How To Buy
Fuel Wood
By VIVIAN BROWN
ZAP NeWsfeatures Writer\

At the first chill in the air.
when you scurry to call your fuel
dealer, some additional knowledge
on how to buy wood might be. Of
help.
According to foresters of the
U. S. Department Of Agriculture,
the standard cord of fuel wood is
four feet wide, four feet high and
eight feet long, or 1913 cubic feet.
In selling wood, however, diff
ferent parts of the country have
different practices. In Michigan
wood sells by the standard cord,
in Kentucky by the rick or face
cord, which measures less than
four feet wide. In some parts Of
New York City, wood sells by the
stick while in other parts it sells
by the boxful.
Seasoned wood burns better and
gives more heat than green wood,
and does not leave sticky creo-
sote in the chimney. Woods that
give the most heat for their weight
are hickory, oak, beech, sweet
birch, hard maple, rock elm, locust
and long leaf pine. Some people
prefer a mixture of hard and soft
wood which combines the advan-
tages of quick and hot, as well as
long lasting heat.
To get the most solid wood for
the cord or other selling unit,
foresters offer the following tips:
Smooth straight sticks stack
more closely than those with
crooks, stubs of branches or forks
which leave more air space in the
pile.
A cord of soft wood, because il
crowns smoother and straighter
usually contains about 3 per cent
more wood than hard wood.
Split wood burns more easily
but does not stack as closely as
the round logs before splitting
Hence the woodsmans saying that
cord of wood grows" after
splitting.
There is another old saying that
a cord of long sticks "shinks'
when cut into shorter lengths.
This is because short sticks pack
more closely, and their crooks
and irregularities have less effect
on the pile than those o. long
sticks.
Thick sticks also pack with less
air space than thin sticks. Season.
ed wood contains more solid wood
and less moisture than green wood.
