Sugar Maple 

 Eight or more species of maple grow naturally in the United 

 States, nearly every state having at least one. They range from the 

 Atlantic to the Pacific, and occur some hundreds of miles northward 

 in Canada. The largest production of lumber is in Michigan, Wis- 

 consin, New York, West Virginia, and Pennsylvania. Michigan has 

 a larger cut than any other state, and produces nearly one-half of 

 the total. Sugar maple is the botanical name of the tree which fur- 

 nishes the wood lumbermen call hard maple. The wood is well named, 

 because it is hard, strong, and stiff. The total cut in the United States 

 of all maples in 1913 was 901,487,000 feet. Indiana's factories take 

 nearly 23,000,000 feet of hard or sugar maple a year, and about one- 

 third as much soft maple. In the usual lumber classification the soft 

 maples include all except sugar maple. The table which follows con- 

 tains statistics of sugar or hard maple only. Figures for the soft 

 maples are given in a separate table.

Beech 

 Only one species of beech grows in the forests of this country, 

 and that is found in all states east of the Mississippi river. The 

 wood is heavy, hard and strong, with white sapwood and reddish 

 heart. The wood has little figure. Users sometimes speak of white 

 beech and red beech, but both kinds come from the same tree, one 

 being the sap, the other the heart. The production of beech lumber 

 in 1913 was 365,.501,000 feet. Michigan led with nearly 24 per cent 

 of the total cut. Indiana was second with 54,827,000 feet or 15 per 

 cent of the total. Oak is the only wood cut in large quantity in the 

 state. Although three and a half times as much beech is sawed in 

 Indiana as the factories use, yet one-third of what is used is brought 

 in from other states. The largest demand in the state comes from 

 makers of boxes and crates, and chair manufacturers rank second. 

 The following table contains detailed information concerning the 

 demand for beech by different industries in Indiana.
