^s Several oaks in different parts of the United 



^B States are known locally as "rock oak," but 



^^ that is not the proper name of any. 



No other wood of the United States la as 

 suitable for quarter sawlns as white oak. 

 Some of the red oaks measure- lairlv well up 

 to white oak In that respect, but as a general 

 proposition they fall considerably below It.

 than locust; the heaviest Is lighter than man-
