VIRGIN SUPERIOR FOREST
Duluth, Minn., Aug. 26.—(By the Associated Press)—Primeval forests where moose, deer and bear roam, and eagles fly, may still be found untouched by logger's axe, in parts of the Superior National forest.
Situated along the Canadian boundary line, just west of Lake Superior in Lake and Cook Counties, the National forest covers 1,250,000 acres.
Each year some mature timber is harvested, but it is all done under direction of the United States Forest Service by private companies. No more is cut than the annual growth, so the forest may be perpetuated, and much of the vast district has never heard the ring of an axe.
