This same pack-trail, beginning at the south end near to Cottonwood Bridge on the Cariboo waggon road, suns down the Willow Ri for about 85 miles, where it forms Junction with my survey pack-trail of 1874 about one hundred miles long from Fort George to about twenty miles east of Grand Rapids on the traser River. | know well twenty miles of the trail going north from Cottonwood Bridge, having travelled the portion shown by your blue print "A" between Cotton- wood Bridge and the Willow River Landing four times in 1895 while ex~ ploring the route of the British Pacific Railway line, At the southern end I know well thirty miles of the district Timber and Logging Facilities | whom not Cover 52 |has hear the East, His Helin ; exercises. more actual Having applied to Collingwood Schrei- | Balkan rulers 0 ber, general consulting engineer to the | the hi government, and chiet engineer of the| Ort western division of the National Trans'| much thé same relation to its 98,000 continental railway, for information re- | commumicants that Pius X- does to garding the timber of the Willow Kiver | Church of Rome, t witht this one vital District, he recommended H.

Washing is a small job for any woman if she uses Fels-Naptha in cold or lukewarm water, and lets it take the place of boiling and hard rubbing." Dirt is-the home of germs. You gather them in the dust that settles on your clothes, in the mud of the streets, from coiled car seats and in many other places. You want to kill these germs in the weekly wash, or they may cause trouble. Fels-Naptha soap is a germicide. With it, boiling is mot necessary either to destroy germs or wash the clothes.

I had Indians who, were accustomed to high water. In the winter we broke a trail on the jee. and moved camp with some seven or eight teams of dogs and toboggans, by which it is known that there would be no difficulty in making proper sleigh roads "in winter for lumbering purposes. At long distances dpart a clay bluff cuts off travel on one side of the river, but there is almost always (except-in the case of the Rock Canon above) a flat on the'. opposite side. Near the mouth of the river there is not much merchantable timber. At the Bear River Canon, wher it and the Willow River come 'closé together, near the trail above referred to, there was a pack- train bridge built in 1876. It consisted of two stringers each sixty feet long covered with cross ties, and a few years ago the lindians wgre still using the stringers of that bridige to cross upon. It must have been in use -for some twenty-two years or more. In the winter we camped in about seven feet of snow (towards the latter end) that never forms crust on the surface in the timber, and could be ploughed out easily with double teams and a triangular board plough just as in the east. The climate is steady in winter; there was no thaw until the final break-up in the month of April. The white spruce of British Columbia is a fine timber.
