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.

"The Timber)oagu-scheda!o open
ed List Sunday with Tennant defeat
ing Pelican Bay 9 t.) 5 and Algoma
defeating Lamm's 26 to 5. 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. '
The team managers all report that
It - has been difficult to work up
baseball enthusiasm, but beliove that
now that the league U under way
and that some excitement has been
aroused that It will be easier to
