H.M. Johnson of No. 3 township tells us that he sawed recently a poplar tree from Thomas White’s place at Caldwell & Bradword’s store a poplar tree which yielded 3,817 feet of square lumber. The stump measured 5 feet and 3 inches across, and the stump yielded 19 cuts, ranging from 10 to 12 feet long. He asks Venus is he can beat this to trot out his tree.
