LATH. 
Data on the production of lath were secured for 1915 and supply 
a gap existing in forest products statistics since 191*2. The 1915 re- 
ported lath cut was 2.715.131.000, and it is estimated that the total 
cut was 3,250.000.000. Table 83 compares the 1915 and 1912 produc-

mills reporting each year, as well as the cut for each year, is given 
fdr the principal States. Lath are mostly manufactured by large 
sawmills. In both 1915 and 1912 reports were secured from prac-
