brought the score up to five "to seven ia the eighth inning, but tbo Tennant learn poled out two more safe hits and converted them into scores, leaving the final score 9 to 5. The cne sided score of the Al-goma-Lamm game was caused by a weak pitching staff and a lack of practise. The players w;ere inex perienced, and blew up completely several tlmjs during the' game. Pelican Bay was to have played Tennant at Tennant, but were ua able to make the trip, so Tennant played them at Pelican City. Next Sunday Pelican Bay will play Algoma at Algoma, and Lamms will play Tennant at Tennant.
