MAKING OAK sHIvEs.
An Expensive Product Which Finds
Market In Portland.

Sheasgreen & Buxton's planning
mill is busily engaged in filling
the contract for 600 shives or pully
blocks for Multnomah county to b.
used on the cables Of the A1bina
and the Sellwood ferries. The
shives are OF oak and the specifca-
tions require that they be seven
inches thick and from 1o to 26
inches in diameter. Timber for
the work comes in by rail from
near Philomath. In the manufact-
ure of these articles oak logs are
first cut into two-foot lengths.
These are then put into lathe,
worked down to a symmetrical
form, one and one-quarter wide
grooves are chiseled and deep cuts
are made at points where the shives
are to be separated. The timber
is then given over to men who
complete the separation with
cross cut saw. When a one and
one-half inch hole is made in the
center OF the sh1ve 1t is complete.
AS the articles are finished, they
are placed in damp shavings to pre-
vent checking. Neil Newhouse is
interested in this contract and it
was obtained in competition with
six bidders. It was suggested to
the Multnomah county court, and
the suggestion is likely to be acted
upon hereafter, that it would be
better to let this contract at sea-
son when the ground is sufficiently
firm to permit oak logs, which are
plentiful in this vicinity, to be haul
ed by wagon from the hills to ship
ping points convenient to the fact
