improvements in lumber drying research conducted by the forest pro ducts laboratories of the deportment of mines and resources ottawa and sim ilar organisations in other countries have played an important part in improving lumber drying the drying of lumber for different purposes and for export markets is one of the most highly scien tific processes in the manufacture of lumber in recent years the demands of different markets have been studied and great advances have been made particularly notable have been the im provements in the design and operatioirj of lumber drykilns in which tempera ture humidity ventilation and circula tion of ah are aoturatcely controlled and degrade due to warping and check ing may be practically eliminated a drying treatment must be worked out for each species as not two kinds of timber contain the some amount of moisture for example a thousand feet of canadian yellow birch when freshly sawn weighs about 4700 pounds of which about 3000 pounds is water when this wood is dried for use such as fur niture the 2000 pounds of water is re duced to about ltlo pounds some species contain even higher proportions of water and some much lower proportions douglas fir a particularly dry wood in the standing tree contains only about 000 pounds of water per thousand feet far commercial use it is not neces sary or desirable to remove all water for if this were done- the lumber would take up moisture from the surrounding air in order that wood used for furni ture and other purposes may not shrink or expand unduly it is necessary that the wood be dried to the proper degree if the drying is not done carefully losses of twenty per cent or more of the value of lumber may result- from checking warping and bowing in a yearns opera tions these losses may amount to in canada from five to ten million dollars if seasoning conditions are not favorable the requisite amount of drying varies greatly in different countries depending an whether the climate is as a rule dry or humid potatoes it elicioua flavor iwv new home grown t i lts good size v2 d tomatoes delirious slicing lbs uqme grown 11- outdoor 11c stock up for holiday
