Pitch Pine (Pinus rigida). 

 Pitch pine furnishes the largest amount of yellow pine lumber that is 

 cut in Pennsylvania. The tree has a large proportion of sapwood and is de- 

 cidedly resinous. It grows scatteringly throughout the State and is more 

 extensively used than the total in Table 7 would indicate, owing to the 

 fact that after it is cut into lumber it is difficult for the manufacturer to 

 identify it. The wood is very brittle, of medium weight, hard, coarse 

 grained, weak, stiff, durable, and does not hold paint. Its principal use in 

 Pennsylvania for manufacturing is for boxes and crates, though it meets a 

 wider demand for structural work and for other uses where rough timber is 

 required without further manufacture.
