Loggers and mill men will be interested in the ad- vertisement in this issue of the A. Sanford Logging Tool Company, Oshkosh, Wis., who manufacture the largest and most complete line of lumbermen's tools and specialties in the United States. For fifty years this firm has made a specialty of supplying the lumbermen with the best tools that good material and experienced mechanics could produce—their aim has always been and still is, to make "better tools" than any other manufacturer. The Sanford Logging Tool Company have just erect- ed a mammoth fire-proof plant consisting of three large buildings constructed of stone, brick and steel, and equipped with modern and up-to-date machinery, giving them the largest and most up-to-date plant of the kind in the world. They issue an illustrated cata- logue, which is free for the asking, showing their com- plete line, consisting of cant hooks, peavies, pike poles, timber carriers, skidding tongs, chain hooks, cold shuts, saw and axe wedges, logging dogs, log stamps, wagon woods and irons, car movers, lumber rollers, timber dollies, lumber carts and other labor sav- ing tools for lumbermen too numerous to enumerate here. A RUSSIAN MINE OF OAK. A Russian timber dealer is said to have discovered a valuable mine of oak in a river ol South Russia, it being in layers 3 or 4 feet deep, scattered over 150 square miles, and its most striking feature is its variety of colors, supposed to be due to the variegated soil of the river bottom. No fewer than 12 shades of pink, blue, yellow and brown have been noted, each log having its own uniform shade. The logs taken out have ranged from 40 to 200 feet in length and from 15 to 20 inches in diameter, and it is estimated that more than 150,000, averaging 70 feet, remain. OSBORNE & CLARK
