HOLMES EUREKA

cuts anything like this amount of lumber, thereby establishing the claim of the Virginia-people to having the.world's largest white pine plant.

Naturally, the remainder of the plant is well in keeping with the great sawmill capacity. Their planer is one of the largest on earth, probably the very largest. It is equipped with twenty major planing mill machines, and resaws, not counting smaller equipment like cut-off saws, etc. Each machine is directly electrically driven.

Virginia is located 63 miles inland from Duluth, through which port it enjoys water shipping facilities and ships a tremendous amount of lumber east from there, while four railroad lines serve it in a rail distributing way.

While located in a country where the thermometer drops to 45 below zero, they operate the winter through by steam warming their log pond.

The plant covers 380 acres of land, and they operate 59 miles of railroad. Lumber is handled all over the plant by electric motor cars, and the overhead tramway system is used in the yards. The dressed sheds hold seven million feet of lumber. Their loading is all done under cover. They manufacture principally white and Norway pine, with some spruce, tamarack and poplar.

Edward Hines of Chicago is president of the company and F. E. Weyerhaeuser is treasurer. Thos. Whitten is general manager and F. N. Taylor is sales manager. The general officeq are at Virginia.

That this is one of the great sawmills of the world, there can be no doubt. Its entire equipment in power plants, logging equipment, local improvements, etc., are well in, keeping with the mill itself.

fn Resume

There are six milling plants on earth that can cut or do cut a million feet a day-Marshfield, Longview, Tacoma, Hoquiam, Bogalusa and Virginia. Marshfield, with its huge Fir mill and its smaller cedar mill, has and can cut over a million in a single shift. So can Longview, withits two big units. Tacoma and Hoquiam require three shifts to cut a million. Bogalusa and Virginia can cut a million in two ten-hour shifts.

This has been simply a hasty review of the major equipment of these sawmilli, given iersely to fit this siory.Cin later qccasions we ho'pe to give morc details aboui these great milling'institutions in these columns.

Redtscovertng Jesus

(From the Vagabond) ma5l drearn, It shines shadow and golden gleam, priestly pines.

The Jews are rediscovering Jesus, aS Ratibi Hbrrlf {gi.' tells us. Then he adds, slyly, "and so afc the Chiisti{ns."

He says that the modern Jew has little difficulty in welcoming Jesus to a place in the synagogue. He always serves as one of the prophets of Isfael,'as a great, genuine, lovlable teacher. Rabbi Levy also makes the point that prac,tically all liberal Christians are reverently engaged in sifting the chaff from the wheat, in distinguishing the faith of Jesus from the program of the Christian church.

"Will Jew become Christian, oi Christian Jew?" he asks. ,"Oh, qo. There is no such need. There is good in every faith. Every religion is divinely commissioned to serve the ,spiritual needs of men. And eve,ry church knows truth, as also it knows error. Thefe is need lor every faith. It takes trll kinds of religions to satisfy all kinds of religious needs.
