Natural Resources Bulletin.
The Natural Resources Intelligence
Service of the Department of the In-
terior at Ottawa says:
Time was In Canada when nothing
but clear white pine would be con-
sidered in building operations. White
pixie was the standard lumber for
practically all purposes, and the cut
of this universally adaptable timber
was enormous.
This demand of the market and
forest fires have had their effect upon
this favored species, however, with
the result that white pine is not as
plentiful as heretofore, and many
other varieties have had to be substi-
tuted in building construction.
Spruce has largely taken the place
of white pine. One-third of Canada's
I
lumber cut is now obtained from
spruce, while the Douglas fir'of Brit-
about1
fah Columbia furnishes 6 per
cent.
With the advance in prices of pine)
and spruce, the hemlock is finding a
larger ,market. At first only the bet-
ter grades of hemlock were saleable,
but with the increasing scarcity of the
better woods thelower grades haver
now come into use for purposes where
a higher grade lumber is not requited,
Hemlock is a fairly stiff wood but
rather splintery. It holds nails well,
and where it is kept dry or where it
is continually under water it is fairly
lasting.
The demand for lumber and the
enormous losses o: valuable species by
forest fires are graduallyforcing
cheaper and poorer grades of timber
on the market, While at present those
being used are quite satisfactory for
ordinary purposes, there can be no
question that we will continually -have
to find substitutes as our better tim-
ber:grows scarcer.
