The Organization of the Lumber Industry by Wilson Compton Pdf
Excerpt from The Organization of the Lumber Industry: With Special Reference to the Influences Determining the Prices of Lumber in the United States Sawmills therefore use as raw material a natural product the total supply Of which is known, inconvenient Of transportation and originating in sources nearby. Mills have been located with reference to cheap log supply rather than to convenience in marketing their product.9 The steadily increasing relative exhaustion of the raw material Of lumber manufacture is attested by the fact that one-half Of the original stand of merchantable virgin timber in continental United States has been consumed and that the present rate of total annual growth is about one-third of that of the annual cut.

The Lumber Industry and Its Workers (Classic Reprint) by Industrial Workers of the World Pdf
Excerpt from The Lumber Industry and Its Workers In Agriculture the farmer must have lumber to build his dwelling house, barn, granaries, silos, etc. To fence his fields he must have wooden posts; often the entire fence is made of wood. He picks his fruit from a wooden ladder, packs it in wooden boxes, with wood pulp paper, and hauls it to the railroad in a wooden wagon. Wood forms a part of all agricultural tools, implements and machinery. Late statistics show that the present demand for wood for farm implements exceeds feet a year, and if the wood that goes into agricultural hand tools were added the total would probably exceed feet. In the Mining Industry wood is used to timber the mines to prevent them from caving in. Wooden ties support the tracks in and around the mines. Wooden cars transport the coal or ore from the working to the shaft. Shaft houses and other build ings around the mines are built wholly or partly of lumber. In coal mining, timber forms the principal part of tipples, washers, etc. Wood forms part of some of the mining tools and machin ery. Without lumber it would be practically impossible to carry on mining. In the Construction Industry lumber is one of the principal raw materials. Even when the main part of a building is of some other material (such as brick, stone, steel or concrete) lumber is used for floors, ceilings, laths, window frames, doors, and in many other ways. On buildings lumber is used for stag ing. On concrete work to construct the forms, and for temporary supports. On railroad and general construction work timber is used for bridge building, for culverts, for piling, railroad ties, etc. Wood forms an important part of the machinery of con struction, such as derricks, steam shovels, dump cars and the like. Most of the tools used in this industry are part wood. Lumber is used to build the camps which shelter the men and animals employed. If the supply of lumber were cut off it would only be a short time before the entire building industry would be forced to shut down. The Transportation Industry is literally supported by wood. The miles of railroad track in the United States rest on wooden ties. It is estimated that the railroad and electric lines of the country use approximately one hundred and twenty mill ion ties every year. The vast network of telegraph and tele phone wires that covers the country is upheld by wooden poles. By far the greater part of the rolling stock is built of lumber.

Not illustrated. 1906 edition. Excerpt: ...was purchased by J. M. Hastings and associates, of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Lewis Miller, a large owner of lumber mills in Scotland and Sweden, finding that his forests in the latter country were becoming exhausted, turned his attention toward British America in 1900. He purchased extensive forests near the center of Newfoundland and at Glenwood and Red Indian Lake in that colony he built large mills. Upon the receipt of a tempting offer from an American syndicate in 1903, he sold out his Newfoundland interests. In October of the same year he transferred his operations to Nova Scotia, where he purchased the properties of the Dominion Lumber Company, comprising a mill at Ingram Docks, twenty-five miles from Halifax, and 80,000 acres of timber lands. He began operations in June, 1904, and manufactures extensively for the British market. Mr. Miller was born in 1848 at Crieff, Perthshire, Scotland. The St. Croix Lumber Company, of Hartville, Nova Scotia, was incorporated in December, 1903. The concern began operations by purchasing the mills and limits of T. G. McMullen, of Hartville. The limits comprise 30,000 acres of first class timber lands, heavily covered with pine, spruce, hemlock and birch. David McPherson, the president of the company, was born in Shelburne County, Nova Scotia, in 1834, of Scotch parents. On attaining the age of manhood he went to Halifax and began work as a shipbuilder, soon building up a large trade in the construction of wooden ships, which he owns and runs to this day. At the age of thirty-five he became interested in public affairs, and was shortly afterward elected to the city council of Halifax. Since then he has twice been elected mayor--1892-8. In 1898 he entered the Provincial House and soon distinguished...

Wood-Using Industries of Connecticut (Classic Reprint) by Albert H. Pierson Pdf
Excerpt from Wood-Using Industries of Connecticut Connecticut is one of the most densely populated states of the Union. Its square miles are occupied by over a million inhabitants. A very large percentage of its people reside within two score manufacturing centers and depend directly upon indus trial employment for a livelihood. The various industries include nearly factories, with an invested capital of more than a third of a billion dollars, an annual output worth a like sum, and a payroll of some millions. A considerable number of these factories convert the raw material of the forest into finished products. The report of the lumber cut of the United States in 1910, prepared by the Bureau of the Census in coopera tion with the Forest Service, United States Department of Agri culture, shows that the Connecticut sawmills cut over board feet in that year. Part of the lumber made'in the State is shipped away, and of the total domestic consumption probably one-fourth IS utilized In rough lumber and In general construction. The total consumed by the Connecticut wood -using industries in 1910, including lumber purchased from other states, amounted to 110 feet. The amount of wood taken from the forests in forms other than lumber has been only roughly estimated, but the quantity of lumber annually milled in Connecticut has been determined for some years. This is the first attempt to follow the lumber from the sawmill through the factories. The information here presented shows the relations between the wood - using industries of Connecticut and her forests. It also shows to what extent the State's native resources are drawn upon to meet home requirements, and to what extent manufacturers draw from outside. This report is intended to answer the question of what becomes Of the seventy-two or seventy-three million feet of rough lum ber that are used each year in Connecticut's wood - using factories. It also discusses properties of the various woods that fit them for use in certain industries and the products made from these woods. It gives the average cost of lumber delivered at the factory, both home - grown and shipped - in material. The prices given, it must be remembered, are not market prices, but are merely an average computed from many different grades and forms of each kind of wood reported.

The Timber Industries of Kentucky (Classic Reprint) by James T. Bones Pdf
Excerpt from The Timber Industries of Kentucky This report for the most part deals with statistics for two years: 1974, the calendar year of the current timber-industry survey; and 1969, the calendar year of the previous complete can vass. The reader is reminded that these years may, or may not, be representative for the various Kentucky timber industries covered in this report. When documented production statistics were available for individual timber products for previous or intervening years, they were included for comparative purposes. Long-term production trends will be forthcoming from repeated surveys in the future. Until a data base is built up over time, the reader is cautioned to use the current statistics prudently.

The Hardwood Distillation Industry in New York, Vol. 1 (Classic Reprint) by Nelson C. Brown Pdf
Excerpt from The Hardwood Distillation Industry in New York, Vol. 1 In writing the report, the purpose throughout has been to make the explanations as simple and clear as possible, using as few technical and involved terms as are consistent and in many instances engaging in reiteration that may at times seem unnecessary. The industry is closely identified with certain aspects of chemistry, but the author has purposely avoided a discussion of chemical changes that take place in the distillation of wood since the intent has been to make the report valuable to the wood producer and user in New York State rather than to those engaged directly in the work of wood distillation. In the conduct of the investigation form letters were sent to every wood distillation plant in the State to obtain information upon woods used, equipment, methods and costs, daily and annual capacities and yields in charcoal, wood alcohol and acetate of lime. Personal visits have also been made to most of the twenty-five plants in New York State as well as several in other states and information has been checked up by a number of those prominent in the industry.
