Seasons for Telling ResinOus Timber.

In cutting timber, of all kinds, adva ntage
should be taken of the season which will
favor their duration and strength. Thus
oak and most other kinds of non-resinife-
rous trees, as far as the knowledge of prac-
tice extends, are stronger and more dura-
bic when felled in early winter, at the time
the pores contain but little sap. On the
contrary, the timber of pine, larch and
other resinous trees, cut in spring or early
summer, when the pores are filled with
resin, which is, in fact, sort of embalm-
ing, possesses greater degree of strength
and will endure longer than if cut when
the resin is absent from the wood, which
is more or less the case in autumn or win
ter.
We have no hesitation in stating, that
good heart pine, cut in spring, or early
summer, when full of resin, is fully equal
in lasting qualities to any hardwood tim
Der that can be produced, quite putting in
the shade the process of Payne, Khan, and
Burnett, from the efforts of nature being
more freely carried out than can possibly
be done by the very best exhausting en-
CINE and hydraulic presses that have yet
been made.-.4mericon .agriculfurist.
