as intermediate or coarse grained, moderately hard, dense, tough and 

 elastic, strong, stiff, durable, resinous, moderately stable, rather easy to 

 work, and takes paint well. It is not infrequently bought and sold as longleaf 

 pine, especially that coming from the Gulf states. The Virginia and Carolina 

 shortleaf pine is generally handled under the name North Carolina pine, 

 being a mixture of loblolly and shortleaf in the proportion of about four 

 to one.

Longleaf Pine (Pinus palustris). 

 For strength, stiffness, and durability, longleaf pine is considered superior 

 to other species of yellow pine. The distinguishing features of the wood are 

 its narrow rings and its relatively small proportion of sapwood. It is hard, 

 with fine straight grain, dense, moderately heavy, elastic, tough; splits 

 rather easily, is fairly hard to work, and does not take paint well. Nearly 

 three-fourths of all that is used in the State is consumed in car building, al- 

 though seventeen other industries reported its use in varying small amounts. 

 The most prominent among these are planing mill products, ship building, and 

 the manufacture of tanks and silos.
