ti The story is often told, when the
"tanall blacks" are bcins asse"d
around, how the well-known packer
stood at a point of vantage; and
noted r with approval that 4vry
thing, the sum total of which, once
was a nice, fat porker, was feeing
turned to profit, except one thing
the fiqueal.
..Though just a tale, it demonstrates a
truth, for the packers have found in way
to make useful everything of pig or
cattle from snout to tall. Steel, rubber,
sugar, cotton all the great fields lot en
deavor have found a way wjiereby
every shred that comes as part of ; the
raw product goes out in one form or
another to do service to humanity-; i
Lumber, of all the great Industries,
still looks for the Moses who will lead
the way and turn to profit the! great
waste of raw material that since lumber
ing began has been expensive to handle
and dispose of and which becomeal more
or a Duraen every day. ; j
ltMBER WASTAGE AFPALXI3GL
Just a few weeks ago a number of
Kasterriers were on the way to e the
Northwest beaches and so passed
through, the-yards of several great lum
ber plants. The sight of great piles of
wood going up in smoke was toil them
appalling and aS they saw the cords of
blabs and edgings ride the moving belt
-to the incinerator, they were inclined to
lay the blame to the lumbermenjj j
They Were worried over the waists of
vood but, at that, probably not half
as much as the millmen, who arei doing
the burning. The present unavoidable
waste in lumbering is something that
has worried everv lumberman. forJ could
ne flispone or everytning tnatneisaws,
or the slabs that fall off the .sides of
timbers, that ought to be good for jsome
thtr.g. Bomewhei, the business fwouid
be a Tot more interesting. . S i
The problem of waste disposal has
never .been more serious than at present,
for,, with the higher cost of; logs, and
everything that goes into lumbering,
the stuff that goes up in smoke each
day, represents always a larger and
growing part of the raw product! Ex
periments by the government's forestry
experts, by private individuafs and var
ious industries have found ways of talc
ing' off some of the' present castoff. but
they haven't begun to cope ;i with the
problem and the seriousness of lit .be
comes ever greater. ...... - j. i :
I'KKIGHT MATES HIGH l j
: ' Lumbermen, further, never have been
Messed with cheap transportation. If
It is to go East, the railroads have to
be considered, ' and if it goes ' to sea.
markets are a long way off. In jeither
event the final market will not j stand
the transportation of perfectly! good
lumber, which in many mills finally
pets into the Incinerator, because the
demand is all for the better grades, j
The problem, therefore, really has two
sides. It requires some way to dispose
of the cheaper lumber, the klnd that
ran't be shipped. The other knot Is the
disposal of the waste, such as sawdust,
t-havings and the small debris produced
In the manufacture. How much of the
oot of bringing lumber to "the) home
builder is to day absorbed bythe; waste
of the industry can only be guessed; at.
Ynit a visit to any mill will give an lm-
mediate impression that the aimount
cannot be small. ' -l-'ri ! ' .
Disposing of the waste is "not Only a
waste of raw material, but a terrific
expense. Though most mills are operat
ed by steam produced in theirs owti boil
ers, an ever present part of the plant is
a. great Incinerator, in most cases an im
posing, tower of brick and stee that
represents no small part of the j entire
mill. Burners have been built to post
more than 20 per cent of the machinery
ju.the plant, and all merely to dispose of
the waste attending the operation of
the machines. In other plants ffhe in
cinerator is not so expensive. being
merely a fireproof wall of brick or met
al behind which the material Is dumped
and, burned. In addition to the! equip
ment, ftibor, in some cases, quite A crew,
ii required to take the stuff away from
the machines and attend to Us disposal.
CITT 31 ILLS HATE MARKET I
To the city mills the problem I si not so
great, for they have a market both for
tilaba and oawdust, most of the time,
but even they have incinerators! which
are fed with waste much of the time.
