Description

Image Description: “According to the Industrial Report on Commercial Woods of the Pacific Northwest by the Portland Chamber of Commerce in 1926, the Pacific Northwest has a stand of 420,874,000,000 board feet of Douglas fir. More than half of this is in Oregon.

Other important commercial woods in Oregon are Western white Pine. Yellow Pine, hemlock, red cedar, and Sitka spruce. In the southwestern part of the state Port Orford cedar stands to the amount of two billion feet. In 1925, Oregon mills turned out ninety million feet of Port Orford cedar which is used largely for battery insulators, wings of aeroplanes, boats, furniture, etc. The mills of the five states of the Pacific Northwest produced eight billion feet of lumber from Douglas fir in the same time”
