These opera- tions may be divided into the following branches: handling the logs; sawing; trimming and sizing; disposing of refuse; sorting; storing or shipping. In order that the sawmill operator may more profitably dispose of his better grade stock, a finishing mill is a necessity and in reality such a more or less completely equipped mill is always understood to be included in the general term "; The operations are so distinct, however, that it has been thought best to include the planing mill under a separate heading. In those mills which finish a large portion of their product, there is between the sawmill and planing mill a seasoning process, which * Reproduced by courtesy of the American Institute of Electrical Engineers- Continued from March 15, Canada Lumberman. we will term "; This consists of artificially drying the pro- duct before finishing it. Its object is to get the material to its ulti- mate seasoned dimensions before the final manufacturing operation. Those operators who must overcome the handicap of high freight rates secure an additional advantage in eliminating all excess weight due to moisture. Some specialty mills (shingle mills, for instance) resort to dry
