A BLACK RIVER PINERY LUMBER CAMP
      The early prosperity of La Crosse was founded upon the lumber industry,
and particularly upon the exploitation of the Black River Pinery. This illus-
tration of a typical lumber camp reproduces one of a collection of views presented
to the La Crosse Teachers College by Mr. and Mrs. F. G. Tiffany. It represents
a camp of the Island Mill Lumber Company on the East Fork of the Black River
in the late 1880's.