One Portland mill claims to break even
on its waste, getting for it just about
what it costs to handle it. But these
mills cut small figure in the industry
as a whole. Isolated rlants or even mills
located in nuite large towns through
out the state never let the fire; in the
Incinerator die. ' j
' But., though experiments have;! been
many and the fruit quite light.- lumber
ftfen have new hopes, grounded, in pres
ent world needs. They have; watched
Industry after industry find the, way
in their own cases. ' "
i Even garbage collection and disposal
jias been known t0 pay. At, Saa Fran
Cisco a few years .ago was erected a
ilemonstration riant, operating"; only on
the refuse of the exposition grounds,
iv'hile expensive to maintain, the. gar
age collection system on .the! grounds
earned several thousand dollars produc
ing greases, acids, oils and other prod
ucts. , V. f i i -

!.V.f: ' t : " . ji
Above Top grade of lumber "cut off" which serves only to feed incin
erators because no better use has been found. Below Mountains of
sawdust from the Inman-Poulsen mill to be used for power genera
tlon "by the It. & P, Gk. Tliis hill represents 25 per cent of the
volume of the mill product. -
to get at any price. : ; The shortage of
water for 'power generation at the pres
ent hydro plants of Oregon and Wash
ington has forced the power companies
to prepare for any emergency, and ' just
south of the Hawthorne 'bridge can be
seen two great mountains of fuel all
sawdust and rolli waste that will furnish
heat, light and power to Portland this,
summer and fall. ' : ;
Passersby have watched that moun
tain grow until today it contains some
thing like 50,000 "units." " as the power
men have termed it. ' The unit" in this
case is 200 cubic feet. And all of this
mountain of wood comes from one mill
the Inman & Poulsen and represents
an .accumulation of barely six months.
In North Portland another such moun
tain is rising, composed mostly of hem
lock and spruce shavings. On the west
bank of the river, near the new plant
of the Northwestern Electric company,
risea the largest mountain of all. Yet,
these combined are not & good sized
fraction of the lumber waste that takes
place. - j . -r v
SAWDrST FOB HOMES
Off in another corner of Portland is
an experimenter who 'is going t intro
duce .sawdust and, shavings as fuel into
homes. ; having produced a briquet of
fir that burns wih the heat and glow
of hardwood. In every way it la suc
cessful and awaits its entry into the
local fuel market only upon, the devel
opment of less expensive machinery for
its production, which will make it pos
sible to have plants nearer to the mills
producing the-stuff.;
The fir briquets' are said to be in
every way equal to the gas briquets
another product of waste of an indus
try with the great advantages of clean
liness and lack of ; odor, which is the
objectionable feature in the use of gas
briquets. . . . .
Another experimenter is working on
a wall board that s will take the place
of plaster in the house, and which will
be made entirely of sawdust and shav
ings. - i
AUTO rrElFBOM SAWDUST
But, great ks are these possibilities,
still others look" for the greatest good
to come through the making of auto
mobile fuel from sawdust.
That' the' motor car industry will find
something on which to propel Itself
other than gasoline is now a certainty.
In a recent article in the Saturday Eve
ning Post was given an account of the
present search for cheap alcohol as the
logical automobile; fuel. The motors
of today will burn it straight, under
proper conditions or take with a mix
ture of gasoline. It can -be .produced
in dosens of ways, from sugar waste,
from vegetable waste and from, what
the article did not dwell upon, lumber
waste. j .
EXPERIMENTS WITH ALCOHOL
Some years ago the engineers of the
Ford company made, some experiments
with alcohol and alcohol production that
were most, promising. The government,
has announced at different times the
results of alcohOl production from lum
ber, and not so many years ago a dis
tillery oh Fuget Sound made alcohol
from wood waste. ! ::' i . ; , '
Government matter on 'the. subject
states that fir will ! produce about 20
gallons of alcohol to the ton.' The pro
cess is fairly expensive, but . estimates
covering the subject stated that at that
time the cost of production should not
be over It cents per gallon. If it were
twice o throe times that much, its pos
sibilities would, nevertheless, be worth
considering. . - 1 :, '
Estimating the waste at -25 per. cent
of the cut or capacity, it would not be
hard to figure the amount of automo
bile fuel that the j m ilia of the North
west could' furnish when motors go on
an alcohol ration, t ' , ,
Other experimenters Tiaye. worked for
the production of cheap pirrehments from
the fir mill waste, bat their measure
of success has not "beeu great.'
