Excerpt from Forest Products: Lumber, Lath, and Shingles, 1912, Compiled in Cooperation With Department of Agriculture: Forest Service, Henry S. Graves, Forester, Issued December 30, 1913 The greater part of the lumber produced goes into buildings and rough construction, about one-tenth into packing boxes, crates, etc., and much smaller proportions into car construction, furniture, vehi cles, and a great variety of other uses. There is a strong tendency toward more permanent construction in building and toward the use of materials other than wood in many other industries, and the in creasing competition of other materials has doubtless operated to restrict the demand for lumber and to retard the general rise in its price which might be expected to accompany the gradual exhaustion of the available timber supply. During 1907, and especially in the earlier part of that year, the volume of building operations under way was unprecedented, and despite the fact that the business depression which commenced in that year and extended through 1908 affected building operations during the closing months of 1907, lumber mill Operators regarded the situation as but temporary and reduced output did not follow until the continued unfavorable conditions of 1908 destroyed hope of an early improvement. In fact, the production of lumber in 1907 was larger than that reported for any other year except the census year 1909, for which the canvass was more complete, so that the figures are not strictly comparable. The production of 1908, how ever, was less by 7 billion feet, or per cent, than that of 1907. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
