Italy's Lumber Supply 



David F. 'Wllber. United (States toD.siil at Genoa, Italy, has sent to this 

 country a long report on the timber resources in Italy, and prospects for 

 the future. Speaking of the timber trade before the war, the report says : 



About 75 per cent of the rough, round, or hewn lumber came from 

 Austria, and the rest from across the Adriatic. Of the sawed lumber 80 

 per cent came from Austria, 12 per cent from the United States, and the 

 rest from Russia, Roumauia, etc. Seven-ninths of the wood pulp came 

 from Germany and Austria, the rest from Norway and other countries. 

 Three-fourtlis of the barrel staves came from the United States and one- 

 fourth from Austria. During the years 1915-1917 the round or hewn 

 lumber imported came principally (almost four-fifths) from Switzerland, ■ 

 the rest from France, etc. ; more than one-half of the sawed lumber came 

 from Switzerland and two-sevenths from the United States. About one- 

 half of the wood pulp was imported from Sweden and one-third from 

 Norway.

 is being taken out here at present, mostly for small structures, which 

 were held up all during the war period. The high labor and material costs 

 do not appear to be checking operations.
