alAirOTACIPRB OF LUMBER
OltHfome Saw-Milla-Tho. Changes
ol a Century.
, Among the most marvelous of
" the many wonderful things which
distinguish the United States from
other nations, are the results which
have grown out of the possessions
of immense forests of valuable tim
ber, in stimulating inventivo gen
ius to the preparation of an article
of building material so cheap as to
enable the poorest to have a com
fortable home, while at the same
time of so excellent a character as
to be not only suited, but indis
pensable to the working classes.
Those more accessible regions of
the continent which possessed
these forest, growths in the great
est abundance were among the
first to recoivc large accessions to
their populations, drawn together
at those centers which presented
the easiest access to cheap build
ing material, not less than for their
personal safety from a ravage foe.
It was not until the demand for
lumber far exceeded the ability of
the "greatest" mills of half a cen
tury ago to supply, leading the
manufacturers to feel the need of
a more extended system of pro
duction, that the star of empire
made any progress westward, or it
became a possibility to settle upon
the prairies of the West, or to de
velop the mineral resources which
have alreaOy shown our nation to
be. the peer of, if -it does not ex
cel, all others in the oxtent of its
possessions. To possess is to need.
And the "cheap building material
which the cheap mills of the days
gone by enabled a scant popula
tion to utilize, stimulated a more
extended immigration, with its in
creased needs, as well as a higher
- order of inventive genius to in
crease the supply.
The mills of the olden tirao
were, first, tho windmill, with its
uncertain power, scarce exceeding
that of the men who ran the pit
saws which were then in a meas
uro superceded and whose indig
nation at the effort to lessen their
manual labor caused them to mob
the owner and tear down the ma
chinery. Second, the adaptation
of a current water wheel of scarce
ly greater power, if more reliable,
run by the natural current of a
small stream. Next caino the
simple flutter-wheel, to impart mo
tion to which required the build
ing of dams to hold large bodies
of water, which should at all times
be available. But for largo opera
tions tho flutter-wheel was found
to possess too little power, and the
overshot or undershot wheel be
came a necessity, to be superceded
later by the adaptation of turbine
wheels, now so much in favor with
mill owners who control water
power. For the first fifty years of
our national growth, as well as
during the preceding portion of
tho world's history, none of the
mills were equipped with anything
more than a single upright saw
working in a gate; and when
another saw was added, as the in
ceptive idea of the gang, which
quickly succeeded with its large
number of saws, words could
scarcely express tho astonishment
of all who saw the working of the
bold innovation.
Up to this time, all the lumber
which was manufactured had been
edged upon tho top of the log
after it was turned down; an aux
iliary saw was not thought of, for
tho buzz saw, just beginning to be
used, was considered a most dan
gerous piece of machinery. But
the increased manufacture grow-
. a. : .rj -. ,n
injr out ui mo nww- u
power and an increase in. the num
ber of saws, led to the introduc
tion of the small circular or "buzz"
saw, which was at once .found to
nearly doubla the capacity of the
mill. It is needless for us to en
large upon the introduction of
steam power in paw mills, or to fol
low the origin.il idea of an engine,
CxS inches, attached to tho lower
end of the pitman or saw gate,
through its successive Mages of de
velopment and enlargement to the
present time, when the Corliss, or
Estevs, or othor well-known en
gines, of power from ten to ono
hundred times greater capacity
than w.is the original device, are
by the thousand in number en
gaged in turning out lumber,
each in one season aggregating a
greater manufactuie than were all
the sawmill? of the country com
bined at a period scarcely fifty
years in the past.
The old gate 'aw was super
seded by the mulay, with a reduc
tion of frirtion equal tothiityor
fifty per rent, increase in cutting
capacity. The inula- gave way
to the circular, and with its intro
duction ma- bo dated the com
mencement of an era which has
been prolific of innovation, im
provement, and advantage to the
sawmill world. As the .use of the
circular became bettor understood,
and men became expert in so
dressing it as to make truo lines
and smooth surfaces, they found
themselves able to produce more
lumber in the rough tlun they
could properly edge and prepare
for market. The old edging-table
could not keep up with the cut of
tho saw. This was remedied by
the introduction of gang edgers,
which no mill doing any considera
ble business could now dispense
with. Now tho work of tho main
saw could be safely increased, for
tho gang, or as it was at first
known, ''doublo" edgen, was abun
dantly able- to keep pace with it,
and while at first a capacity equal
to 1,000 feet per hour was doubt
fully claimed, later developments
have shown in not a few instances
an entire season's work at the rate
of 6,000 feet per hour.
