The mill shot up in the air forty feet and down forty feet five hundred times each second. Lumber tumbled over the green chain faster than fifty graders could mark it. Slabs tumbled from the conveyor chain so fast that the entire state of South Dakota was covered before the astonished Mr. Bunyan could set fire to the slab pile. " The men were made rather sea sick at first by the rapid up and down motion, but they soon became accustomed to it, and the tie output was remarkable. The only mistake that Mr. Hunter made in the design of this mill was in the smokestacks.
