APPORTIONMENT OF WOODS AMONG 



INDUSTRIES. 



Of the twenty-seven woods reported by Florida manu- 

 facturers, and listed in Table 10, ten are used by only 

 one industry each, and only one in all the industries. Cy- 

 press is that one, and as far as Florida is concerned, it is 

 the universal wood. The makers of veTiicles use the 

 smallest quantity, the planing mills the most. Some of 

 the industries take woods because they are cheap, others 

 because of ^particular propertieis deBired. Boxes and 

 crates afiford an instance of the first kind, vehicles of the 

 second. Certain boxes mako exacting demands upon lum- 

 ber, generally whatever is convenient and cheap is used.
