cord Of four foot wood. with sticks six
inches in diameter, the chip loss is
from 10 S per cent. and OF course the
shorter the sticks are cut the greater
the loss II the wood is sawed the
sawdust loss is scarcely the half OF
/ per cent.
The difference due to spaces between
the sticks Of course depends very much
on the shape and size of the sticks
Straight. smooth sticks lie close to-
gether. and a cord contains more wood
and less air. For given lengths sticks
OF softwOods are usually strafghter
and smoother, and when stacked lie
closer together But whatever the
kind. cords Of long sticks are pretty
sure 10 contain more empty space than
cords made Of short pieces. Likewise
cords OF split wood contain less than
cords OF round sticks. The finer the
wood is split the more it makes. Hence
wood dealers are often willing to sell
kindlings. all sawed and split. for the
same price per cord as unsplit wood.
They get back the cost of labor in the
increased bulk.
WHAT A CORD CONTAINS
A cord (12S cubic feet) OF foot
hardwood usually contains about 80
cubic feet OF solid wood; cord Of 3
foot wood avera ges SS14 cubic feet; Of
> foot wood. 81 feet, and of l foot
wood. IS feet. The conifers, soft
woods. contain 80 to 90 cubic feet.
Thus the purchaser receives on an
average about two-thirds of cord of
real wood and one-third of a cord Of
spaces.
In some countries wood is bought by
weight, and the buyer comes more
nearly getting what he bargains for,
but even then he may miss it il he re-
ceives green wood when he wants dry.
According TO timber testing engineers
Of the United States forest service,
wood may lose half or more of its
green weight in seasoning. Cedar for
lead pencils is bought by weight in
this country. The pieces are so small
and OF such irregular size that they
can not conveniently be stacked and
measured as cordwood.
The bulk Of nearly all woods de-
creases as seasoning goes on. A hun
dred cords green viii make from SO to
ss cords when dry. This is a factor of
no small Importance TO dealers who
handle large quantities..
WOodlot owners and farmers who
have small forest tracts from which
they expect TO sell cordwood are no
less interested than contractors who
buy and sell large quantities. 1t will
stand them in hand TO know how much
difference il makes whether wood is
cut long or short, chopped or sawed,
whether the sticks are round or split
whether large or small, and whether
the measurements are TO be made while
the wood is green or after il is sea-
sOned.

when a Cord of Wood
Is Not a Cord
How the Measurements Vary If the Wood Is
Long, Short or Green
when IS cord not a cord?

When is cord not a cord?
To the farmer harvesting his small
woodlot and TO the man laying in logs
FOR the large fireplace OF his country
or seaside home; 20 the paper manu-
facturer buying pulpwood and TO the
proprietor OF the ordinary cisy wood
Tard-to all OF these men this question
has an important dollars and cents
meaning.
Queer TO say, and contrary to the
belief OF most people, there are many
times when a cord is less than a cord.
and many conditions when il IS more.
School arithmetcs say that a cord OF
wood is 12S feet. or the contents OF a
pile eight feet long. four feet high and
four feet wide. Wood is marketed on
this basis A pile whose length,
breadth and height multiplied together
gives this number OF cubic feet fills

the sticks are long or short, straight
or crooked. round or split unless there

He would have lost in the first place

loss would have resulted from a great

due 10 the fact that short sticks lie
closer together than large.
Measurements and experimental
tests have been made to ascertain ex-
actly how much actual wood is in
cords Of different lengths. sizes, shapes
and species.

HAMMOND TO QUENCH

Great Harness Meet Planned
For Next Sunday

one of the greatest harness horse
meets ever held in this section of the
state will take place at Ingleside track
next Sunday afternoon under the aus
pices OF the San Francisco driving
club. President Thomas H. Williams
of the California jockey club has do
mated the use of the track, and a big
gang of workmen is engaged in get
ting it into shape for the important
harness contests
IL is expected that every classy
trotter and PAGER within a radius of
many miles of San Francisco will be
seen in action on that day. Already
the entries are coming in so rapidly
that the promoters fear THAI they will
be forced to put on one or two more
races than they originally intended.
If the track is in good condition,
there is no doubt that several records
VIII be in danger.

FASHION IN TOMATOES
RUNS TO SMALL SIZE
High Quality Now Considered
the First Essential

There is a wide difference between
tomato culture OF the present day and
20 years ago. The fashion has changed
from mere individual size TO that Of
more economic and less vulgar proper
fiOns. II comes well within the mem
ory that a score or more OF years ago
there was craze for the largest posi-
bic size. apart altogether from culinary
or dessert use. Fruits of two pounds
and over We're the ambition Of the en-
fbusiast This has now changed TO an
EVERYDAY demand for medium sized
tomatoes. though even now II is OBJ
served that Judges sometimes favor
large samples at horticultural shows.
For culinary purposes, says the Car
deners' Magazine, high quality, COM
bIned with moderate size, Is the chief
essential and properly so.
