TIBER THE
CUT LAST YEAR LARGER THAN
IN 1928; A EXPECT GOOD
VOLUME IN 1930
The prospects for the timber in
dustry in 1930 are excellent, accord
ing to a preview of trade issued
from district headquarters of the
U. S. Forest Service. D o- j
mestic conditions are favorable to
the industry and the demand for
lumber and timber, from all indica
tions, will be even larger than last
year.
This year, also, is expected to be
of importance in the pulp and pa- !
| per development program. On the j
j whole, the forests of Alaska should \
make considerable development!
progress in 1930.
MAKES SLIGHT GAIN
The timber cut from the National
Forests of Alaska during the calen- !
dar year 1929 was 42.947.000 feet.
This was about six percent more
than in 1928, but is materially un
der the average annual cut for the
proceeding five-year period. Devel- j
opment of the tie business was one
jOf the features of the industry for I
the year. Southeast Alaska is now I
furnishing many of the ties used ]
on the Alaska Railroad. About 75,
000 were supplied in 1929, and con
tracts have been placed for 1930 for
100,000 standard and 20,000 narrow j
gauge ties. ;
Most of the Southeastern Alaska J
sawmills had excellent results last j
year. The Juneau Lumber Mills’ ji
cut for 1929 was 8,500,000 board feet, j
This was divided into one-quarter |
hemlock and the remainder spruce.
It exported about 250,000 board feetj
of clear spruce to Seattle.
OUTLOOK IS EXCELLENT
All of the mills are preparing for!
an unusually good year in 1930. The 1
salmon canning industry, reported S
to be in sound financial shape, is
looking forward to a successful sea
son in 1930. This will be reflect
ed in the timber industry which
i supplies logs for traps and box
shooks and other lumber for the
‘salmon packers. The tendency of
late years has been from the driven
I to the floating traps. The latter
use the largest spruce logs obtaina- -
ble and there has been a marked
increase in the demand for this
class of material.
