The company does not board employees. Most of the 

 men are married and rent houses from the company; the 

 remainder live at the boarding cars, where room and board 

 costs 60 cents per day. Company checks are issued to em- 

 ployees, thus doing away with the necessity of keeping 

 charge accounts at the commissary. The commissary, oper 

 ated by a subsidiary branch of the lumber company, is ex- 

 pected to show a profit of 33 1-3 per cent. The company 

 has a doctor at camp and furnishes medicine for the em- 

 ployees. Single men are required to pay $1.00 a month and 

 married men $1.50 a month for a doctor and medicine fee 

 when they work 4 days or more a month. The doctor, who 

 is also the postmaster, has a small practice outside of camp. 

 An insurance company is also managed by the lumber com- 

 pany for the purpose of paying half wages to employees 

 when sick or hurt. A fee of 75 cents a month is required 

 of each employee, who has worked 4 days or more that 

 month, in order to support this. A single man's fees, there- 

 fore, amount to $1.75 a month and a married man's to $2.25,
