For hauling up the logs, a f m. steel cable, about 100 feet long, is used. One end of this cable is secured to the top of the spuds. Running free on it is another block, the hook of which is provided with two 15-foot steel cables, at each end of which is a "pup," which grips the end of the log in loading. One of these jammers will load one thousand pieces a day, whereas, with the ordinary block-and-tackle method, only 350 were possible. A loading crew consists of two "senders," who attach the pups to the log and guide it over the sleigh; two "tailers," their duty being to roll.
