Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Look at Black Walnut Timber Resources and Industries As colonists moved westward from the Seaboard States into the Central States, they found black walnut even more plentiful. Trees were reported up to 6 feet in diameter, and 150 feet tall. The wood was so clear and easy to split, and so durable, that it was used extensively for fence rails. When Abe Lincoln was splitting fence rails, he probably split up many a walnut tree. The wood was used for building cabins, and later for trim in fine homes. Walnut has always been the preferred wood for gunstocks. Pennsylvania gunsmiths used it for the long rifles that became famous in the wars with the Indians and the British. During the Civil War, and later during World War I and World War II, the demand for walnut for gunstocks was so great that it put a heavy drain on the resource of this timber. The major use for black walnut today, both at home and abroad, is in furniture manufacture. One main mark of walnut's distinction is that many other fine woods are stained to make them look like walnut. Walnut wood ranging from rich dark browns to pleasing lighter browns can be finished without stain. Under a good finish, the grain gives the wood those ineffable highlights, chang ing with the light and the angle of view, that few other woods possess. American black walnut now is in strong demand in both American and foreign markets. The sharply expanding foreign market and the steady domestic market have raised questions as to the adequacy of the present and future supplies of black walnut timber. As a result, numerous measures to increase or sustain the supply have been taken. These include the establishment of a quota on the export of walnut logs and bolts, requests that the domestic veneer industry cut thinner veneers, and expanded re search and extension work to encourage walnut culture.

This book was released on 2018-09-28 with total page 746 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Timber Resources for America's Future The report of the Timber Resource Review is in the nature of a State-of - the-union message by the Forest Service on our national timber supplies. This comprehensive appraisal of the timber situation in the United States was started early in 1952. About a year and a half was devoted to planning the project; a year to field surveys and collection of data; a year to compila tion, interpretation, and preparation of the pre liminary report; and another year and a half to review and revision of the preliminary report and preparation of this final report. The Timber Resource Review is the latest in a series of overall timber appraisals in which the Forest Service has shared. The most recent one prior to this study was in 1945. One of the unique features of the present undertaking is that it was planned and executed in the field with the wide spread collaboration of a great number of States, forest industries, and individuals. Although this has engendered some delays, they have been more than offset by better planning, by more intensive surveys than the Forest Service could have under taken by itself, and it is hoped by more widespread understanding and acceptance of the findings.
