Excerpt from Wood-Using Industries of Virginia

In the pine region in the Southeastern part of the State there are extensive modern sawmill plants which manufacture a large portion of the lumber produced in Virginia. Besides these there are numerous small sawmills and portable mills operating on wood lots and cutting the hardwoods in the foothills and mountain regions. The census re port for 1909 showed Virginia had in active operation mills, which was a greater number than that shown by any of the other forty-eight States; Louisiana. For instance. Produced feet more than Virginia and had in Operation only 656 mills. In Arkansas, 'where the cut was almost equal to that of Virginia, there were fewer mills.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a pioneering study of wood-using industries in Virginia, conducted in 1911. Covering 48 other US states, it is part of a series of state-level studies, and one of the earliest of its kind. The author provides a detailed and comprehensive account of the different types of wood used in Virginia and their sources, and the many kinds of industries that use wood as a raw material. The book offers a unique insight into the then-current wood industry of Virginia and its connections to other states. Every kind of wood used in Virginia is discussed, along with its most common uses, with an emphasis on the kinds of jobs that wood was being used for in the state during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. One major finding of the study is the surprisingly high proportion of wood being used by manufacturers within the state, with only 45% of the total being shipped in from out-of-state sources. This level of self-sufficiency is particularly striking given the great variety of wood species used by Virginia industries. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of Virginia's forests, its industries, and the ways in which lumber was a vital part of the state's economy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
