Veneer Production for 1906 



During the year lihlti iiianufaeturers of 

 veneer used more wood and made more 

 veneer than in any previous year for which 

 statistics have been compiled, anil doubts 

 less more than ever before during the his- 

 tory of the industry. During that year 315 

 mills converted 329,1 8(), 000 board feet of 

 timber, log scale, into approximately 2,068,- 

 094,000 square feet of veneer. Thus every 

 board foot of timber, measured log scale, 

 furnished about six square feet of veneer, 

 according to a recent bulletin issued by the 

 Forest Service. Of the total produced near 

 ly nine-tenths was rotary cut and the re- 

 mainder either sawed or sliced. The pres- 

 ent greatly increased production of veneer 

 is due to the growing use of thin sheets of 

 wooil for many purposes other than as true 

 veneer. The term is not restricted as for- 

 merly, and used to describe only a finished 

 surface applied to a cheajier and unfinished
