Not illustrated. 1922 Excerpt: ... and cull as 22.35 per cent. The amount of the total cubic volume of the tree taken to the mill in the form of logs, exclusive of cord-wood and pulp-wood, corresponds closely with data collected by the author which indicated that from 67 to 74.5 per cent of the total cubic content of a southern yellow pine tree reached the sawmill. LOSS OF VOLUME IN LOG CONVERSION Data secured at two sawmills in connection with a study of the grades produced from California pine, fir, and cedar indicated that the cubic volume of sound wood in the average log was distributed as shown in Table X, page 281. On the basis of the above data, it requires 138 cubic feet of lops to produce 1000 board feet of lumber, with a residue consisting of 12 cubic feet of slab-wood, 16.5 cubic feet of sawdust, 11 cubic feet of edging strips, and 3.5 cubic feet of trimmings; a total of 43 cubic feet. See A Study of the Grades of Lumber Produced from California Pine, Fir, and Cedar, by Swift S. Berry, The Timberman, March, 1918, pages 36-37. t Both milla used band saws. Material was sawed to a minimum length pf 4 feet in both mills and to a minimum width of 3 inches in Mill No. 4 and to a minimum width of 4 inches in Mill No. 5. A mill cutting 100,000 board feet of lumber per day would accumulate, therefore, at least 4300 solid cubic feet of refuse. This is regarded as a conservative figure since at Pacific Coast mills the amount of hogged refuse available for fuel is estimated at 100 cubic feet per 1000 board feet of lumber manufactured, which would equal 10,000 cubic feet of material per 100,000 board feet. The disparity between these two figures is not so great when one considers that the 43 cubic feet per 1000 board feet of sawed product represents solid wood and the 100 cubic feet represent...
