a discussion is going the rounds Of
the press as to the relative strength Of
vet and dry timber. We do not be.
lieye there is much to DO made ont OF
the discussion. Some kinds Of timber
are stronger when dry, while other kinds
are stronger when wet or green. It is
safe to say that all woods are harder
and less liable to bend whom dry than
when wet or green. But most hard
woods when wet will possess more ten
sile strength than when dry.
