DREDGE AFTER ROCK

Remaining In the Iroquois River West of Town. The Sternberg dredge, having finished the Howe ditch and moved down to the river again, was started up stream Wednesday to, come up and take out the remainder of the rock near the Stott Grant place west of town. When this rock is taken out the Iroquois ditch contract will be completed. There was originally some 1,200 feet of rock to take out near the Graht place, but the most of this was removed last summer, and there is only some 400 feet yet to remove, and that has been drilled and blasted ready for the dredge to lift out.
