All strips should be narrow and at least three-fourths of an inch, but preferably 1 inch, in thickness and should be thoroughly seasoned or given some antiseptic treatment. HANDLING GREEN DIMENSION, SAWED, OR TURNED STOCK IN TRANSIT. If it becomes necessary to ship green dimension, sawed, or turned stock and planks during the late spring and summer months, atten- tion must be paid to the cleanliness and ventilation of such material while in Cattle, vegetable, or ventilated box cars which have been previously cleaned are to be preferred for small stock. In ventilated box cars the end doors should be cleated open. If only box cars of the ordinary type are available, the ma- terial should be piled according to methods similar to the one shown in figure 22. In the case of spokes and sawed billets, a cross- piled foundation, four to six courses high, is recommended in addition to the directions given (figs. 23 and 24). When doors of box cars are loosely boarded up (fig. 25) or cleated open (figs. 9 and 22), it is recommended that they be spiked, that the bill of lading bear an indorsement to the effect that the doors were left open and cleated at the request of the shipper, and finally that.
