': NEW OULKANS. May 27 Ami
H. Oxholm, Chief at tho Lumber
Division. I'. S. Department of Com
merce, .. in n statement laued from
Washington U. C. sets forth the
advantages to manufacturers, (iis-
tributers and the consuming p'thiic
of grade-marked lumber mi l com
ments on the system of ?rMle
marking recently instituted by the
Southern Pine Association's subscri
ber mills. Mr. Oxholm is regarded
as one ot the leadln.: wi't irltles on
grade-marking, he h?vn nude a
special study of the systems ued In
foreign countries and he asserts that
the pian of the Southern Pine As
sociation purposes all other grade-
maTklng methods In vogue oday.
In hi statement, J'.r. Oxholm 3.iy? :
"Orada-niarklug ct lumber, al
though originating with the manu
facturers will perhaps benefit the
publl; to the greatest extent. It
carried out in accordance with the
plan laid down, the grade-marking
of lumber will mean that any buy
er of Southern Pine grade-marked
lumber will have the assurance
that he is receiving that quality of
lumber for which he Is paying. The
grading rules constitute a' mysury
to nrost people except experts, and
what the average consumers under
stand by Nj. 1 quality" muy not
corresponds to No. 1 at the mill.
TUtt grade-marking practice will
imineraiora stimukate the correct
and mosr economical use ot wood.
The . consumer of grade-marked
lumber now will definitely know
how to make up his specifications
Intelligently and an inspection of
cue marks on the end of each piece
on. the pile will enable him to de
termine' whether he is receiving
what ho is paying tor.
"This will avoid tedious and ex
pensive turning over of each piece
of lumber. It is safe to assume
that any defective grading would
have been caught by the distribu
tors before it has reached the con
sumers. Distributors will find
thatv grade-marked lumber will sell
more readily: The, mark appearing
un the . end . of each piece will be
the most powerful advertising me
dium and the guarantee offered in
regard to integrity and uniformity
f grades will eliminate the per
centage of ri3k which.lt is cust
omary, to include in dealings with
unidentified . mills.
"The advantages to the manu
facturers will largely be in the na
ture ot as increased gocd will ;on j
the part of the comnmer and the
distribntors. Through a responsi
ble inspection organization the uni
formity of grades will be guaran
teed. The advantages obtained
through this feature alone will com
pensate for the small expense of a
few cents per thousand feet In the
grade-marking of lumber.
'The grade-marking of lumber
will therefore benefit consumers,
distributors . and manufacturers
alike.' It will raise the standard ot
ethics of the lumber industry and
trade, and last, but not leas,' it
will bo a necessary adjunct to tho
program of standardization ot lum
ber sites and grades, which has
been fostered unit promoted by the
Department of Commerce.
"The grnde-murklug ii lumber
is no new experiment. It hns been
successfully practiced In most of
tho leading foreign lumber prod
ucing countries of the world, but
the plan of the Southern Pine As
sociation In regard to tho gradc
marklng systems t lumber , has
surpassed nil other similar methods
abroad, us far ns Is known, both in
regard to completeness and in the
guunutteq which Is offered, '