The increase in capacity called
for a more speedy movement of
handling the logs on the carriage,
and the lumber as it left tho saw,
and a. multitude of inventivo minds
were concentrated on mill dogs,
which should successfully take tho
place of the lever and pike, driven
by a mallet, and tho modern saw
mill could not now be operated
with tho original method ol gog
ging tho log. The "nigger," for
turning tho log on the carriage, as
well as rolling it on the skids, has
superceded tho cant hook and
muscular power formerly relied
upon, while the lumber, as it
leaves.the saw, drops upon a sys
tem of live rollers, which does the
work to much better advantage
than it was formerly accomplished
by a hard worked "off-bearer,"
who could not in these das by
any possibility keep up with tho
work which would crowd upon
him.
Plenty of lumber, cheaply manu
factured and sold at reuponable
prices, has enabled the settling up
of a nation at tho rate of nearly
fifty per cent, increase of popula
tion during each decade. This in
turn has demanded a network of
railroads, and carriage by them has
not as yet been reduced to a
science, which enables us to be
lieve that rates have reached a
minimum while they will realize
in the future. Tho manufacturer
of lumber, bearing this mind, must
reduce the weight of this product
to the lowest possible point, and
tho trimmer became a prime ne-
cessitv as an economizer, not less
than for an advantage in an
assthetic point of view. And tho
old gang mill, from its original
adaptation of two saws, hung in a
cumbrous frame, upon monstrous
-t&a
posts which headed in a weigh
beam, made from the largest stick
of timber which the lorest anorctca,
ana looted in mo mm inunuauons,
i-lmkinir the struotuie and the sur-'of
.fa .
rounatng countrv, and Keepinjrinej
machinery about ono half tho "time ,
in tho repair s.ho from its ever-
lasting jar, has been displaced" by
the neat, effectivo and eompara
tivelv noiseless device of more
modern times, developing a sawing
capacity of which tho fondest an
ticipation of the original inventor
of the idea had not tho remotest
conception. The heavy woigh
beatns !iav disappeared, the
monstrous wooden posts have
given way to equal advantageous
and strong but less cumbersome
and moro sightly iron supports,
resting upon loundations indepen
dent of those which support the
mill frame. Tho old, stiff, and
full of friction gato has been sup
erseded by oscillating slides giv
insr to the saws the same motion
which the pit sawyer seeks to ob-
tnin iii nrdnv to nneomnlish the!
most work with tho least outlay of j
strength.

all tho changes which a quarter of
a century has developed in the
sawmill, should a Kip V an in- j
kle of the last century be suddenly
awakened from his long sleep,
still dreaming of the last act of
dogging the log on his old-fashioned
carriage, in the old mill
whon he took long naps between
the cuts, and esteemed' a produc
tion of 1,000 feet per day some
thing to brag of, and open his eyes
on tho modern mill of the smallest
size, he would truly think that the
world had turned upsido down,
and If ho saw tho army of men
carrying off a quarter of a million
feet of boards per day from the
saws of some of the larger mills,
he would not believo the evidences
of his senses. All has changed;
the water wheel has given place to
tho stoam enginoj tho single small
cylinder boiler, to the monstrous
tubular or flue in large batteries;
the upright saw in a gate, to tho
mulay and the circular; the two
saw going, to a forty saw; the rag
wheel, to the steam feed, adding
countless possibilities to the ability
of the circular saw to cut up logs;
the single buzz saw, to- the double
edger; the rough end lumber, to
the wefi trimmed; the vast piles
of worthless ilabs, to a useful arti
cle of laths and pickets; and the
final debris, in many localities, to
usefulness in the manufacture of
other commercial -articles. Tho
pioneer knew nothing of lath and
shingle manufacture; live rods had
not entered his noddle; gang slab
cutters would have beon by him
pronounced an iuvention of the
devil to feed tbe flames of his in
satiable furnace. Endless chains
would have liad no use iu mill
economy; saw sharpeners audi
gununers would had no value in
his eyes, for ho could cut all tho
lumber he expected to, and find
plenty of time for dressing his
saws by hand.
Tiie modern sawmill is indeed
full of improvements, down to the
last device of sorting by machin
ery. The production in one day,
by one saw, of moro lumber than
was accounted tho work of a year
in former times, is not only tho
result of tho genius of invention
such as marks the spirit of tho ago,
but has rendered possible the re
markable development of the
youngest in tho sisterhood of na
tions, forming no unimportant fac
tor in tho influence of this country
among tho people of the oarth.
All hail to tho modorn sawmill,
and the wise intelligence ol nearly
every man who is connected, with
it either in the production of logs
frnm the forests or tho manufac-'
ture and sale of lumber, for each ,
