Record Four Days with Clyde Skidder A record four days skidding was recently completed by the "Star" crew of the Industrial Lumber Co. of Marionville, La. The total number of logs skidded in the four days was 4,325, contain- ing 865,000 feet, as follows: March 30th 1000 logs 200,000 feet April 1st -1000 logs 200,000 feet April 2nd 1003 logs 200,600 feet April 3rd 1322 logs 264,400 feet This made a daily average of 1081 logs, or 216,250 feet.

Band Saw The American Band Saw fitted up as shown in the accompanying illustrations, makes an attractive and efficient equipment. The wire guard for the up- per wheel and the closed doors for the lower elimin- ate the possibility of danger. Ball-bearings applied to both wheels insure an easy running saw—a feature which is essential in a tool of this kind. Direct connected motor with rheostat mounted on the machine itself provides an excellent method of driving a band saw. There are no belts and no mo- tion is lost, while very little power is used, in com- parison with other methods of drive. The patent weighing strain to the upper wheel, with indicator for adjusting weight to different widths of blades, relieves the operator from guess work in adjusting, and prevents saw blades from cracking or breaking. The micrometer adjustment to the table with ac- curately graduated scale insures the proper tilt in either direction—4-5 degrees to right—5 degrees to left.