LUMBER TOO GOOD TO BURS
! These efforts deal with the absolute
waste. Of almost equal importance is
disposal' of the lumber that is not good
enough to ship, but seems too good to
burn.
" The situation is better explained by
the actual conditions of last w-inter,
when fir flooring hit the sky.- The de
mand was terrific in spUe of the price.
A fir log makes ju6t so much flooring
of the best gradevery little in most
lugs. VJien a. millman cuts the log. so
much" makes flooring, so much makes
good siding, some of it makes "dimen
sion" or large Umbers and ties, and
so on.. ' ' '
" If the market wants flooring and does
not want "dimension." the millman has
-Sm. .' . :.-,iS :
mat- vs-. ri rwirmT--MMianr irr no in ifirciafuliTnif :jjuQ jr iTQlLQtJwtnlWT
no such thing as "flooring logs' to fall
back on. He cuts as . they come from
the forest, taking from each the small
proportion .of ' flooring. But. 1 things
other than flooring won't sell, and so
the unsaleable piles up in the yard,
or is disposed of at a loss. To keep
in business, the millman has to put the
price of flooring where it will carry the
cost of the Whole operation,-or a major
part of it, and . that is almost what
happehs. . ; , .
XO VALUE AT MILL
; But, even in normal times mills pro
duce great quantities of stuff for which
there is no demand, even when the dis
tribution of mill products is "fairly even.
In one case, a mill burned up carloads
of small dimension stuff that if. placed
almost anywhere except in the mill yard,
would have had value. It would have
fenced t miles of farms or built acres
of pens but at the mill it had no value
and it cost less to ship barbwire to
the farmer than this lumber. Also, car
shortage will not let ; a millman ship
this 'stuff when he can't get cars for
the better grades.
From such stuff might be made candy
boxes, toys, packing material a ; thou
sand things but ,' they are not ; being
made, and so' the incinerator continues
to get his meals of good lumber and
refuse that has no value, only because
it isn't somewhere where it can do good.
, The opportunity for inventors and pio
neers is in developing some business
that will consume the wood waste at
the points of production. It's a big
joo. ror there s lota of it. but the- reward
to the successful one ought to be equal
ly big. - ; f - r. 4 ;
Construction Begun
On $750,000 Plant
Of American Can Co.
' Construction work was begun last
week on the new factory building of
the American Can company, located
on a tract recently purchased on
Twenty-sixth street between Howe and
Wilson. According to C. G. Pries, en
gineer in charge of the work, the plant
wu be ready for operation by Janu
ary I. Building permits calling, for the
expenditure of $704,000 were issued to
Pries last week and . the cost of .the
completed structure is estimated at
about $750,000.
The main building will be 80 by 300
feet in dimensions, three stories In
height, with basement. It will be of
reinforced concrete construction and ab
solutely fireproof. Five wide stairways
leading to exits on the main floor will
be accessible from all parts of the
building, and the city building' in
spector has also required the election
of two outside iron fire escapes. The
new plant will - manufacture cans for
Northwestern fruit, fish and milk can
neries and will ; employ about fc0() oper
atives. : V S -
CENTRAL.IA PLANS ,$33,000
HOME FOR' BOY SCOUTS
Centratia. July 17. Plans for. a home
for the Boy Scouts of this city, to be
erected at a cost of between $30,000
and $38,000, have been prepared by Hill,
Mock & Griffin, Chehalis architects, and
the possibility discussed of its construc
tion in Centralis. The plans call for a
splendidly equipped building with gym
nasium, standard plunge, shower baths,
lounging room with fireplace, and many
other conveniences ' and comforts for
the boys. A stage where local dramat
ics can be put on is planned for one
