WOODS FOR cooPERAcE.
Diminishing Supply Of Hard varis-
ties Brings Into Use Softer
Growths,

The cooperage industry is one Of The
most important branches of forest uSii-
ization. According to the twentieth GEN.
sus, the annual value of the slaves.
hoops and heads made by the mills ia
ever $20,000,000. It is estimated that
more than 100000 barrels, kegs, tubs
and similar articles are manufactured
aaily in the United States.
Until a very recent date the woods
chiefly used for cooperage were tina
slow-growing hardWoods, such as oak,
elm, maple, ash, beech and birch, but
within the last few years cottonwood,
poplar, and latterly gum, have been
substituted to some extent, owing to tho
diminishing supply of the species first
exploited.
The depletion of the supply of raw
material is felt strongly by the manu-
facturer, who finds it yearly more diff
ficult to obtain good stock. This 10
especially true for white oak, since the
maker Of tight cooperage must often
refuse stock which furniture maker
would consider. f1rst-class material
Two factors have contributed to bring
about this condition-first. the de-
crease in the cooperage manufacture.
which has developed enormously in the
past quarter century; and, secoAd, the
extremely wasteful methods employed
in cutting, which have left the forest
in a deplorable condition, and often
wasted more material than was used.
Cutting for cooperage purposes Is fa-
more wasteful than in ordinary lum-
bering.
The forest service In taking up
this question aims to make its inves-
legations of practical value to the coop
erage industry and its operators. II
is planned to bring together informa-
ton regarding the supply Of raw ma
terial, and the best methods Of manu-
facture. and the Ill effects of waste

sible remedies for them. Particular
attention will also be given to q study
of the properties of woods. with the
view Of recommending substitutes
which are more abundant than the
species now used for cooperags.
