THE HARDWOOD INDUSTRIES 



Nearly all wood-using industries 

 employ botli liard and soft woods. 

 In some of tliem tlie former prevail 

 and in otliers tlie latter. Few in- 

 dustries use either liardwoods or 

 softwoods e.xclusive!y. Tliere are a 

 number of industries in Chicago 

 which employ hardwoods in excess 

 of softwoods, and for that reason 

 they may be designated as hardwood 

 industries. Following is a partial 

 list of such, with the amount of 

 woods of all kinds used annually by 

 each of them.

 Machine posts.... 428,000 



Meat blocks 300,000 



Novelties and toys 290,000 

 The foregoing industries, several 

 of which are large, draw supplies 

 from all the hardwood regions of 

 the country and afford what is per- 

 haps the best market in the world 

 for such material. The handling 

 and the manufacturing of such large 

 'quantities of lumber in a single city 

 creates an enormous volume of 

 business. 



Constant streams of rough lum- 

 ber enter Chicago from all points 

 of the compass, and constant 

 streams of manufactured products 

 go out to all points of the country.
