Book Description
Excerpt from Silvical Characteristics of Pacific Silver Fir Formerly an object of the lumberman's scorn, Pacific Silver fir now commands due respect as a commercially valuable species. Highly adaptable to the manufacture of paper pulp, the species vies with western hemlock and Douglas-fir as a leading source of pulpwood in the Pacific Northwest. Principal uses of the lumber are for fram ing and sheathing in house construction, and for box shook. The species is planted as an ornamental Shade tree in parts of eastern United States and western Europe. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
