FREDERICTON, N. 13., July 17. —Ncw Brunswick operators are now in the midst of the season's activ- ity in pulpwood, with good pro- gress ruling in all sections. Fair weather has favored the operators and peeling will be concluded around the end of August, accord- ing to present indications. .

The cut this year is approxim- ately oue hundred thousand cords. corresponding. in board-measure- wlth fifty-million feet. It is the greatest summer activity the Prov- ince has had in several years and has aided many localities where employment formerly _had been dif- ficult to obtain. The pulpwood is being absorbed by New Brunswick and Maine Mills, with a large pro- portion going to the plant of the Maine seaboard Pughsund Paper Company at Bucksport, Me.
