LOGGING IN THE DOUGLAS FIR REGION. 237 
(4) Figures 78, 79, and. 80 show another type of two-poke log 
imloader. The two arms with this method, however, engage the 
load at the same time. Gravity is used to pull the arms into posi- 
tion to engage the load of logs. A line fastened to the arms leads 
through a block hung to a pile, thence through a block at the top of 
the pile. To the free end of this line a weight is attached. It is 
thought that the drawings are self-explanatory, making comments 
dealing with the construction and operation of the device unneces- 
sary. The machine is said to unload one car of logs per minute 
under favorable conditions. In one case, with this device, cars were 
unloaded at the rate of one car every 3 minutes. 
The total cost of making and installing this device depends on the 
location, ranging from $700 to $1,000. The bill of material is ap- 
proximately as follows:
