(reiiriiiti-d with corrections from liiillctiu 6) SAWING, STOltlNtx, AND SEASONING. On arrival of the logs iu St. Louis they were, sent to a sawmill and cut into sticks, as shown in Figs^ 1 to i. In all cases tlie arrangements shown in Figs. 1 and 2 were used, except when a detailed study of the tind)er iu all parts of the cross-section of the log was intended. A few of the perfect logs of each species were cut up into small sticks, as shown iu Figs. 3 and 1. The l(jgs tested for determining the effects of extracting the turi)entine from the Southern pitch ])ines were all cut into small sticks. In all cases a " small stick" is nominally 4 inches square, l)ut when dressed down for testing may be as small as Si inches square. The "large sticks" vary from 0 by 12 to 8 by 1(5 inches in cross-secti<in. All logs varied from V2 to 18 feet in length. They all had a north and south diametral line, together with the number of the tree and of the log plainly marked on their larger or lower Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original United States.
