UTILIZATION OF FIRE-kllLED
TIMBER.
Forest Reserve Furnishes Valuable
Material From Burned Areas.

Forest Reserve Furnishes Valuable
Material From Burned Areas.
Although it has been known for a
number of years that fire-killed tim
Der has considerable value in rail-
road and mining operations in Colo
RADIO, 1t has been brought out only
recently by the forest service that a
wide number of uses are open for this
timber, and that in certain respects
it has actual advantages over green
wood.
These facts are deduced from a
study OF conditions on the Pixies Peak
Forest Reserve. where the ravages OF
fire have been particularly wide
spread and destructive. In many IN
stances the burned timber Is the only
kind available at particular point
for example, in proximity to a mine
or spur of railroad. so for timbers
and ties the dead material has been
used for many years-fifteen years at
Palmer lake. seven years at F1orris-
SAINT for railroad ties. and longer than
this for mine timbers Three years
ago IL was first used for box boards
and has proved excellent. In Mar.
1905. there was sale for telephone
poles.
The species used are red fir, vel
low pine, lodgepole pine. timber pine.
range pine, pinon. Engelmann spruce,
and blue spruce. OF these. the pines.
red fir, and Engelmann spruce furnish
the bulk of the material. Time
elapsed since burning seems to make
no great difference in the value OF the
wood. except that when serious check
ing results it loses its value for box
purposes. The timber used has been
burned all the way from three to fifty
five years.
The amount OF this timber which
